Brian and Freddie

I’m at a restaurant with several people including Scott and Mike. I think it’s Mellow Mushroom (since we were there last night that’s not a surprise). I hear live music and walk around a partition to find the source. Freddie Mercury and Brian May are in the restaurant playing! They’re both playing guitar, no vocals. I’m mesmerized by Brian’s finger work and watch him pretty much exclusively. I think Freddie is playing an acoustic but i’m not sure. Even in the dream i know that Freddie is dead so i’m kind of surprised at my lack of excitement over seeing him alive again. All my attention is focused on Brian May, his red guitar, and the thick coin he's using for his pick. The table in front of them is covered with musical notes and as i watch Brian’s hands i try to read the music (it’s upside down for me) to see if that’s what he’s actually playing. When i look up at his face he’s looking back at me and our eyes lock. His eyes are full of kindness and i'm filled with love and happiness.

Morph to a highway with many lanes but little traffic. I’m driving a little zoomie car like a Metro or a Mini. There are a couple of other little cars on the road with me and we’re all driving pretty fast. I’m in the farthest left lane and there’s one car behind me and one lane over. There’s another car way over in the lane second to the right (there’s seven lanes on our side of the divide). I’m worried that i might get a speeding ticket but when i check the speedometer, i’m only going 55. I turn on the radio and a Queen song is playing with Brian is tearing it up on his guitar. I’m happy we made eye contact at the restaurant and wonder if he’s maybe in one of the other cars on the highway.

So random to see Freddie and Brian in my dream. Love me some Dr. May.
