For a cover band sure, but a "tribute show" I associate more with trying to exactly match an experience no longer available (the tribute-ees are dead or aged out in some way). People aren't going to the Van Halen Tribute Show because they're really excited to see John Smith's creative reinterpretation of Eddie's guitar solos.
