Recent news that Queen will be touring this summer with frontman Adam Lambert caused a mixture of reactions from fans of the classic rock icons. It's just so difficult to imagine Brian May shredding next to someone other than Freddie Mercury.

No, they aren't exactly the same -- but there's something magical about hearing your favorite tunes from yesteryear sung with the same enthusiasm you have while belting them out alone in your living room. It's also way less expensive than all those stadium seats.
Along with Queen, we gathered up tribute groups rocking Beatles mop-tops, Elvis' blue suede shoes and a few other sharply dressed men or women found in between.
