Thru the friday looking glass



Page is probably more in touch with reality than any of us can imagine.

We have no idea as we are not them, as to what their real intentions are 
with anything they choose to do or not do.

RE: Jibes at Jones..."He's not that kind of person" How do we know just 
what kind of person Jones is ? How we ever spent any time with the bloke 
and his family to even know anything more about him other than what we 
have read in interviews or some sort of permuted fanzine factoid ? For 
all we know Jones sits down to break bread and spews forth fire and 
brimstone dare anyone mention RP, JPJ, PG, Zep anything to do with that 
past life. Based on the book cover though, he does seem like a very 
genuine all around nice guy.

Bottom line, we are the ones that are living out of touch with reality 
as we're the ones joined up on this FBO bandwagon living vicariously on 
past memories of someone else's days gone by.

They haven't been Led Zeppelin in over 20 years. What makes you think 
they ever could be "Led Zeppelin" again ? At most they could be 
introduced and referred to as Led Zeppelin ( or former members of ) but 
"Led Zeppelin", the band, the music, the moment can no longer be. I 
respect the fact that they themselves recognize this and never continued 
on as Led Zeppelin or tried to reunite as Led Zeppelin other than the 
mandatory HoF et al corporate functions. IMO shame on "the who?"

I forget, for Live Aid were they actually introduced as "Led Zeppelin" ?

NYC as a contractual obligation...hmm never thought of it that way. Good 
point. Don't P/P still owe an album ?  Could this be the P/P with 
special buddy for the day JPJ "un-plugged" acoustic session in the works?

All in all, I am happy with what we have. A Band that's a legend, has 
dignity, has all surviving member in good health and fortune, has a 
legion of fans that's as strong today as it was in the heyday ( well I 
might be stretching it there ) and if they ever so decide to play 
together again under any circumstance I will appreciate the hell out of 
it. OK, I didn't really adore WiC, but I do appreciate the fact that 
they did do something together.

Somebody put something in my drink,
