    Watched Stephen Fry in America this week because he was visiting California and my parents were interested (being that they are flying out at Christmas)

    And he spends all of ten minutes on the entire state in which all he does is participate in a drug raid, speak to students in Humboldt and listen to a offensive song sung by a rabid environmentalist (okay she didn't sound rabid at all really)

    So now my mother is all worried (also it doesn't help she fell asleep for the more positive half of the programme)

    That is kinda what this thread is like

    Jimmy Page really is that good and I get upset when people deny that.

    Although Brian May probably exceeded his creativity

    To be fair, that sounds like he only went to Northern California, and San Jose is in. . . oh.

    sorry poor syntax--May exceeded Page's creativity.

    May was a minimalist but every note in a May solo felt placed. The Flaubert of Arena Rock.

    May studied physics at Imperial College London, graduating with a B.Sc. (Hons) degree and ARCS with Upper Second-Class Honours. He then proceeded to study for a Ph.D degree, also at the Imperial College London departments of Physics and Mathematics, and was part way through this Ph.D programme, studying reflected light from interplanetary dust and the velocity of dust in the plane of the Solar System, when Queen became successful. He abandoned his physics doctorate but did co-author two scientific research papers: MgI Emission in the Night-Sky Spectrum (1972)[8] and An Investigation of the Motion of Zodiacal Dust Particles (Part I) (1973),[9] which were based on May's observations at the Teide Observatory in Tenerife. He is the co-author of "Bang! – The Complete History of the Universe" with Patrick Moore and Chris Lintott, which was published in October, 2006.[10] More than 30 years after he started his research, in October 2007 he completed his Ph.D. thesis, entitled A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud, passed his viva voce, and performed the required corrections.[11][12][13][14] He officially graduated at the postgraduate awards ceremony held in the Royal Albert Hall on the afternoon of Wednesday 14 May 2008.

    On 17 November 2007, Brian May was appointed Chancellor of Liverpool John Moores University,[15] taking over from Cherie Blair, and installed in 2008.[16]

    Asteroid 52665 Brianmay was named in his honour on 18 June 2008 on the suggestion of Patrick Moore (likely influenced by the asteroid's provisional designation of 1998 BM30).[17]

    I always thought she was terrifying in Hook. But yeah, she's great.
