02-25-1993 – Austin American-Statesman – Austin, TX

Brian was supporting Guns N’ Roses at the Frank Erwin Center.
Opening the show was former Queen guitarist Brian May. While the late Freddie Mercury provided the overbite that roared within that band, May was the aural architect, as the pomp-rock grandeur of his performance made plain. Though May made no attempt to match the flamboyance of his former bandmate, the hour-long set was decidedly Queenly, from soundalikes such as the title song to May’s new Back in the Light album to a blast from the past with Tie Your Mother Down.
