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.

I've seen neither Absolute Queen nor Almost Queen. But as good as they may be, they'll never be able to come even close to Freddy Mercury either as a singer or a showman. The man was in a class by himself.
