Re: FW: Grohl loves Zepp



Grohl:

"To me, Zeppelin were spiritually inspirational. I was
going to Catholic  school and questioning God, but I
believed in Led Zeppelin. I wasn't really buying into
this Christianity thing, but I had faith in Led
Zeppelin as a spiritual entity."

I'm not questioning DG's right to say something like
this, but is it not surprising that some Christian
fundamentalists had problems with Zeppelin?  They
might not have expressed themselves very rationally -
eg. hidden messages recorded backwards on LPs - but I
think they understood that for *some* people, that era
of music was about leaving a social community.

I'd be more confortable with people like Grohl, if
they weren't just building some new, modern reationary
religion.
