This song was famously inspired by Live Aid, see some clips of this further down this page.
If you enjoy this video, check out this one where I discuss Brian May's playing style and with. Dave Colquhoun, who was actually in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie playing guitar!
Dave has played on stage with Brian May and Rick Wakeman and was recently involved in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie! Dave's other credits include the We Will Rock You musical, teaching guitar to Bohemian Rhapsody actors Rami Malek (Freddie Mercury) and Gwilym Lee (Brian May) as well as Freddie's Mum! (story at the end of the video!)
