LED ZEP as the woopie cushion I have never heard that either/not saying it is false but will have to look into it.



I do know KEITH MOON gave them the name when he told PAGE what he thought about the new band he was putting together that they would sink like a LED ZEPPELIN

Did you know? When asked what it felt like to be the best guitar player in the world Hendix' reply was: "i don't know why don't you go ask Rory Gallagher?"
(Rory also turned down the Stones.)
