Brian's curse

Bowie tried to warn us that Brian was getting greedy. He even tried to combat him. But, in the end, even the mighty Bowie fell to the curse...

Muhammad Ali

Muhammad Ali---Muhammad Ali vs Superman --DC COMICS --- Flash Gordon miniseries by DC--- FLASH GORDON --- QUEEN original soundtrack by --- Brian May. .

^ that doesn't count.

But it's OK - the Flash thing was all it needed.

Gene Wilder:

I feel it must be a Sidney Poitier/Nelson Mandela connection... must have been fairly recent too..

Sidney met Mandela numerous times. Also acted as Mandela in a feature. Brian and Roger performed at 46664... say no more

Rod Temperton ---» Michael Joseph Jackson --> Brian May. ...



Died at 68, allegedly of "cancer".... which is "coincidentally" Brian's sun sign.

I think there's more to this.




.... such a shame. he wrote one of my favorite Michael Jackson (performed by) songs: The Lady In My Life.


Also Rock with You, Thriller (at the time it was Starlight Sun) .... this is upsetting.

Apparently Brian was not content with just taking all the others this year. This pattern of behavior is unacceptable. He'll soon run out of peers!

Emerson, Lake & Powell > Cozy Powell > Dr May

Alan Thicke

Dodgers Stadium HOLLYWOOD ALL STARS GAME 1996: I booed Alan Thicke in the lineup (*just because, and it was uncalled for and therefore hilarious)

Alan Thicke (3rd base I believe),>> Billy Crystal (first base)>>SNL/Mime in THIS IS SPINAL TAP>> Spinal Tap>> Freddie Mercury Tribute concert for life>> Presenting and performing Dr Brian May


....I fear for the next

Rick Parfitt yesterday and George Michael today? Really, Brian?

"I just saw the sad news about George Michael as I was heading for bed. I don’t have the words. This year has cruelly taken so many fine people way too young. And George ? That gentle boy ?All that beautiful talent ? Can't begin to compute this. RIP George.Sing with Freddie. And the Angels.

My first thought is genuinely about this thread when I hear about celebrity deaths.

All the people who could've gone in 2016. Abs from Five. J from Five. The other three from Five. Dappy. Kerry. Britney. But no, Bowie and George.

Like Prince, I couldn't bear to be the one to contribute to this forum upon hearing about George Michael. It's sad, he'd been topical a few months ago on this forum. I knew he was pretty heavy at this point but didn't think he'd just die.

Hopefully, it was "natural causes".


Aside from "JAWS was never my scene, and I don't like STAR WARS" I can't imagine the Carrie Fisher connection, UNLESS it was transmitted to Ellen 'Degenerate' ;)via Adam Lambert....

much as Brian loves Star Wars.... do we know of him meeting the cast?

Carrie snogged George Lucas in Hook; Lucas threatened to sue the band for dressing up a bodyguard as Vader for the encore. Done.
