Two tribute bands, Simulation Muse and Sucker Love, play The Drill with covers of Muse, The Killers and Placebo.
Simulation Muse and Sucker Love are playing The Drill on Saturday 23 January 2027, a double bill of tribute acts. Simulation Muse focuses on Muse, and Sucker Love is a tribute to Placebo, so the night brings together two of the biggest names in British rock from the last few decades under one roof.
Simulation Muse has a bit of a history behind it. They started as ProtoStereo in 2014, and for a while they were a double tribute to Muse and The Killers. In 2019, that split into two separate bands: The Runaway Killers and Simulation Muse. Since then, they've worked as a dedicated Muse tribute, with frontman George Foster on vocals. They've spent years playing for corporate clients and venues across the country, and they describe themselves as one of the higher-quality modern rock cover bands, known for faithful renditions of the biggest hits from the last 20 years.
Sucker Love takes on the other half of the bill, with a set dedicated to Placebo. Between the two, you've got the spacey, theatrical side of Muse and the angular, indie-rock sound of Placebo, which should make for a full night of music. It's a double-header, so you're getting two bands for the price of one.

The venue is The Drill on Free School Lane, which holds around 500 people. It opened in 1890 as a drill hall and served as a military training facility before it was refurbished into a cultural hub for live music, theatre, comedy and community activities, with the historical character of the building kept intact. Doors open at 19:00, and tickets are £18.70 including fees.
