I Want To Break Free

So, lately ive been obsessed with both Michael Jackson and Queen, especially Queen. Freddie Mercury is amazing. Brian May, awesome. I mean, Queen basically accomplished making Uber-Gay Progressive Metal. I recently downloaded a pirated copy of Guitar Pro 5 (and over 30,000 tabs for it) and i am well on my way to mastering the Bohemian Rhapsody solos!

Check out this classical guitar rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody. When i hear it i imagine a medieval court, with a group performing this on mandolins and a jester acting out the lyrics thru humourous interpretive dance.



And here is the video to I Want To Break Free, which is for some reason my favorite Queen song lately:


Freddie is so pretty, no seriously, w/o the mustache and drag hes pretty.


In other masturbatory guitar solo news, the youtube guy who plays the Beat It solo i posted the other day was kind enough to send me the tab for it:



Oh Eddie Van Halen, you and your musical wankery.

Michael Jackson, Still Crazy

According to reports, Michael Jackson plans on have a 50-foot robotic replica of himself erected in the desert surrounding Las Vegas.

Consultant Mike Luckman of Luckman Van Pier, tells the New York Daily News, "It would be in the desert sands. Laser beams would shoot out of it so it would be the first thing people flying would see. Neon is wonderful, but it's old school."

Luckman's partner, designer Andre Van Pier, adds, "Michael's looked at the sketches and likes them."


Hey, remember when Michael Jackson was amazing. I know i've said it before, but i still contend that the world would be a better place, lacking war and poverty, if MJ were still a black man.

Let me take you on a journey:


Jackson 5 - ABC


Jackson 5 - Want You Back


Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal


Captain Eo - Part 1 (Part 2)
