  1. Yep... it sure does start with an H. Man Heroine is a motherf**ker!! What's weird is Jimmy's fashion sense was at its coolest with the white dragon suit and his aviator sunglasses, but man he looked like a skeleton. I truly believe that if Zeppelin didn't break up when it did, Page most certainly would've died. On another note, I really wish the Pontiac gig was filmed, hopefully it exists and will come out one day.
  2. I did some photoshop work on a couple of pics and made them into wallpapers if anyone likes them.
  3. I always thought this was page's coolest look. I wish some of this time period was captured on pro film.
  4. Let's be realistic though. I know Plant hates that whole glam image of Zeppelin with the excess and the private planes, but it was Plant who stood there, with his crotch in clear view, making flamboyant gestures and movements with his hands. Plant got the most camera time. It was always one of the drawbacks of the film. Don't get me wrong, the footage on a HD tv looks amazing, and jimmy page was the coolest thing to me. I'm 18 years old and when I first saw a Zeppelin video, it was STH live. I gave it a break and then saw SIBLY, and I just had to surrender and say "jimmy page, you have converted me into a led Zeppelin fanatic!" And that's why it holds a special place with me. But for you younger fans like me, (and older too) I don't know if I'm the only person, but I try to get my friends to dig Zeppelin and I show them clips, and they say "man that guy screams like a girl" or "is that dude gay or somthing." Of course we all know plant isn't, but it's that flamboyance and attitude that really personified the excessive lifestyle that would later escalate out of control. And I never understood why. Put in disc 1 the of zeppin live DVD, then watch TSRTS. I'm not even talking about soundwise, just the attitude of the band and of Plant was drastically different. The gritty soulful plant became the flamboyant rock god, and while they still sounded great, I wished he would have stayed like he was when he first started.

  6. sorry if I'm asking this in the wrong place, but when was the first time jimmy ever wore a costume on stage? The crowd must have been like "what the hell is he wearing"
  7. I'd have to say IMTOD, Black Dog, Dazed and Confused, and the most underrated and never not mentioned, Trampled Underfoot. The thing about Trampled Underfoot that gives me chills is the rawness and raspiness in Plants vocals. That is one song, along with IMTOD, that I wished they could have closely reproduced on stage. Just one time, I wish I could've heard Plant sing Trampled Underfoot onstage with that same vocal sound. It really is the most rawest Plant has sounded.
  8. Very in depth and well thought of. Truly one of the best ZEP songs. Its wierd, when I talk to Zep fans about this song and their favorite part, they never match mine. My favorite part of the song is right before the end, when the whole song goes into chaos and Robert sings that part "Oh I see him good. Come on!!! Take it, Take it, Take it, Take it, Take it, Whooh yes." I just keep rewinding my ipod like five times. That part is addictive and i love it. Anybody else feel the same.
