Re: : Ramble On on J Leno






I think she will understand sooner than later
and start to  over borrow  from your collection!

No, all three of my daughters KNOW  Led Zeppelin, but they roll their eyes

their parents.  Something their mother likes  could never be cool, right?



I get things like, “I’ll only ride  with you if you promise to not to play 
Led Zeppelin”



When  Mothership came out, I was in line to pay for it behind a cool-enough 
looking,  and my daughter later added, “really cute” older teen purchasing 
Pink Floyd’s  The Wall.  He saw what I was buying and said, “I wish I 
could have seen  them in concert – Led Zeppelin is my favorite band”  I told 
him that he did  indeed miss quite a show”  After the checkout we stood and 
talked for 5  more minutes about the music.  Two equals in the music – no 
distance of  years or gender or experience between us.  My daughter couldn’t 
understand  it – she was horrified.



Maybe one day, she will understand.
