I saw them when they came through in 2021. OK, but you are correct about the "Fake Freddie". Nice guy, but not really an even close replica.

For my money, another tribute band "Almost Queen" is far superior. I saw them a couple of times when I lived up north, and they really pull it off. If interested, here is a clip of them doing "Love of my Life". If you run it next to the actual Queen clip where it was performed live, it is chilling how close it comes to the real thing. Unfortunately, they stick around the NE mostly, so not ever expecting to see them here.
