Last year I wrote a post about Queen guitarist/astrophysicist, Brian May, “Brian May-Interstellar Feller”.
Today we have this news.
Queen’s Brian May today succeeded former Prime Minister Tony Blair’s wife, Cherie, as the chancellor of Liverpool John Moores University.
May’s appointment, which was watched by over 500 people, comes less than a year after he successfully completed an astrophysics PhD which he abandoned in the 1970s to pursue his music career.
Dr May was awarded his PhD last August for a 48,000 word thesis, entitled, A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud.
May, not satisfied with being a hugely successful rock star and astrophysicist has added University Chancellor to his gaudy resume.
Once again, congratulations Brian May. I believe that this chancellor thing pulls you slightly ahead of Department of Defense consultant and Chairman of Congressional Advisory Board on missile defense, Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, on the list of top guitar players whose mission in life is to make the rest of us look like imbeciles.
Thanks again-I’ll just be sitting here, with my guitar, thinking about changing strings.
