Awe Denis thanks for including The Bjorn Identity as your favourite ABBA show. We know there are many great acts to choose. Hope to see you at a show soon!
We just went to see ‘Dreams of Fleetwood Mac’, I’m 64 years old, it’s the first time I’ve ever left after the end of the first half. Dreadful sound balance, singing out of key, the guitar player made so many mistakes it was embarrassing, the drum sound mix was just awful, you couldn’t hear the kick drum at all. The introductions were so lack lustre it sounded like they just couldn’t be bothered 😕🏴🇬🇧🙏
There are many who dismiss tribute bands and wouldn’t go to see them. I on the other hand appreciate them for what they do, keep the music live and make it accessible. I saw Brit Floyd a few years ago at Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury, they were excellent. I have also seen other tribute bands not listed here who were equally good.
Special mention for The Musical Box who replicate the early Genesis concerts of the Peter Gabriel era. Using original props donated to them by Genesis, the concert experience is so spot on one would think that had been transported back in time
Great list, this. I believe that once you've seen a really good tribute, that experience stays with you.... Especially if you bring home the obligatory cd, dvd, or t-shirt. Rumours are amazing (3 times), not seen Brit Floyd, but the light show looks stunning. Think Floyd are fabulous, met them 3 times after their shows, very humble and accurate performances. One tribute that needs a mention... The Illegal Eagles. Seen them 3 times, they have always been brilliant... Nice post 👍
Australian Pink Floyd are absolutely amazing and I say there both as good as each other. Witnessed both and I have to say I prefer APF with there production and quality but Brit Floyd are just as special. Awesome 🙌
Oh yes. This collection of tribute bands is so good. I enjoyed them all. I have come across a few other ones myself. For ABBA, Bjorn Again, 1998 ,Royal Albert Hall, take some beating. And ,a guy called Stevie Ricks for Elvis, ( The Impossible Dream etc) Plus, my favourite Beatles tribute, The Fab Four, imo, are superb. But the Bootleg Beatles are SO good too.
Massive Floyd fan, have seen Aussie Pink Floyd at Leeds Arena and they were amazing, will have to try catch Brit Floyd next time, although Dave Gilmour had Aussie Floyd play at his 50th and said they were probably better than us.
Saw Bootleg Beatles in 2019, they used a photo from an early Manchester gig, the 72 year old lady sitting next to us was on the photo, she was 16 at the time! Awesome!
My local club has regular tribute bands Absolute Bowie. Bootleg Blondie, The Feelgood Band, Small Fakers, Limehouse Lizzie seen loads of tribute bands some really very very good the standard these days is usually very high. Years back they were seen almost more like parodies but in the last 20 or so years it’s become a serious thing as audiences expect a top show.
Agree with the list. I’ve seen many of these acts ‘ they are tremendous. Another vote for T-Rextacy they are brilliant. Plus, if you get chance, can highly recommend the following:- ColdPlace The Fillers Oye Santana Counterfeit Stones Logical Tramp Who’s Who
I have seen both Rumours: Fleetwood Mac Tribute at the Concourse in Knoxville, Tennessee and Brit Floyd at the Tennessee Theatre in Knoxville, Tennessee and I will have to say that those are two of the best tribute bands that I have seen. I have also seen The Pink Floyd Experience at the Tennessee Theatre in Knoxville, Tennessee about 15 years ago I think 2007 or 2008 and Australian Pink Floyd Show at the Fox Theatre in like 2007 and those were great tribute bands. I also have seen two Journey Tribute Bands that I am a huge fan of now.... Departure and Resurrection both great Tribute Bands. I saw Departure at the Shed in late September or early October of 2021 and I saw Resurrection at Cotton Eyed Joe in like 2019! I'm going to see a Queen Tribute called Kings of Queen on April 29th, 2022 at the Open Chord in Knoxville, Tennessee and For Those About to Rock: AC/DC Tribute on May 13th, 2022 at the Open Chord in Knoxville, Tennessee. I'm also going to see Big Gun AC/DC Tribute tonight, April 2nd, 2022 at the Shed in Maryville, Tennessee, Kid Kentucky: Kid Rock Tribute on April 23rd, 2022 at the Shed in Maryville, Tennessee, and Tuesday's Gone: Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute on April 30th, 2022 at the Shed in Maryville, Tennessee. I'm also going to see Hotel California: A Tribute to the Eagles on April 9th, 2022 at the Knoxville Auditorium in Knoxville, Tennessee. I'm also thinking about going to see On The Border: A Tribute to the Eagles on May 6th, 2022 at the Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center in Townsend, Tennessee, Jim Curry: A Tribute to John Denver on September 23rd, 2022 at the Great Smoky Mountain Heritage Center in Townsend, Tennessee, and Fleetwood Gold: A Tribute to Fleetwood Mac on October 7th, 2022 at the Great Smoky Mountain Heritage Center in Townsend, Tennessee. You are right, though, that Brit Floyd and Rumours of Fleetwood Mac are two of the best Tribute Bands around!
I agree have seen these twice the looks the mannerisms, the banter and more importantly the sound is exactly what I would expect the Beatles live to be like.
The Floyd Effect, Livewire AC/DC, UK Foo Fighters, Limehouse Lizzy, all most excellent bands, but have to agree RFM / Brit Floyd are for up there for me
I have a few I would recommend... Not come across Brit Floyd in our part of the world... I see Think Floyd every time they tour, they sound very precise. Bootleg Blondie is pretty good, their Debbie Harry is Shani Wallis' daughter (Nancy from Oliver!) and they look and sound the part. As for the Number one Tribute.... Go to youtube and look for The Classic Rock Show. Its a sister band to Rumours of Fleetwood Mac. As in they tour different times of the year, but use the same stage set and screens. Jess who is RFM's Stevie Nicks also sings in CRS and the last two tours have included Pete Thorn on Guitar, great guitarist from LA who is a Guitarist's Guitar channel maker on RUclips... watch the video of him playing Van Halen's Eruption and your jaw will drop. Highly recommended. But I love a good tribute!
Brit Floyd, The Classic Rock Show and Rumours of Fleetwood all belong to the same stable i.e. CMP Entertainment. Emily Gervers who plays Christine McVie in Rumours of Fleetwood Mac was also a member of Brit Floyd and the Classic Rock Show There has been various line ups over the years but without a doubt they are three of the best touring bands out there all having superb musicians and have been for some time. Yes Pete Thorn is right up there but so was Howie G before him and James Cole is also top notch as are all the guitarists accross in the different bands . I fully accept that everyone has their own personal favourites however the quality of musicianship and performance that exists across all the above bands is at another level which in turn is supported by their ever increasing popularity and long may it continue. At te end of the day if it makes you feel better then it is good.. Rock on
Yes, Liliac isn’t actually a tribute band, they’re a band that does some covers, especially anything Ronnie James Dio. That is because the lead singer, Melody, was mostly influenced by Dio and she does sound like a female version of Dio. They’re all siblings and every one of them are super talented, especially Melody, who is really their gold. She is the star. Besides doing covers, they have released a couple of albums of original songs they’ve written. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a family band as talented as they are?
Bootleg Beatles....one of the best, most musically accurate tribute bands there is. If you get the chance to see them do yourself a favour and do so you won't be disappointed
There is probably not a lot to choose between the top two. Both put on a superb show, but since I prefer FWM, I would have to go with RFM. However, I think Paul Metcalfe rates higher.
Hi Brian, Thanks for your comments.. as I said in my video, these ten tribute artists are all first class and give a great nights entertainment. Everybody will have their own idea of placement.. Cheers
cant disagree with most of the list,,,,except,my opinion,,,the best tribute band ever is THE FAB FOUR! the look and sound exactly like the originals! from the early days till the very end,they are the closest thing you will ever get to the real Beatles in their prime!
Good list though I think Lenoid and Friends should have been at least #2 for "Chicago" Rumors of Fleet Mac. you only played one song everyone else had at least two. LEONID AND FRIENDS MUST BE IN THERE
I posted this, then saw your post. I heartily agree. The singer , Serge, is in Kyev now. Stupid war. "Check out 'Leonid and Friends'. These are stellar musicians from Russia AND Ukraine that were brought together by a top studio engineer and musician (Leonid). They play Chicago songs better than Chicago. I know...bold statement. (They also do E,W & F pretty great too.) But just check them out (and their unique history and how they are dealing with this horrible war.) They are amazing. ruclips.net/video/EW3Aftwt5eY/видео.html "
You need to check out Mr. Speed who is a KISS tribute band that is spot on in everyway, And as far as an ELVIS tribute please check out Shawn Klush he is as spot on as you can get. . . . . . .I can post links if needed. . . . . . .
If you make a living from being a tribute or copycat of any artist, I don't think age comes in to it.. I think "Tribute" is a nicer term instead of "CopyCat"...Any I have saw over the past number of years have been very talented musicians. Not everybody with talent gets fame and fortune. Thanks for your comment...
I think potentially tribute bands might be more popular as the original bands die off or retire because there will be generations that get turned on two bands that they like that they won't be able to see now it's not going to be as huge as the original but if the originals were big enough then it'll transfer over a little and musicians will be able to make an okay live and maybe by doing that but you got a really have your s*** together and do it right if it's going to be alright but tribute bands that play while the original act is still out and touring and doing their thing is pretty f****** weird. And really cheesy if it's not real good and even if it's real good I don't know. I've seen a couple that were pretty mind-blowing what are the best ones I've seen and I don't mean in person cuz live music pastor really be something to impress me cuz I'm a musician been there done that. I saw the Aeromyth band on RUclips and that Steven Tyler guy was pretty freaking good as was the band and they all kind of cop the look and like I said the Tyler character had every part of it very very well. the escape journey tribute the singer did Perry pretty darn good sometimes he was a little over the top with the classic Perry phrasing but still pretty damn good. I wonder what the original acts think when they see that? I assume there flattered but I'm sure they think it's weird and then of course if they're not getting paid for it there slightly if not greatly pissed!
Not being in anyway negative on tribute bands but there is only one outstanding tribute band and that is Rumours of Fleetwood Mac they are outstanding.
I'm sorry (actually, I'm not) but Rumours Of Fleetwood Mac win this by a MILE!!! that's not to say any of the others aren't good, they are, but Rumours are the best by a country MILE, they're the only ones who match those they're tributing. They're number ONE... by a LONG WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe the choice of clip was a poor one but 'Flash Harry' sounded average in terms of their ability to mimic Queen [particulalry the singer] have you never heard Mark Martel?

Awe Denis thanks for including The Bjorn Identity as your favourite ABBA show. We know there are many great acts to choose. Hope to see you at a show soon!
Really great selection! Some awesome bands. Hopefully one day you can come and see us...
Thanks for Watching.. If you are ever playing Northern Ireland.......I will be there..
Good compilation. Having seen them in person, Rumors of Fleetwood Mac is far an away the best I have heard
Agreed. Not even close.
We just went to see ‘Dreams of Fleetwood Mac’, I’m 64 years old, it’s the first time I’ve ever left after the end of the first half. Dreadful sound balance, singing out of key, the guitar player made so many mistakes it was embarrassing, the drum sound mix was just awful, you couldn’t hear the kick drum at all. The introductions were so lack lustre it sounded like they just couldn’t be bothered 😕🏴🇬🇧🙏
Have seen Brit Floyd twice..would pay to see them over and over again
Aussie Pink Floyd are better… trust me. They are note perfect
Seen them 6 times, everytime they improve if that's possible, perfect recreation of classic tunes
There are many who dismiss tribute bands and wouldn’t go to see them. I on the other hand appreciate them for what they do, keep the music live and make it accessible. I saw Brit Floyd a few years ago at Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury, they were excellent. I have also seen other tribute bands not listed here who were equally good.
ROFM by a country mile. By far the best I've heard.
Agreed. I saw them recently. They were phenomenonal.
TALON a British tribute to The Eagles are worth going to see, brilliant sound. 👍🙏🏴🇬🇧♥️
Special mention for The Musical Box who replicate the early Genesis concerts of the Peter Gabriel era. Using original props donated to them by Genesis, the concert experience is so spot on one would think that had been transported back in
time
The Musical box are the best I've ever seen so accurate.
Elo experience are brilliant, saw them at butlins, tight band great sound ,strings etc were excellent
Great list, this. I believe that once you've seen a really good tribute, that experience stays with you.... Especially if you bring home the obligatory cd, dvd, or t-shirt. Rumours are amazing (3 times), not seen Brit Floyd, but the light show looks stunning. Think Floyd are fabulous, met them 3 times after their shows, very humble and accurate performances. One tribute that needs a mention... The Illegal Eagles. Seen them 3 times, they have always been brilliant... Nice post 👍
Brit Floyd are excellent, it's not just the music as they back it up with a great stage show.
Australian Pink Floyd are absolutely amazing and I say there both as good as each other. Witnessed both and I have to say I prefer APF with there production and quality but Brit Floyd are just as special. Awesome 🙌
Bootleg Beatles and Australian pink floyd are my favourites
Seen rumours of Fleetwood Mac twice now boy did they nail it,I play guitar but these guys are on another level,the two ladies ain’t too bad 🥰either🎸😘
Limehouse Lizzy (Thin Lizzy) tribute, always put on a good show, James Roberts on lead guitarist is amazing.
Oh yes. This collection of tribute bands is so good. I enjoyed them all. I have come across a few other ones myself. For ABBA, Bjorn Again, 1998 ,Royal Albert Hall, take some beating. And ,a guy called Stevie Ricks for Elvis, ( The Impossible Dream etc) Plus, my favourite Beatles tribute, The Fab Four, imo, are superb. But the Bootleg Beatles are SO good too.
Outstanding choices, and may I offer for your listening and viewing pleasure, Fleetwood Masque, Eclipse and #11 - Dire Strats?
Thank you Denis! 😎👍
Massive Floyd fan, have seen Aussie Pink Floyd at Leeds Arena and they were amazing, will have to try catch Brit Floyd next time, although Dave Gilmour had Aussie Floyd play at his 50th and said they were probably better than us.
The counterfeit stones are class. Seen loads over the years, Jean Genie, Dirty DC, Fleetwood Bac, Just Floyd are probably my favourites.
Check out T-Rextasy, only tribute approved by Marc Bolans family. Mickey Finn and Tony Visconti have played as guests. Nuff said.
Saw Bootleg Beatles in 2019, they used a photo from an early Manchester gig, the 72 year old lady sitting next to us was on the photo, she was 16 at the time! Awesome!
Good list of Tribute Band.I have seen Rumors of Fleetwood Mac and they were amazing but I think the line up was differant.
Wow an Adele tribute band, i didn't know it existed
Also for QUEEN.. Marc Martel is absolutely the Best He's a Clone of Freddie!!
My local club has regular tribute bands Absolute Bowie. Bootleg Blondie, The Feelgood Band, Small Fakers, Limehouse Lizzie seen loads of tribute bands some really very very good the standard these days is usually very high.
Years back they were seen almost more like parodies but in the last 20 or so years it’s become a serious thing as audiences expect a top show.
Agree with the list. I’ve seen many of these acts ‘ they are tremendous.
Another vote for T-Rextacy they are brilliant. Plus, if you get chance, can highly recommend the following:-
ColdPlace
The Fillers
Oye Santana
Counterfeit Stones
Logical Tramp
Who’s Who
I have seen both Rumours: Fleetwood Mac Tribute at the Concourse in Knoxville, Tennessee and Brit Floyd at the Tennessee Theatre in Knoxville, Tennessee and I will have to say that those are two of the best tribute bands that I have seen.

Thanks Brian for watching. A lot of people frown on tribute bands but the best tribute bands have amazing musicians in their right...Cheers..
Brit Floyd fantastic, Rumours of fwm good, best of all The classic rock show
Love this list!!! Chuffed to see Bjorn Identity and Flash Harry on the list!! 😃
Thanks Mairead, we have some great talent here in Northern Ireland.. Thanks for watching..
Bootleg Beatles I have seen a few times they are great. Maybe the best tribute band out there.
I agree have seen these twice the looks the mannerisms, the banter and more importantly the sound is exactly what I would expect the Beatles live to be like.
Great collection but I’d have to put Talon in there somewhere
100% Agree, the very best Eagles tribute by a mile 👍🙏🏴🇬🇧♥️
The Musical Box...early genesis tribute, Zepparella...all Female Zep tribute
Queen Nation is fantastic ! The guy playing Freddie even plays the keyboards.
The Floyd Effect, Livewire AC/DC, UK Foo Fighters, Limehouse Lizzy, all most excellent bands, but have to agree RFM / Brit Floyd are for up there for me
I was in a Status Quo tribute band,Unfortunately we had to pack it in after the guy who knew Eminor left.
I knew what your Number 1 was before I knew!!
Los Endos for Genesis trib for Trick of the Tail type stuff and Think Floyd are spot on musically. Their lighting is better now as well.
Was the Adele tribute by Becky Porter? Saw her in concert, amazing
No, it wasn't her. Can't remember the name of girl... Sorry.
Australian doors were brilliant,Australian pink Floyd,fleetwood Mac,the complete stone roses.
Wish their was an Inxs tribute.
Complete Stone Roses were even better than the real thing but some who have seen the original band live might think that would not be too difficult.
Lets Zep Aussie Pink Floyd Limehouse Lizzy and Livewire( AC/DC) all excellent 👌
I have a few I would recommend... Not come across Brit Floyd in our part of the world... I see Think Floyd every time they tour, they sound very precise. Bootleg Blondie is pretty good, their Debbie Harry is Shani Wallis' daughter (Nancy from Oliver!) and they look and sound the part. As for the Number one Tribute....

Couple of bands to check out in the UK , MAMA a Genesis Phil collins tribute and Stilmarillion a fabulous early Marillion tribute
Ballroom Blitz Sweet tribute. Would love to see them.
Saw one ,very interesting, young group called "Liliac " not bad
It’s Liliac if you’re referring to the kids group that does hard rock, heavy metal covers like Black Sabboth, Dio and others.
Just saw Liliac! They were great. They have great originals too!
Jealous AF
Yes, Liliac isn’t actually a tribute band, they’re a band that does some covers, especially anything Ronnie James Dio. That is because the lead singer, Melody, was mostly influenced by Dio and she does sound like a female version of Dio.
They’re all siblings and every one of them are super talented, especially Melody, who is really their gold. She is the star. Besides doing covers, they have released a couple of albums of original songs they’ve written. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a family band as talented as they are?
The Bowie Experience are ones not to miss.
A lot of tribute bands use the band name and then add 'Experience'. What does a Jimi Hendrix tribute do?
Lol!!
Bootleg Beatles....one of the best, most musically accurate tribute bands there is. If you get the chance to see them do yourself a favour and do so you won't be disappointed
Billy Mac Thanks for watching. This video is my choice only from bands i have saw live.. Bootleg indeed are a great Tribute Act. Cheers....
So the title should have been 'The best tribute bands I have ever seen'.
Never heard of the Analogues?
@@henkbangma3015 If you watched until the end, I stated that.. Thanks for watching..
There is probably not a lot to choose between the top two. Both put on a superb show, but since I prefer FWM, I would have to go with RFM. However, I think Paul Metcalfe rates higher.
Hi Brian, Thanks for your comments.. as I said in my video, these ten tribute artists are all first class and give a great nights entertainment. Everybody will have their own idea of placement.. Cheers
The Australian Pink Floyd Show is better, but the absolute best is Zep Boys!
Brit Flyod have a gift as a tribute band that is very rare
Brit Floyd for sure, they are incredible.
Gary Mullen & The Works - Best Queen tribute act.
In my opinion Analogues (Beatles) is the best one. Nice list tho.
Thanks for comment, however my list is from bands i have saw personally... Cheers
@@DenisSmyth1951 thanks for recommending Brit Floyd to me. PF is my favourite band but I haven't heard about Brit Floyd so far. They are amazing.
Why Not Leonid and Friends ????? The best of All!!
Hi Jerry, thanks for watching. This video is based on bands that I have saw Live and a lot of the footage I shot myself....Cheers.
What about Ozzmosis and Hells Bells?
Talon is a brilliant eagles tribute act
all bands fantastic
Thanks for watching Barry
Best Queen tribute band = Mother Mercury (B)
I am not a Queen fan but Gary Mullen and the works get my vote as a great Queen tribute band.
Almost Queen.is my favorite cover for Queen
I think you have seen dozens
Just seen Rumors of Fleetwood Mac. The new singer (Stevie Nicks) is unbelievably good.
cant disagree with most of the list,,,,except,my opinion,,,the best tribute band ever is THE FAB FOUR! the look and sound exactly like the originals! from the early days till the very end,they are the closest thing you will ever get to the real Beatles in their prime!
Hi Chris, thanks for watching. As I said in my video, my choices come from bands I have seen live many times....... Cheers
the musical box should be on here. When they played bristol Peter Gasbriel went.
From the Jam?? wow!!
The Musical Box are the ultimate 'tribute' band. They really try to be early Genesis.
no patelvis ???
Good list though I think Lenoid and Friends should have been at least #2 for "Chicago" Rumors of Fleet Mac. you only played one song everyone else had at least two. LEONID AND FRIENDS MUST BE IN THERE
I posted this, then saw your post. I heartily agree. The singer , Serge, is in Kyev now. Stupid war. "Check out 'Leonid and Friends'.

Adelle looked like her but didnt sound like her
I seen duran duran tribute band .I must say thay where fab .
Any fans of Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, check out Rainbow Knights.
Live Wire (AC/DC) and Whole Lotta Led (Led Zeppelin)
T.Rextasy are superb too & for any Kate Bush fans out there check out the excellent Cloudbusting.
Seen trextasy 3 times, excellent band!!👍👍👏👏
You need to check out Mr. Speed who is a KISS tribute band that is spot on in everyway, And as far as an ELVIS tribute please check out Shawn Klush he is as spot on as you can get. . . . . . .I can post links if needed. . . . . . .
#Warren Thanks for comment. This list of my choices was from the dozens of Tribute bands I have personally attended their shows..
Brit Floyd ......The closest thing to Pink Floyd out of all the tribute Bands out there
For a Queen tribute band, you can't beat Gary Mullen and the Works.
Not a fan of Pink Floyd but I always there the Australian Pink Floyd show were the best Pink Floyd tribute show but then what do I know.
Trextasy t rex tribute very good
👍👍
Just came across this my no1 is the Australian pink flyod
@charlesquinn8746 thanks for watching . Have seen both live. Great bands. Although I think Brit Floyd just made it for me....
Bon jovi experience fantastic band
Fragile, Yes tribute band.
Adele is young alive and well . off limits for tribute
If you make a living from being a tribute or copycat of any artist, I don't think age comes in to it.. I think "Tribute" is a nicer term instead of "CopyCat"...Any I have saw over the past number of years have been very talented musicians. Not everybody with talent gets fame and fortune.

check out fleetwood mask....
I think potentially tribute bands might be more popular as the original bands die off or retire because there will be generations that get turned on two bands that they like that they won't be able to see now it's not going to be as huge as the original but if the originals were big enough then it'll transfer over a little and musicians will be able to make an okay live and maybe by doing that but you got a really have your s*** together and do it right if it's going to be alright but tribute bands that play while the original act is still out and touring and doing their thing is pretty f****** weird.

I've seen live wire ac DC tribute band 4 times and free and company a free and bad co tribute in sheffield 👍
Clearly Barry Steele as Roy Orbison is a cut above any of the others.
I agree with the top 2 but I've seen better with some of the others
@nickey.. Thanks for watching. I can only make this list from bands that I have personally been to see..
Noone is better than the Analogues. They sing all the trax the Beatles never did live.
plese listen Hybrid theory
Not a fan of ABBA but Bjorn again are the best Abba tribute band.
Nice video. Update date it and add another 10. I want you yo check out KICKS THE INXS Experience Tribute band.
Ralph thanks for watching. This list of bands , is that I have personally saw live.....
Not being in anyway negative on tribute bands but there is only one outstanding tribute band and that is Rumours of Fleetwood Mac they are outstanding.
Rumours Of Fleetwood Mac and Brit Floyd joint firsxt !!!!!
Harry Cambridge great Luther Vandross tribute
ELO experience are incredible
This Adele pre liposuction 🤔
I was surprised there's no eagles tribute on the list.
Pam, thanks for watching. This list is based on bands that I have actually been to see "Live". So have not saw an Eagles Tribute yet......
I'm sorry (actually, I'm not) but Rumours Of Fleetwood Mac win this by a MILE!!! that's not to say any of the others aren't good, they are, but Rumours are the best by a country MILE, they're the only ones who match those they're tributing. They're number ONE... by a LONG WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
LImehouse Lizzy???
Maybe the choice of clip was a poor one but 'Flash Harry' sounded average in terms of their ability to mimic Queen [particulalry the singer] have you never heard Mark Martel?
