Spite Tribute Bands
Since the original Kalamazoo band, Spite, dissolved, several musical groups have emulated Spites style and public persona. This even includes adoption of the original band name:
- In 1996 such a group formed in Charlotte, North Carolina.
- In 1999 a “Spite” group formed in west-vlaanderen, Belgium.
- In 2001 a group in Nürnberg Germany, adopter use of the "Spite" moniker and Instrumental style.
- Most recently a Devizes, Southwest, United Kingdom version formed in 2006.
These are to be regarded as tribute bands, rather than the original on reunion tours, since none of these more recent incarnations of Spite contain any of the original members.

Famous quotes containing the words spite, tribute and/or bands:
“When a man and a woman have an overwhelming passion for each other, it seems to me, in spite of such obstacles dividing them as parents or husband, that they belong to each other in the name of Nature, and are lovers by Divine right, in spite of human convention or the laws.”
—Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
“If it were not for the intellectual snobs who pay—in solid cash—the tribute which philistinism owes to culture, the arts would perish with their starving practitioners. Let us thank heaven for hypocrisy.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Nearly all the bands are mustered out of service; ours therefore is a novelty. We marched a few miles yesterday on a road where troops have not before marched. It was funny to see the children. I saw our boys running after the music in many a group of clean, bright-looking, excited little fellows.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
