Queen Nation – AXS TV’s Worlds Greatest Tribute Band

Queen Nation-8QUEEN NATION

The band Queen Nation is a true tribute to the iconic band QUEEN.  It is one of the best performances by a Queen Tribute band that I have seen. Now you have to remember that the Rocman was and still is a huge Queen fan.

Since the death of Queen’s iconic front man, Freddy Mercury, Queen has only done a few shows. The show I caught a few years ago had Adam Lambert fronting the band.  So when given a chance to see Queen Nation motivation kicked in and off to the casino I went.  Talk about being blown away by the musical genius of this tribute to Queen.

Queen Nation-16Queen Nation has been featured on AXS TV as one of the best tribute bands in the world. Now we all know how great a performer Freddy was so I was very skeptical about the hype until they came out and I caught my first glimpse of singer Greg Finsley in all his glory. From the get go, I got hit with “Tie Your Mother Down” and was blasted back to the first time I witnessed Freddy sing this classic hit.

I found myself hooked from that very moment and the hits kept coming song after song was just as good. Guitar player Mike McManus Guitar /Vocals has the uncanny ability to channel Brian May the iconic guitarists of Queen and he didn’t miss a trick. The band was rounded out with members Parker Combs on Bass and Peter Burke on Drums/Vocals.

I can only say that Queen still resonates today with the help of this great tribute band. You can find them touring the country nonstop from their website:
