  1. On a different topic but still Bonham related, this is in today's Toronto Sun.

    Plant, Bonham kept apart by wife

    Robert Plant was once banned from hanging out with wildman John Bonham because the drummer's wife thought the singer was a bad influence.

    The late Bonham's wife Pat didn't care for Plant and tried to stop her husband from spending time with him.

    The Led Zeppelin rocker recalls, "His wife Pat had banned me from being anywhere near John, because it meant financial doom and distress on all levels.

    "In her Black Country brogue, Pat would say, 'Don't go near Planty, it's all gonna go t**s up'."

  2. Anyone going to FAKE LAKE for their vacation this year?

    Juliet

    It is only a hours drive from my house. I don't think they would let me in for a dip though! Every Time I look at absurd things like this and the federal tax deductions on my pay cheque I just shake my head :slapface:

  3. The only connection I'm aware of is Nash the Slash, who hails from Toronto, attended Led Zeppelin's 1969 gig at the Rockpile and may have been living in London, England at the time and could have been among the many artists Robert Plant was into at the time. However, Glicine has posted comments from the director, Nigel Dick, in which he claims he (Dick) was a stand-in for Robbie Blunt on the video shoot. It's not clear to me he's saying it's actually him and not Nash the Slash under the bandages, or if the bandages were inspired by Nash the Slash.

    So far as I know the women are actresses and not Page 3 girls. I wish it were possible to identify them all and perhaps the director will have such details on file. We have been able to confirm the same actress that appears

    in the promotional video for The Firm's 'All The Kings Horses' (1986) also appears in Robert Plant's promotional

    video for 'Heaven Knows' (1988) - Alice Gee.

    Steve after countless hours of searching I might have found the girl at about the 1:30 mark of the video. Believe me when I say that searching through all of those models on page 3.com was the least i could do for this thread B) . I believe her name is Linda Lusardi. Please feel free to search this as well. It is a tough job but someone has to do it :D

  4. Who Is That Masked Guitarist?

    This is not a mystery to some but perhaps for many a point pondered: who is the bandaged guitarist in Robert Plant's promotional video for 'Burning Down One Side' (02:26-02:40)?

    The bandaged guitarist is in fact Nash the Slash (the guitar solo on the album is performed by Robbie Blunt).

    Wow Nash the slash..that's a name I haven't heard of in a long time. I saw Nash and his band FM open for Rush at Maple Leaf Gardens in 1986(i think). Is there a connection to RP or is it just a video appearance? Are those page 3 girls in the video?
