Zepp 4 Life, WHO ARE YOU to say the story is far fetched??? Were you there? It's a crazy, unbelievable story, I'll agree, but how do you know it didn't happen.
Let me ask. Have you ever done anything crazy in your life? Something nobody would believe, something dangerous? I'm sure you have. We all have. So don't say it's bull just because YOU don't believe it fully. Just say it's hard to believe. That's more fair and polite than telling someone their basically full of shit. That's the kind of stuff that pisses people off on this site (including me) and not to mention rude. Sounds like Rock Historian was sharing a story of his, nothing more. Just remember that everyones done stupid shit in their life, including Jimmy-he's human.
Love The Firm and Jimmy I might add. I witnessed The Firm live three times. All great moments. Jimmy's playing was on fire and otherworldly. A very different style than Zeppelin. He used alot of wammy bar tricks in his playing.
