Brian May reveals "the worst decision" Queen ever made
In a past documentary interview, Brian May, the guitarist of Queen, remembered the band's "worst decision" during its rise to stardom.
"On a fair day in 1838, barely two years into Queen Victoria’s reign [...] a young, confident and handsome Mississauga Ojibway chief named Kahkewaquonaby [...] came knocking at the doors of Windsor Castle dressed in his finest leather from head to toe and asked to make an appeal to his Sovereign. The door was opened and tea and sympathy were offered. [...] The Queen promised to look into the request and in due course the deeds were handed over."
Finally got to see Audra McDonald sing live today!! 🎶🤩
Only 25+ years after I first heard her revelatory Carry Pipperidge on the cast album for the 1994 Broadway revival of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Carousel 😍
I might have nearly burst into tears when she opened with "I Am What I Am" (La Cage aux Folles) & "Mister Snow" (Carousel) 😅
Annd anyway, this concert & Audra were everything that I wanted today 😌
These are bloody marvellous. Marci G DiMarco playing snippets from Queen songs on his custom Brian May replica guitar. Samples below. Many more on his YouTube channel.
