If you get a photobucket account you'll be able to post your piccies from that.

Don't know if this has been posted before.
Just thought I'd share anyway.

Could someone tell me how you quote a picture or writing in a message please?
Joolia, I've never seen that pic before! Thanks!
To quote a picture just click on the 'quote' button on the person's post and then click on the reply post, just like you would do ordinarily, and it'll automatically be there waiting for you. Same goes for quoting a message.

I think I'd die if he ever looked at me like this

Just a few of Yardbird Jimmy
Love the way he stands in this one!
-
Wow. I can see that picture a thousand times and he only looks more beautiful
-
Thanks Lady Raven!
I think I've just about died and gone to heaven
Noora, Yardbird Jimmy was AB-SO-LUTE-LY gorgeous. Breathtakingly.

I also have trouble resisting, "Dear Landord" or "Work me, Lord" so many good songs...and I'm not even talking about her 'hits'.
I love 'Dear Landlord'!
Another favourite is 'Move Over'.

you can stream the radio video on demand or get the Led out archive.
Thank you
Have bookmarked that one. -
You see when I went to the U.S it was all about Janis, Hendrix, Morrison, etc on their rock radio stations. And you could just tune in to them in your car! But here? Not at all. You'd never even hear Zeppelin on our national radio stations. You'd probably have to buy a digital radio just to get rock stations that play that kind of music

$50 for a boxset
That would be around 25 squid here! Is it a new boxset? Janis and her kind don't tend to get recognised much over here.
-
She may have bought the beads, I'm a huge Stevie fan and I'm sure I read somewhere that she was given them. Maybe this is another set of beads?
-
Stevie was given some beads worn by Janis because she opened up for Janis with her band Fritz back in the late '60's. You see alot of Janis' influence in Stevie.
Love her as well.

One of my all time favourite Janis performance's was 'Ball and Chain' at Woodstock. Everytime I hear it I always get a chill down my spine.
They sure don't make 'em like Janis anymore.

tcrock, I was listening to Rhiannon, too
Though probably not the same version as you - Landover, 7/8/1978.
-
Aww, Lady Raven, I love the second one! He looks so tired and sweet
Tried to find a site I put up here a few months ago with some nice pics, but alas, I can't find it
But I did find this one with lots of lovely icons of the boys

It's all in his eyes. I mean, I love everything about him, but his eyes are just...striking. He has this look that just makes me melt. And he has the most perfect hair. And his pout is just so alluring. He knows you want to kiss him, lol. Add a guitar and a tight pair of trousers and...wow. He's heartbreakingly handsome.
*Sigh*
How big were/are Led Zeppelin?
in Led Zeppelin Newbies

You know, I find it somewhat hard to swallow the whole 'US made Led Zeppelin' thing, however truthful it may be. I've always liked to think that the UK fanbase had, at the very least, some sort of impact on the band, and to say that America 'made' Zeppelin kind of treads on the UK fans who supported them from the very get go. I've always felt, and this is only me, that the UK and Europe were always put on the backburner compared to the US. We only had a fraction the concerts that the US had, even in the first full year alone, and it seemed that it was going be that way until 1980. Zeppelin didn't even tour the UK or Europe in '77.
However, I've been to the US several times and I constantly hear Zeppelin on their radios. I don't remember ever hearing them on our's. I applaud the US for that because they've always seen the longevity in Zeppelin, whereas, I've always felt, Britain kind of flitters in and out of phases with them. Maybe it's because the UK was never really given the exposure that the US had? I'm 22, I couldn't possibly say.
I'm British, I'll always be biased, so in that respect, I didn't have a problem with them playing at the O2 in December. Maybe this time around they felt a stronger alligience to Britain, they all live here, their roots are here and I think it would've been a real kick in the teeth to the UK and European fans had they performed the concert in America, considering many of the other acts were British as well. The US fanbase may have been pissed that they missed out on a one off concert, but I don't think anyone in the US can really argue that WE missed out on so much more and for so much longer.
Eurgh, I'm done now. I'll go back to watching the Germany/Austria game on telly.
