kenog Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 From Peter Makowski-Wordsmith Facebook page regarding Jimmy at the London Int's Ska Festival on Saturday, 23/03/2103 "Great evening tonight which started off at the South Kensington and a fabulous walk through the magical tunnel that takes you from the station into the equally fabulous Victoria and Albert Museum.Once there I negotiated my way through the MASSIVE queue of people who were there to catch the sold out David Bowie (Official)owie exhibition to I made my way the Event 1 of 12: London Intl Ska Festival @... The V&A - The Legacy of the Blues Dance which was easy to find thanks to the Heavy,Heavy Sounds of the Huge Sound System and fabulous music being played by my favourite reggae DJ Steve Rice.Also had a suprise reunion with my dear friend of many years and late nights Andre Bell and his beautiful other 'half.What could follow that,you may well ask. Well how about a mind blowing set from one of my nu fave bands Du Bellows at the Archangel accompanied Tony 'Sound'n'Pressure' Cummins and Mr Jimmy Pagewho was well impressed by the magickal chemistry of this exciting eclectic/ephemeral quintet who for me conjure up many diverse influence all of them very pleasant indeed.

kenog Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 Peter has said that he is writing a book on his many years as a rock journo. Questionable as to how much coverage he will devote to his great mate due to respecting privacy. By the way, Scarlet Page has finally given in, and started using twitter @scarletp. She appears to be working on an exhibition for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie0024 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Here's a couple of photos of Jimmy at the Du Bellows gig. They're a really nice group people, shared some my updates over at @LedZepNews. Ross Halfin is promoting Peter's Facebook page over at his Twitter account and hinting at future posts.

Cookie0024 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Apparently Jimmy had a long chat with them afterwards. Here's one of their songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zzp-P2EPus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenog Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 Hi Cookie, Thanks for bringing this to the board! Maybe the Mensch family is here for Easter. Even better still, if Peter Mensch was here to work on important announcements regarding his client. I wondered if they used Jimmy's private RAH box? Jimmy was at the Royal Albert Hall tonight with Peter and Louise Mensch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightandshade Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) ^ Agreed. Thanks Cookie and PlanetPage for your diligent research work!!! +1 Thank you to everyone for all of the updates! The last fan picture, especially, is fantastic - genuine smiles on both faces. I tweeted some of the photos and facts from this thread at my special Led Zeppelin account and Louise Mensch and Warner Music shared them. Was cool to be a semi-official news source for a night. Cookie, I didn't know you ran that account - it's one of the few reasons I'm on Twitter! How cool to have your research recognized.

kenog Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 SAJ, I found the whole concept of him being interviewed by his wife to be 'toe-curlingly' embarrassing. I don't know how JPP could spend five minutes in their company, let alone an evening at the RAH. There have been so many times when I have thought that Jimmy is a very tolerant, patient person. Peter comes across as a braggart in that article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenog Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 Cookie, Like Lightandshade, I did not realise that you had an LZ account on Twitter. Well done to you that these people have picked up on your efforts! Is your account the @LedZepNews one?

Cookie0024 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Hi both, yep I run @LedZepNews. I started it on the evening of the Jimmy Page: In Conversation program. I work in social media and using the internet etc, and realised that I could get news about Led Zeppelin out a LOT faster than other sources. Because I'm not linking to a blog, website, or magazine, I try and get all the info out to fans as I get it. Been really surprised how much people enjoy it, so thanks guys for your kind words Cookie, Like Lightandshade, I did not realise that you had an LZ account on Twitter.

kenog Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Cookie, Thanks so much for this up to date info - you really are an invaluable contributor here. I think it was very decent of Louise Mensch to 'keep you in the loop'. Jimmy Page flew to New York yesterday to celebrate Peter Mensch's sixtieth birthday. Brian Jones of AC/DC flew in too. Thanks to Louise Mensch who let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
