Brian May and The Darkness sitting in a tree…
Brian May, of Queen fame, performed with The Darkness, of ‘being queens’ fame.
The video of the performance is there, but I wouldn’t end my year with that image in my head, if you know what I mean.
Brian May has tapes of Freddie and Michael Jackson
Brian May apparently has tapes of Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson together. This can be really great or really gross, depending if you’re Rob Halford or not.
“There is a couple of very interesting tapes with Freddie singing with Michael Jackson that we’re looking at. Those kind of things we can work on together and it’s nice that in a sense Freddie is still involved in it.“

Let’s hope ‘singing’ really means singing and isn’t a homoerotic euphemism. Not that there’s anything wrong with that…
Lady Gaga and Brian May share the same stage
I.N.S.E.R.T. something that rhymes with… rage!
It hurts me to post this, but it somehow made the rock news — the queen of the land of manufactured shock antics, Lady Gaga, performed at last night’s MTV VMA’s, and Brian May of Queen joined her on stage for a guitar solo.
More importantly, though, she performed the song in her male alter ego, “Jo Colderone.” Now, I always thought she’d look normal dressed as a guy because she looks horrible in her woman outfit. Yet, this looked just as fucking weird. Plus, she tried way too hard to be funny and crack jokes about herself. Just lame.
Anyway, if you watched the VMA’s, please shoot yourself, but before that let me know if Britney Spears still scores anything at those things. #teambritney
Friday Top 10: Ugliest guitars
Guitars are beautiful and they make anyone look good. But what happens when some musicians get extremely ugly ones? Is it because they lack good taste or do they just want to stand out?
Either way, some guitars used by known musicians are atrocious looking, and that’s what this Top 10 is all about. Make the jump and let’s laugh at some hideous instruments.
Note: This top is based solely on aesthetics (it means ‘looks’ for all you SOAD fans). It has nothing to do with price, quality or the guitarists themselves. It is based on what I consider ‘ugly looking’ instruments.
Everybody on? Good. Great. Grand. Wonderful.
*UPDATE*: Dear trolls and nitpickers, I have written my follow-up to this article: Top 10 Best looking guitars. Enjoy!
