Queen guitarist Brian May's website reports: "Quite a number of people wrote in, asking if Brian has heard the medley released by Dream Theater."
Brian's response: "Bloody Hell! Dream Theater seem to be amazing... thanks - I had not heard this...
Beautifully done... great vocals... great musicianship... great production... and, cop that solo in 'Tenement Funster'!! Ouch !
Thanks! Love it. And it's a great compliment to us... OK, I have to hear more now.
Great to hear someone 'do' our stuff, and fathom all our conjuring tricks, and then add some great new ones of their own."
