well ac/dc was her thing but the zep are a bit, uh, serious for either of us, but we're here to learn. Merry Christmas everybody. Here's how I feel most of the time:
led zep - have you tried watching the song remains the same?
basically a bunch of overgrown overmoneyed idiots pretending to be various male asshole archetypes, it is unbelivable.
if i was on the recieving end of the disco sucks campaign i would have just forced those guys to attempt to watch it all the way through. they'd soon give up resistance and start booging to sylvester.
incidentally a mate of mine used to have a canal boat moored in the same road as jimmy page's house (and natalie ubriglia).
Page had a boat as well and his wife asked him if he could come and have a look at it. asked him if he could fix some things in the house too. Soon he ended up actually living in the house as a sort of janitor, handyman/driver.
Apparently Page was a seriously moody man who spent alot of time with his guitars, whilst him and his family kinda lived like overgrown babies.
One day the same friend was sitting in a local caf listening to the radio and he won a radio competion to have the sugar babes play at his house, obviously his house at the time was jimmy page's, however my mate got the sack just before it ws going to happen. Imagine that though, i reckon there woulda been a right storm, ultimate pop meets ultimate rock.
i can't believe if we're extending the rock thread to metallists overall that no one has mentioned slayer's reign in blood lp, horrible genius and released on def jam, sampled by everyone from P.E to lil john.
