Overall, Brian May is a pretty cool guy. He’s down to earth, nice, friendly to his fans, and has done everything the right way in terms of carrying on Queen and Freddie Mercury’s legacy. However, he was infuriated over the weekend when a fan called him into question over a social media post.
May posted a photo of himself performing on his Instagram. After a while, he received a notice that the post was being reported and he was forced to take it down, after a fan, who claimed the photo belonged to her, saw that Brian failed to give her proper credit. May took a screenshot of the notice, and fired off a hasty paragraph where he called out the photographer, and defended that he is usually good about giving photo credit, but it slipped his mind on this post. He argued that instead of filing the notice, it could have all been solved with a simple direct message, or comment by the photographer asking for proper credit. May ended the rant by telling the photographer that he will have her thrown out of a Queen show if she attends one. Pretty harsh….
