“And, you know, talk about rock and roll, man. But it’s sad, isn’t it?”
Johnny then asked: “Brian May was there?”

Liam previously spoke to Magnet magazine about Queen, pondering: “Do I like Queen? Uh, not really, no. I mean, I get Freddie Mercury has a great voice and all that.
“Obviously, they’ve got some great songs but I do find them a bit Queen-y, listen, they’re a top band and obviously, they’ve got great songs, but I don’t know, man.
“Listen, they’re a top band and obviously they’ve got great songs, but I dunno, man.
“Brian May’s guitar sound sounds like he’s got it clogged in his a*s. I respect him and all that, but I don’t know, man.”
