This is one of my all time favorite photos of Queen, of Freddie, of Brian, (in this case the 2 performing together), and ...of their performance at Live Aid.
It totally epitomizes the pantheon fire and electricity of their performance. Dazzling! link
Arlene my dear,
Now tell me... look at Mr. Mercury ...
He's a star.
You can tell by the look on Brian's face everything he is thinking..and that is:
"I'm Brian May, I'm a good guitarist, no, I'm a damn good guitarist... and a I am rock star in every sense of the word... but I must admit, its fucking great to be in a band with that man right there... he's a legend, and the 4 of us are up here blowing everyone else off this stage".
Yep, that was what he was thinking. :->
