Due to circumstances, Roger and I had to split our attentions these last few days … there’s a lot going on.
So Roger attended the Q Awards last week, (and did a nice presentation to the brilliant David Mallet) – and I got to do the Classic Rock awards.
I was honoured to accept the award of “Living Legends”. And I think my acceptance speech is up online somewhere…
Queen Living Legends Award Speeches Satriani and Brian May 11/11/2015

Now, as usual, there were countless photographs of the ceremony, and me, and the wonderful Joe Satriani, and the award itself. But where are they ?
We’ll try to chase some up.
But my lovely daughter Emily took this photo of me during my acceptance address to the assembled throng. I was actually very touched by Joe’s words and the fact that everybody stood up when I took to the stage. Got very choked.
That’s Joe Satriani to the right, and on the left is presenter Steve – a well-known wrestler and musician – who did a very good job, and managed to stay sober enough the whole night to make sense … a feat not always achieved by CR presenters !! ha ha !
I got to see some old friends … Lemmy and Phil from Motorhead, the guys from Europe, Alice Cooper, and many others.
Thanks to everyone who had a hand in us being presented with this great award ! We will try to live up to it !
Cheers
