I've actually been offered some tickets a few times thats not what I'm worried about it's wheter making a 6 hour trip to london is worth it. I'm sure it is just wondering if any board members have been to it.

I have. It was. Roger Taylor was there.


I've had dinner with Roger Taylor in his house. So it is worth it, how long is it?

My mum was part of a group who were doing a charity event in Falmouth and as Roger lives near there he must of heard and he offered to help out with a donation. Anyway in the end they raised a fair amount of money and to celebrate he offered them to come round to dinner. So I went as Mum's guest as she knows I like queen so that the story.
Also my friends dad has met and played on Bryan Mays red special guitar but thats a different story altoghter.

Well it depends on some people's music knowledge and if you don't know you can look it up.

Ok My friend's dad was the inventor of the Ashbury bass guitar. He created the orginal one on a floor board from his old house. Anyway he signed a deal to get the bass into production and so the Ashbury bass was created anyway. One time his dad was up in london doing some promotional work and Bryan May was there and they met and in the end they had a chat and so he asked to play his guitar so he did. He's got his autograph and a photo of him playing it.
Also on a side note he also owns a company called Ashworth Electronics and if you look on the Dire Straits album the blue one with a guitar in the middle his pickup is attached to the guitar.

Anyway thats my stories anyone else?

I do that with 'The Miracle' album- after 'The Invisible Man', I think the tape is gonna switch over and 'Breakthru' is gonna come on (I think Im right there, but not entirely sure!)
