Re: No Bonzo = Zeppelin..Zep names for animals...etc..

[PajLvr@xxxxxxx]

It's not "Led Zeppelin", I don't care what anyone says. It just isn't the 
same. Whoever said that "what you will see is merely a "shadow" of Led Zep" 
is CORRECT! I agree! I was/or am not old enough to have seen Led Zep. I have 
seen and always say, I have not seen Led Zep, but only Plant Solo, P/P, Page, 
JPJ, etc....they may "play" alot of the same songs, but they are NOT the 
same! How can you "replace" Bonzo? I mean, he is the Brains of the percussion 
section...all those little things...those ARE WHAT MAKE HIM THE DRUMMER FOR 
LED ZEPPELIN! Period! And I am UNANIMOUS in that thought! Would you say it 
was "Led Zeppelin" if oh...I don't know...say ....Jimmy was replaced? 
Certainly NOT! I never thought of the group as "Led Zeppelin" while Robert 
was singing some Zep song during the solo years...and sometimes...solo you 
don't even want to think that was HIM! ( I am not dissing him either, cause I 
can't do any better) I am not a "trained" drummer(but I play, and hubby 
PLAYS), but I would suspect that any DRUMMER you asked, that KNEW of 
Bohnam...would say they can't live up to his reputation...and quite 
frankly...ALOT of what Bonzo does do...unless you are a trained drummer, the 
normal ol joe will never pick up on, or unless you are fanatics, like 
US...alot of people NEVER pick up all the "little" things he has going on. 
Page didn't tell him to do it, Plant didnt', Jones didn't...that is 
BONZO...Plain, Outright, and PURE! THE MAN ROCKS..and knew how to play those 
drums..his timing was impeccable. Damn is that how ya spell that? Sorry, my 
brain is warped today...not like any other day, but hey...someone poisened my 
doggy(twice) and had to have her put down..not thinking to clearly, as if I 
ever think TOO clearly. Long weekend, just want it to end, and the 27th be 
here ALREADY! I need some Zep Therapy!
Just to get this off my chest..and if you don't wanna read on, then STOP NOW!
My doggy was only 6, and I found her at the local lake, bout half mile from 
my house. She was named "Lake" and was a great dog! We have no kids, just 
critters, as I am an animal lover/rescuer etc.... We have/had dogs and cats. 
I now have NO dogs, have to lock everything, noone to greet me, noone to ride 
with me, go fishing etc...you know how dogs are...great buddies! Especially 
for me, I am home alot by myself...she was my guard dog as well, and a VERY 
good one at that. We live in a nice affluent hood, lots of retired folks, and 
families here.(everyone has dogs or cats or both) This sucks ass! 3 weeks ago 
she was poisened, but we were able to get her over it. Then it happened again 
this last friday night. Had her put down, late sat. night. Apparently they 
didn't give her enough the first round, so tried again. Don't know why, she 
wasn't a "barker" unless you actually came in the yard etc...anyways.. We 
still have 15 cats!!! Several up for adoption..any takers??? lol See I live 
by "Claremore Lake" famous dumping grounds for my area. I am the "little ol 
lady who feeds them all!" Cept dammit I am not OLD YET! Only 34! We do love 
the critters tho. Understand not everyone does.
Never had an animal named that was Zeppelin related tho! How wild is that? 
Just never really fit any of them. Spring time is here, and that means more 
babies, I don't and can't take anymore, but if I do...I really want some kewl 
Zep names for kittens...they will be popping up anytime soon. Suggestions 
WELCOME, as I never think of kewl names...other than Jazzpurr(got a tuxedo 
coat), and Biscuit...fits them well..haha. Kashmir just hasn't worked yet..so 
don't go there..haha.
Sorry for the extra waste of BW, but it's hard to look out in your backyard 
and see 3 dog house's, and not even 1 dog! I am sure some of you will 
understand, as I have spoken with several members previoulsy bout critters...
Thanks for your time...sorry I was off topic for abit. Won't again anytime 
soon. Thanks for listening..and yes..sometimes...this list is ALL I 
have..even when I shouldn't.
Apologies for Rambling...again
