I was there. ^ had fun chatting with the peeps in line. FOR THREE & 1/2 HOURS!
I was gonna chime in and joke that I'd almost been "sleeping on the sidewalk" waiting. ..but thought better.
I should've gotten there at 2 or something.Brian seemed more sociable. I'm glad he was in good spirits.
Asked him about Macbeth...also how much i appreciated hearing all the ROCK in the NOTW show. ..It's late, SYW and all that.
Dude has a monstrously firm (and large) handshake.
By the time i got in, my phone was dead. So no photos

Did you buy the 3-D book? Glad you got to meet him!
Well. It's not quite as good as meeting someone. If you meet someone casually you can have a good rapport and exchange ideas. This was a signing and a howdy doo. Plenty of people were just sharing admiration and i can see it had a positive effect.
As a self appointed delegate for the upcoming U.K. Tour. .i made sure to chime in how refreshing it was to hear "deep cuts" on this Tour.
That's the truth, and not outright criticism for dropping them.
I'd been to one of his signings before. This one was more personal if that could be said. Although any memorabilia was scorned, and/or temporarily confiscated.
I had to leave my nephew's FUTURE guitar (a Brian May guitars left handed red special) outside the front door before entering the line IN store.
Fortunately it was a single focused kind of crowd and anybody having to do so did it without incident
I kinda regretted not being prepared again. ..i should have worn a John Deacon mask or dressed up as a badger just for entertainment purposes.
Had the guitar not been a left handed guitar i might have dared to bring my Roland micro cube and entertain
I see you are not a newbie and have met him before. I hope he listened to and includes the two NOTW songs at the U.K. shows, I was thinking about buying the 3-D book that was on display but bought a t-shirt and program instead.

Glad you enjoyed your day,
On reflection what you should have done was hand him a set list, with more deep cuts/classic album tracks, and say play this for the rest of the tour or the Badgers get it!!
