Reminds me of Nero playing his fiddle while Rome burned!!!

Well, since the Fiddle was not invented until somewhere around the 15th century, Nero could not have been fiddling while Rome was burning. In fact While Rome was burning Nero was on vacation far far away .... I suppose Caligula could have been a fiddler, but not in the sense you were referring. He also had some burning going on and from what I hear it eventually killed him.

So Brian is no relation to any roman emperor as far as I know ... maybe he had just had his Botox injections?
