Anyone see Brian May with My Chemical Romance at Reading?
« on: August 29, 2011, 09:31:55 PM »
Just watched MCR from Friday night and he joined them for the encore - We Will Rock Rock You and Black Parade.

Looking at his face and how much he moved around the stage, he freakin' loved it!

Sorry, that was a bit random.


I get the impression Mr May loves playing live and is always ready to do a guest spot with just about anyone who asks.  Good for him!  :D

It was quality!

I'm not an MCR fan but I sat at the back and watched this because there was nothing good on.
After the encore this old dude came on, causing me to say "It's Brian $%&#ing May!". Gerard Way then grabbed the mic and pronounced "it's Brian $%&#ing May!"

Brian $%&#ing May proceeded to rock out, almost made watching the rest of the set worth it  :lol:

He also played with Motorhead on their 25th anniversary.

I also saw some very, very early Queen footage.  He was really rippin' it up.

I have nothing but respect for Brain May.

If they ever do an 'It Might Get Loud Part II' Brian May should be in it.

Just Brian May playing guitar for 2 hours. Lord knows I'd watch that on repeat for years!!

Oh yes! I'd watch it. It would be interesting to know whether he'd consider doing it though - I have a feeling he sees himself as a "one-trick pony" on the guitar and doesn't regard himself in quite the same way as the rest of us do.

How about:

Brian May
Angus Young
Hank Marvin

I'd buy a copy!

IŽd rather have one be:
Brian May
Tony Iommy
Trent Reznor

Keep a fresh face in the mix (like White was)...maybe a little too off though, but I think Reznor is a genious musician and a great guitarist in his own regard (like White was).

Another one would be:
Uli John Roth
Steve Vai
Omar Rodriguez Lopez
BKPs in use: 10th set / RY set / Holy Diver b, Emerald n / Crawler bridge, Slowhand mid MQ neck/ Manhattan n
On the sidelines: Stockholm b / Suppermassive n, Mule n, AM set, IT mid

My son's best friend was at Reading on the Friday. He is not particularly an MCR or Brian May fan but so impressed he phoned my son as the set was finishing.

Looks like he's been busy lately as he's just done a live performance with Lady Gaga.

Not sure who's the carer and who's the cared-for in that situation....

Yeah, in that case you could say Brian has gotten himself involved in one of modern psychiatry's more perplexing cases.
