Like the title says.


-there are 26.5 million hits for Led Zeppelin on google
-7.36 million for Jimmy Page
-3.1 million for Plant
-9.8 million for Jonesy! =o
-782,000 for Bonzo

I think the only reason jonesy has 9.8 mil is because there was like an explorer by the same name. o_O; correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah some Revolutionary war hero dude... he was on a poster in my history classroom and me and my friend started cracking up when we saw it.

Robert Plant has a collie named Strider (after Aragorn from Lord of the Rings)
And Bron-Y-Aur Stomp is about him xD

Jimmy was recruited by a filmmaker named Kenneth Anger to write music for Anger's film, Lucifer Rising. However, Anger removed Page's music from his film (which had taken several years to piece together up to this point) because Jimmy had only recorded 28 minutes of music.

Some of the SRTS film had to be re-shot because the incompetent director who had first been assigned to the project filmed parts on 16mm film as opposed to 35mm. 16mm film becomes distorted when blown up to regular size, therefore, a year after the concert had been filmed, the band had to dress up in the same clothes they wore on the concert date and re-do bits of songs. Jonesy had to wear a wig, because he had radically changed his hairstyle. This resulted in some giggles.

if you look close enough they are actually wearing different clothes, and jimmy's fingers don't' line up on the guitar to what the music is playing in said parts, and they re-recorded parts because the director told the cameramen to turn the cameras off during sections to save film

Robert plant actually borrowed these lines from Jimi Hendrix's "If 6 Was 9":
"If the sun refused to shine"
"If the mountains fell in the sea"
