imPLANTed Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I recently met someone who was a hater. I was recently at my sister's house sitting around a campfire with about 10 other people I really didn't know that well. I'm talking to this one lady to my left and I heard from across the fire the words Led Zeppelin. I don't think my head has ever snapped that fast. Almost gave myself a concussion. Anyway, I asked what they were talking about and the answer came that a guy named Rick said, "I just don't get them". Barb: Get what? Rick: Led Zeppelin. Barb: What don't you get? At this point I'm still being a nice friendly person using an upbeat tone of voice. Rick: Led Zeppelin. Barb: (getting a little irritated) What don't you get about Led Zeppelin? Maybe I can explain something to you. At this point my sister comes over and asks what we're talking about. So I told her that Rick was in the middle of explaining to me what he doesn't get about Led Zeppelin. My sister just said, "Oh boy, Rick, you better just let it go!" and she walks away leaving him unprotected from me. So back and forth we go with the smarta$$ not answering my question and he finally busts out with he doesn't care for their music. Barb: Well, alright then. Maybe you don't like them, but that doesn't mean you don't "get them." I'm going to say this one thing and then I'm going to let this subject go. By the end of the evening I challenge you to name one band whose every song has its own distinct sound and when you hear it start you know exactly what song it is. Rick: I agree. But I still don't like them. Rick's wife: I LOVE LED ZEPPELIN. She pulls out her iPod and it's just loaded with LZ tunes. Too funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Starbreaker Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 My math teacher in 7th and 8th grade. It wasn't so much that he went around bashing Led Zeppelin as it was that Led Zeppelin wasn't his cup of tea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I dunno. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Zeppelin Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I have friends who think all music like this sucks because there are too many instruments and not enough lyrics. I wish people understood that there were always 4 people singing on stage at zeppelin concerts. One used his mouth, one used his bass, one used his drums and one sued his guitar.

Kashmir330 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 he is? yayyyy Yeah he is. I noticed it last night when his avatar was gone and on Group it said banned Ted Nugent fans. Who needs em. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

zepps_apprentice Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Ted Nugent. Besides him... Nobody comes to mind. the rest of his "band" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Page-ist Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 A lot of Nascar's revinue comes from Nugent fans I hear. Oh, and if there's such thing as the American Hunters Association, that's probably filled with Nugent fans as well. But besides those, nothing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
