I dont think that Brian feels frustrated, he is a professional. isn't the first time. Besides, in many times Brian's guitar disconect or Freddie's micro not working. That things just happens.
Sorry for my english.
The best part is how he's laughing at the fact that it happened again during the solo... and with the lighting, the laughing, the horrible sounds.. he looks like a complete madman for a few seconds there. Priceless.

I know from experience Brian does get frustrated because of these things. During a BM gig in Germany in 98 something went wrong on stage, i forgot what it was. But Brian got so frustrated by this he kicked a cooling fan which was standing next to his monitor.
But there's nothing wrong with that. It's totally human to get frustrated a bit. Especially when you're such a perfectionist as Brian.
In Frankfurt last year, after Brian broke a string during the guitarsolo in Bo Rhap, he got realy pissed off, just stopped playing completely and THREW away the guitar and just walked off stage.
(Ha Ayreon!)

Are you sure about that? Because from what I remember him saying on his website, that didnt happen. What he said was that he couldnt hear his monitor and so he lost control over when the solo was to begin. It was because of that that he lost it.
Yes, I am sure. 100% - it happened rigt before my eyes. No question.
Brian can say what he wants - he's been giving proof of very bad memory lots of times lately ;-)
Besides: listen to the bootlegs out there - first part of the solo is as right as it has always been - then all of the sudden it's *knack* and he's gone.

Hey, Brian's guitar breaking isn't as big of a deal as Freddie's Microphone breaking, because Freddie throws a tantrum and once stabbed John in the ribs back in November '74 with it when it wasnt working.
