And what do you lads do?

Guess Queen Elizabeth isn't much into rock'n'roll, since she didn't recognize Queen's Brian May, Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck.
From the Led Zeppelin Website:
Jimmy Page / Eric Clapton / Jeff Beck / Brian May meet the Queen at Buckingham Palace today, asking them "And what do you do?". May, from the rock band Queen , reminded the queen that he had played the National Anthem on the palace roof to start a concert marking her 2002 Golden Jubilee. "Oh! That was you was it?" Elizabeth II exclaimed.
Moving on to Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, the queen inquired: "Are you a guitarist too?"
Guitar god Eric Clapton took no chances and, firmly shaking her hand, introduced himself by name. "Have you been playing a long time?" the queen asked. "It must be 45 years now," replied Clapton, 59.
The all-star gathering for major names in the music business, was a royal tribute to Britain's music industry.
