It was years ago and was a comment on a quote Brian once made: John is retired and all he does now is collecting his royalty checks.
John wished Brian a happy birthday and said that he was doing fine, collecting checkes.
It was confirmed by Brian himself that it was Indeed the real John Deacon who posted this. I think it was a brilliant post from John.[/QUOTE]

The guestbook isn't available on Brianmay.com any longer...The reply of John Deacon was one of the best things I've ever seen on his site....[/QUOTE]
Oh, yes it is. Granted, I have no idea where the exact post is. I just wanted to drop off the link for "Brian's Guestbook."

Um.... I already said that I don't know where it is. I have no idea when he posted. And I'm not going to go through 340 pages of guestbook on dial-up to find out - when I have no idea when it happened in the first place, LOL. Sorry!
I was just making the point that you CAN still view Brian's guestbook at BrianMay.com.

Good Grief...Whoever actually has enough free time and goes through the trouble of finding that message that John left Brian...That person needs to get laid.
I found it!!!!!!! It's on page 277, the 2nd from the bottom. It took some searching, but I found John's post!! ;-) Here's the post itself:
"Name: John Deacon
Country: England Date: Wed Jun 30 15:43:36 2004
Comment: I am still around, enjoying my retirement! I have many aspirations, but I rather enjoy my children, and sitting around, collecting cheques for doing nothing."

Yeah, but do you belive in it? I can write my name is Mercury, and I'm from Heaven ?!?
Or Roger, from England? I was confused!

Where did Brian confirmed that? In his soapbox?
At least we get to know that John still has many aspirations! Let´s hope that his aspirations are in music.
Take care

Umm.
Didn't an earlier poster in this topic say that the message included birthday wishes to Brian?

I had seen those comments in the guest book back a few days after they were posted in 2004.
I remember it created a small stir in the fan community, as there was debate as to wether or not it was the real John, as some had a hard time believing Deacy would go so far as to actually say that he likes to collect cheques for "doing nothing".
Interesting now to hear that it has been "confirmed" to actually be him.
Yes, it is a well known fact that John haunts the message forums. Not just this one mind you...several. He was always quite keen with reading the message forums in the early days of the internet and commented on it regularly in printed interviews and the FC Mags. He had a ball....and nobody knew who he was which was part of the appeal i am sure. It was confirmed years ago that he frequented chat rooms and also had regular conversations with people who had no clue whatsoever who he was. One can only assume that this may still be going on, but no one knows for sure except him at this point. I know in the past he was a regular...today, who knows?
He's out there.......the elusive mysterious Sir Deacon.

I wonder if he likes me, or if he think i'm a prick :-)
I can hardly believe that Brian, Roger and John don't go and check the internet every once in a while to see what the fans have to say..
I hope for Greg that Brian doesn't come to this place.
