  1. Thanks--yes I know, but what I mean is that there's a difference in being a founding member and it being HIS band. Just wondered. On the subject of apostrophes, and apart from the fact that many people use apostophes incorrectly , Mr Plant would seem to be one of them, as witness "Achilles Last Stand" and "All the Kings Horses" (there are probably other examples). Not an apostrophe to be seen! Edit: OK, you answered my first question while I was typing. So he was the guy in charge, as it were.
  2. Good old Len, I miss him. What was Robert's position in that band, anyway--I mean, WAS it "his" band? Or was he simply the singer, or what?
  3. Probably rode his motorbike into the mods' lounge, or something. Hi Pilot!
  4. To be fair, he doesn't say that, the author Pete Sutcliffe does. So it could be his mistake.
  5. I'll look forward to my copy of MOJO making its very slow way across the Atlantic!
  6. Then Irma Thomas just met up with Jimmy and JPJ at the MOJO Awards! (Sorry, just more degrees of separation. ) Indeed, great job.
  7. I was jealous before you even got to the Plant part! He's been a loyal supporter of that band, bless 'im.
  8. The DVD was packaged with the O2 concert programs, too. It's fascinating.
  9. I just brought up the point because you said "scattered (interred)" as if they were synonymous. I have to admit it sounds more like a memorial to me as well. But whatever the deal is--it's incredibly touching.
  10. Scattered and interred mean two very different things, however.
  11. Thanks for posting this--I was there ^^ and it was a great night! Long John Baldry was also on the bill, but always seems to get overlooked--possibly he didn't perform on the rest of the tour or something.
  12. Actually, not that it matters that much as the point is the same, but the interview was with Robert, from Blender, 2002. Q. How did your last telephone call with Jimmy Page go? A. What an excellent question. It was December 21, 2001. I said, "Hey, Jim, how's it going?" He said, "Oh, Christ, I can't talk now; everybody's in the car waiting to go." That was it. Word for word. I've seen him since, but that was the last telephone call I had with him. [sorry to be such an anorak! I imagine things have changed since 2001, anyway.]
  13. *waves back* I feel so exclusive!! :))

  14. It was THE hip place to get married in the late 60s, lots of the "beautiful people" got married there. Except me.
  15. My admiration for the Jones family just went through the roof . . .
  16. I saw Indiana Jones while in the UK (first movie I'd actually seen in a cinema for about a year), and although I didn't think it was as good as the previous ones in the series, the fact that Harrison Ford was 65 and still kicking major ass gave me the warm fuzzies.
  17. I thought the same about the hair, but I'm pretty sure she was at Knebworth.
  18. 1. I wouldn't like anything bad to happen to Cecil, but it's definitely Jimmy Miller. Jagger said so in a number of interviews. (Of course, I don't have them right in front of me, so you'd have to wait for specific source-info.) 2. Could the woman seen from the back at Knebworth be Julie Felix?
  19. Them and a zillion other bands. However, I can't get excited about Rod Stewart's opinions from 1978.
  20. OK, I was confused because MSG was talking about the airport injury, then the quotes were about the train injury. All clear now.
  21. No, it's the injuries I found confusing, not the quotes! I thought on one occasion he injured his hand on an airport fence in the US, and on another occasion he injured it in the train door. But I'm at work so don't have any dates to hand. If there was only one injury, then presumably the airport incident must not have happened.
  22. I'm confused now. I thought the injury at the airport and the injury at Victoria station were two different injuries?
  23. There you go--Most High, worth the price of purchase in itself.
