Queen Asks (Clapton, Page, Beck & May) At Party: "So, What Do You Do?"

LONDON -- Imagine Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton and Brian May at a party and the hostess coming up to them and asking, "And what do you do?"

That's exactly what happened when the four guitarists were at a party at Buckingham Palace Tuesday -- and Queen Elizabeth II actually said that to them.

Clapton said it was great to meet her and it doesn't matter at all that she didn't know who they were or what they do. He said he wouldn't expect her to know.

The Queen will get to know her music pretty quickly.

She's announced a new prize, The Queen's Medal For Music, which will reward musicians who have had an impact on Britain.

The award will be given out on Nov. 22, the memorial day of St. Cecilia, patron saint of music.

3. I think the reason that she didn't recognize them...

...is that they have all been eclipsed by Oasis.
