Brian May Suffers A Minor Stroke

by Paul Cashmere on September 5, 2024

in News

Brian May of Queen has suffered a minor stroke but the good news is he is out of danger.

Sir Brian updated fans on YouTube. He said, “The good news is that I can play guitar after the events of the last week. That little health/hiccup I mentioned about a week ago, what they called it was a minor stroke. All of a sudden out of the blue I didn’t have any control over this arm. It was a little scary I have to say”.

Brian added, “I had fantastic care and attention from Frimley Hospital where I went with blue lights flashing. I didn’t want to say anything at the time because I didn’t want surrounding it. I really don’t want sympathy. The good news is I’m okay”.

Queen + Adam Lambert played February 2024 dates in Japan. There are currently no shows scheduled. The most recent Queen + Adam Lambert show was in Tokyo on February 14, 2024.
