Queen's Brian May: 'I'd Love To Play Glastonbury With Robert Plant'

November 3, 2009

Queen's Brian May says he would perform with Robert Plant at Glastonbury “at the drop of a hat”.

Last week, Led Zeppelin legend Plant revealed that he was in talks with Michael Eavis about performing at Worthy Farm but he wasn't sure who it would be with.

Speaking at last night's Classic Rock Awards at the Park Hotel in London, May ruled out a new guise of Queen performing at Glastonbury but said he'd be up for playing with Robert Plant.

He told BBC6music: "I’d play with Robert any time and when we have played together he’s wonderful. Robert is a rock god and an inspiration to us all, always will be.

"There’s some people that remain your heroes which I rather feel good about. And Clapton and Page, Jeff Beck, those guys will always be heroes to me and that will never change, so yeah, of course I’ll go at the drop of a hat."

May attended the Classic Rock Awards to present the Best Reissue Award to Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi.
