Queen's time in Munich

Brian May often mentions Munich in interviews as a time when things went wrong for all 4 members of the band without spelling things out and it is picked up several books. Does anyone know of the incidents he is referring to?

Yes. They are well documented.

One of them is Paul Prenter.

What took him there:

The need to get away from those that would write headlines such as "Is This Man A Prat?" in respected music papers.

(Also, possibly, Brian's insistence on covering everything in multi-layered guitar.)

Freddie's love for various shapes, sizes and girths of leather-clad "Wurst" and the good old Stoly and Columbian marching powder.

What it did:

Took him away from the band's spiritual London base.

'Absentia' diminished his ability to function as he had done up to that point as a member of Queen and friend to Brian, Roger and John.

Gave him HIV and caused his death.

Cracking decision, eh...........?

Actually it went wrong for Freddie mainly, Brian is just polite...

I thought he indicated on several occasions that it went wrong for everyone

John reportedly saw god and Bali

So Dandy eh?
