T-Rextasy ... Hackney, East London. The venue sold out with new and old T.Rex fans, including ex-T.Rex drummer, Bill Legend. Today, of course, T.Rextasy are not only hailed as one of the highest acclaimed tribute bands on the scene, but are also known as one of the few bands that actually play without the aid of samplers, backing tapes, and wigs!

Newest Review: ... but the look of T-Rex and in particular Marc Bolan.Bands like this are vary rar their ability to be able combine visual talant with the ability to play their instruments like the originals a fantastic show to say that the evening was electric would probably be an understatement.As we waited for the band to come on to the stage at 21:15 i looked around at the sell out crowd eagerly waiting for ... more
