I found this piece about magician, Mike Stoner, who works in the Berkshire area, and has performed for Jimmy (presumably at one of his (JP's) parties).

Mike Stoner is a full-time professional magician and mind-reader who entertains with a mixture of traditional magic, modern fast-moving psychological magic, palm-reading and metal bending. Mix one third Paul Zenon, one third Uri Geller and one third Derren Brown and you'll be about right. He does magic at parties, weddings, restaurants and corporate events across Southern England several times every week and has performed for celebrities such as legendary Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page and Home Secretary Theresa May.

Hi - Thanks for the mention. Yes I performed some magic for Jimmy and his family at a restaurant in Reading called "Old Orleans" (recently rebranded as "Miller & Carter").

Jimmy was a true gent and thoroughly enjoyed the magic, although he did spend quite a lot of the time on his mobile. He was happy to have his picture taken and it's been a great boost to business, several bookings have come from people saying "If you're good enough for Jimmy Page then you're good enough for me!"

Mike, I understand at the time you were the resident magician at Old Orleans, performing twice a week from 2010-2011. Could you possibly recall any specifics concerning the date (day/month/year and/or day of the week) and occasion you performed for Jimmy and his family? It

would be great to see that picture as well! Thank you.

There's a picture of me with Jimmy on the "celebrity magic" page of my website (at the top naturally!), that's the only one that we took, I didn't want to hassle him for more.

I'm pretty sure it was a Tuesday evening, but I can't remember the exact date, it must have been about 18 months ago. What I do remember is that the staff in the restaurant (mainly in their late teens and early twenties) had no idea who he was or who Led Zeppelin were - outrageous!
