Our first time seeing this Queen Tribute Act. I don't know whether it was an off night but Rob Comber as Freddie wasn't on particularly good form. His movements around the stage seemed forced and his voice was pitchy all night. He struggled with many of the vocals proving just how difficult Queen songs are to emulate. Christopher Gregory as Brian May was reasonable although he did insist on putting his own take on the solos. They didn't seem to get the point that people go to a tribute show to hear the music recreated and not re-interpreted, as Chris Cole (Mark Wahlberg) said to Xander Cummins (Nick Catanese) in the movie Rock Star. "You gotta play it exactly like the record".

Having said all that, the moment I dreaded all night came along when 'Freddie' announced the next song was to be Bohemian Rhapsody. Frankly, it was their best effort all night. They even managed to sing the operatic section live - with some help from a backing track but hey, Queen overdubbed that section to hell and back!

Overall a pretty good show although there were times when they sounded dolefully out of tune.
