I was fortunate enough to have front row center seats to a Page/Plant show in Denver in 1995 and also was standing for the Led Zepeplin show in London December 10, 2007. Both shows you could see Jimmy drooling all over himself. I don't think it has anything to do with being intoxicated artificially....I think he gets so into the moment and the playing that he just drools! An oral orgasm if you will. During the O2 show, the bootleg video clearly shows him wiping his chin off with his shirt sleeve in between songs!
What a gift to have seen them live...twice! There is also a medical disorder, hypersalivation that could explain the drooling....involving the autonomic nervous system. But I too believe he was probably 'feeling it' while playing and simpley dosen't care or think of anything else.
