xp that guitar solo is all brian may all day. ive no doubt freddie would say yay or nay on shit, but i think the macro is a bit disingenuous to suggest freddie sprawled out the whole thing on sheet music and handed the parts to the dudes.

i think freddie mercury worship is the domain of Reddit types, that's the only place i've seen it. no idea why they chose him to idolize.

When they started noting that no synths were used on their records.

maybe it's because he's just about the best rock frontman OF ALL TIME? maybe that.but yeah, i'm sure Freddie would hate that rockist shit. now i'm gonna jam this bad boy.

the thing with queen is that the amazingness of Freddie and The DEACON totally overpowers the boring old dude rockness of May and Taylor.

you know they weren't actually old dudes when they were rockin' out, right

I mean as far as rock guitarists go he's about as bright, energetic, catchy, singable, non-thuddy as they come.

Coexist? I don't get it. Is it some weird anti-racism thing where superheroes are substituted for races? God, reading back that I'm pretty sure I've become a Finn. Still, I don't get it.

coexist bumper stickers w/ religious symbols standing in for the letters are very common. this one is about DC + Marvel coexisting and ending their eternal warfare.

oic -- didn't know about the marvel/dc divide -- so fans of one imprint hates fans of the other or something? lolz <3 subculture h8. Thanks, I hadn't seen the bumpersticker either.

i don't think it's a real thing in 2013 tbh; last time dc/marvel subculture h8 had any presence in my life i was 11 years old in summer camp.

I like how they used a distressed and stained page background and a photo that is clearly way pre-early-60s and then printed the text in the same font as the comment
