Based on 3 things...
*The setlist
*The voice
*The instruments
Setlist: Queen Extravaganza
Voice: Queen Nation
*(though admittedly I've only seen 4 tribute bands live, These guys barely beat out Sheer Heart Attack)
instruments: Queen+ Paul Rodgers/ Queen + Adam Lambert
"Come tonight! Come see the Overbite! Come to Ogre Battle, FIGHT!"

I think I actually entirely agree with that.

Why are you listing Queen+ as a tribute band?
^ like I said though, tribute bands are usually localized. Ive seen some good ones online but they usually lose a bit of credibility with doing the schtick, or an excessively fat Freddie/Brian. ... thick accents or whatever.

Even seen some good Korean covers, Then some truly awful ones too. But YouTube isn't as accurate as seeing em live.


Kinda strange third criteria though, "instruments" . Do you mean accuracy in terms of Queen equipment or just "instrumentation"?


I'm surprised I haven't seen any posters here who are IN Queen cover bands.
"Come tonight! Come see the Overbite! Come to Ogre Battle, FIGHT!"
Queen Extravaganza all the way.
Basically blind em and deaf em in the first 10 minutes, and while they are recovering from that put in the less good songs

Yeah!
It's not a true topic without at least a Brenski or Real Wizard retort. ...
"Come tonight! Come see the Overbite! Come to Ogre Battle, FIGHT!"
the Rory Gallagher Tribute band, with Gerry McAvoy.........on topic, I really dislike any if not all tribute bands trying to imitate Freddie, complete with false moustache, always dressed up in the Wembley '86 outfit, as if that was the only Freddie there ever was.

Favourite Queen tribute band? To me that's like asking who's your favourite mass murderer, or what's your favourite tropical disease....
