Walking Papers

[Star Trek]

I've been watching some episodes of Star Trek Voyager, I have noticed that other planets they visit don't seem to differ much from ours, there are Senates, courts, just as there are here on Earth, also, capitalism seems to be the dominant system on other galaxies, there's talk of currencies and monetary exchanges, I think they're sending an implicit message that capitalism exists everywhere regardless of time and space.

Also, the civilisations they visit are either very advanced or very primitive, in one episode there's a planet where the bartering system is still in place, but this is also an historical/economical distortion as it would imply that feudalism, or any other economic system, would eventually settle in those primitive planets.

I don't complain, the episodes are entertaining, but I wish they were more imaginative and life in other planets was actually different than it is in our planet.

How come a people like the Banean sit down to supper, just like most families in, say, the United States, and how come they're familiar with the concept of hospitality?

[Facebook and issues that come with it]

So, Facebook wants to know:

- where do I work

- where did I go to high school

- which city do I live in

- where did I grow up

- what is my relationship status

pretty intrusive!!

Peter Buck / Some Kind of Velvet Sunday Morning

[Current music recommendations]

Highly recommend this year's re-issue of 1995's Mad Season.

Surviving members of the band teamed up with notable Seattle musicians Mark Lanegan and Peter Buck to finish new songs on which the band was working during the mid nineties. Recommended if you are a fan of grunge music -which I'm not, I like the blues influence that permeates through the album.

Glad you found this interesting, zepofile. I'm looking forward to obtaining a physical copy of this, although they often post some of their content online.

[Hot Pics of Robert]

[Robert Plant - Pre-Zep History]

Quick mention of Robert Plant's pre-Zeppelin days in this interview with Jon Anderson.

" Jon Anderson is a natural raconteur. An original peace-loving hippie with an acoustic guitar, Anderson – Yes’ former frontman and songwriter – peppered his intimate Bluesfest sideshow at the Corner Hotel with tales of his career. Some of which included meeting a young Robert Plant – who was in a band called Listen at the time – supporting a group called The Undertakers whose frontman would jump out from a coffin and start singing; speaking with a Liverpudlian accent because he wanted to be a Beatle until his mum scowled at him, visiting Jamaica in the 1960s and not remembering any of it, and performing with Yes in Argentina to a crowd surrounded by heavily armed police force. "

[Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience (Tour)]

Sam Webmaster and Steve A Jones, thank you for clarifying this to me.

[Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience (Tour)]

They are mistaken; Foreigner is touring with Chris Frazier on drums. Chris joined the group in September 2012.

Thanks for the info. Would you happen to know why there is no mention of the Heart dates on jblze.com? Unless of course they consider this a purely Heart business which it is, but I was expecting to see some sort of note on the website?

[Song Name Game]

Seven Chinese Brothers - R.E.M.

[Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience (Tour)]

This is probably a mistake (since I understand that Jason Bonham is no longer drumming with Foreigner) the media In Perú are saying that Jason Bonham is playing with Foreigner this next Tuesday, April 2nd, in Lima. Mr. Bonham's name is associated with Foreigner in most press reports I've seen from Perú, just wanted to mention this. Here's an example from Teleticket:

En esta oportunidad, Foreigner presenta nueva alineación. La banda está conformada por su fundador, el guitarrista Mick Jones , Kelly Hansen (vocalista), Jason Bonham (hijo de John Bonham, célebre baterista de Led Zeppelín), Jeff Jacobs (teclados), Jeff Pilson (bajo) y Thom Gimbel (guitarra y saxo).
