Aquamarine Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hmm, Alison didn't mention in the interview that Jonesy was one of her brother's idols--I'd have liked to have seen Robert's reaction to that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Hartman Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Her brother Viktor was a huge Zep fan and as she's said in a couple of interviews, he'd play stuff for her and just shake his head in disbelief at how good it was. I would assume it was him that had the posters of Zep not her. She has commented on being pretty floored by his solo works and how diverse it is. Point is where is the "Golden God" now? I didn't want to have to look it up. According to her she was a huge fan. The posters I wouldn't swear to I kinda hate that fans view her as a Yoko type. That is far from the truth. She is a bit easier on the eyes to Plant I think? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elZs9SkiOZs I wish JP, JPJ, RP, Jason and AK all the best.

Robert did offer her tickets to last year's concert at the O2 but she politely declined and gave them to her brother instead. Not sure if her brother made it there though.

Mary Hartman Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 She is a Zep fan, but more into Robert's solo work, but yes her brother is the bigger Zep fan if that makes any sense. Robert did offer her tickets to last year's concert at the O2 but she politely declined and gave them to her brother instead. Not sure if her brother made it there though. Makes tons of sense to me. How old is Alison? She declined attending O2 out of respect for Led Zeppelin I think Can you imagine the amount of pressure on her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She stated "family reasons" as the cause of her not going to the concert. She is divorced with a 9 year old son whom I think she homeschools and he travels with her while she is on the road. It sounds like she is a very devoted mom. There is tons of pressure, but I think she has handled all of it gracefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure wouldn't want to drag a nine year old to London There's much to be said for devotion to family. I'm sure Robert has enough respect to see devotion to family is a good thing. Never seen what her boy looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was in England a month or so ago with her boyfriend but not sure if her son went with her. I only saw the back of her son's head in a video of hers "Everytime We Say Goodbye" and he was about three at the time and she was holding him in her arms. I bet he is cute!

Her son was not in London with her for the Mercury awards. As she explained in a BBC interview, this was one of the rare times she traveled without him. He made a perfectly rational decision for a nine year old, he chose to stay with his grandparents and attend the TN State Fair in Nashville. I doubt that you will find photos of Sam, unless fans have snapped them and placed them on the Internet. Her tolerance for people snapping photos of her son is even less than Robert's tolerance for paparazzi snapping photos of his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDave Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I thought they did a good version of the song. I like it a lot. It's very well done, with a bit of a southern feel to it. Bit of twang in the guitar sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a nine year old especially, going to the state fair is much more fun than going to an awards show, LOL!! Although it is normal for people to want to know what some celebrity kids look like, especially when you have never seen them before, I think it is cool that Alison protects his privacy. There are too many celebs that are more than willing to show off their children ALL of the time and it gets old quickly IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninelives Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Interesting body language on the question about 1971, what were you up to then? Perhaps he wasn't thrilled with the question which is understandable considering the fact that what he was doing 27 years ago isn't really that relevant to the reason he was doing the interview - promoting and discussing something he was involved in present day.
