Brian May, the extraordinary guitarist for Queen, is 76 years old today. He's as busy as he's ever been as he had a huge event this week at Abby Road Studios. He did the traditional tourist walk across Abby Road like the Beatles on that famous album cover and then he held a press conference inside the studio. It's part of the remastered release of his 1983 Starfleet project that included fellow guitar god, Eddie Van Halen. May revealed some interesting inside info on the late Van Halen legend including the fact that he did not like to be called Eddie, but rather Ed or Edward; and his fondest memory of Ed was drinking with him, adding that Edward's drink of choice was Southern Comfort.
