[kj] KJ 2010 Tour Support:

Apparently some time after The Jam split, Rick Buckler formed a tribute band called The Gift.  Eventually he was joined by Bruce Foxton.

I think that's a pretty cool tribute band.

But this isn't even them -- this is a RevCo TRIBUTE band (albeit one featuring one of the original members). That's the sad part. 
 
RevCo back in its heyday (circa "Attack Ships on Fire" through BEERS, STEERS & QUEERS) were great.
