Led Zeppelin Soon to Announce '07 Concert on DVD

What is fish rape? I refuse to google it.

Don't quote me on this, but I believe it has to do with inserting a fish into a woman... She was a willing participant, so Kristy's term, among other things, is flawed.

[Kristy]

I don't know much about Eddie Van Halen's addictions other than he was a hardcore alcoholic and tobacco was his refuge in between his drinking bouts. Where Van Halen fucked up royal to me is where Hagar came into the picture turning something that was pure, original and fun into another boring, over-produced corporate rock act chugging out songs for trademark commercialism. Did Eddie dabble into harder stuff? Possibly - but...he was also married at the time, had a child and a ethical responsibility to the rest of the band such as they were at the time.

Zeppelin were all around fuck ups and retards. This whole excessive "rock star" lifestlye of money, drugs and pussy eventually takes it toll. It's no wonder so many of them look prematurely aged, downtrodden and ugly. Good or bad, Page did know how to run Zep like a business first and a plagiarizing rock act second. Many of his contemporaries of his heyday are either broke or dead where the surviving members of Zep have more money than God. There is nothing at all wrong with that other to say how they became so wealthy which was selling their mythological bullshit.

Please shut the fuck up, Mustang boy.

You first, nutjob.

Yeah, but just because the woman was a willing participant (and there's conjecture on if even that much of the story was true), that doesn't somehow absolve the members of Zeppelin or their entourage who did it from being a bunch of cretins for doing so...

Like, if I offer a homeless guy $20 in exchange for letting me shove a champagne bottle up his ass, does that make me less of a scuzz if the hobo says yes and I pay him (and, if it in fact DOES make me less of a scuzz, can you lend me $20?) ?

Eeeh, of course it does. Difference between willing and unwilling is what defines rape.

I don't get this sexual moral panic. Just cause it sounds strange to you guys doesn't mean he molested her. People like different things. Not everybody is a vicitm.

Led Zeppelin (1969) -One of the finest rock albums that ever breathed life.

It was a pus bag filled to the brim of plagiarized shit.

Led Zeppelin II (1969) Absolutely a tour of the extraordinary excellence in rock music.

Says who? A hack at Rolling Stone? Excellence? Where? Led Crap II was a dismal attempt to plagiarize American delta and Chicago blues. Glad those limey fuckers were sued for it.

Led Zeppelin III (1970) A simply fantastic compilation of the greatness of Zep.

Bullshit! It was Zep's first venture into self-serving pretentiousness. Fucking horibly recorded, mixed and played.

Led Zeppelin IV (1971) I cannot stress the must have of this album to anyone listens to music of any kind.

Well I can stress it simply sucked. Hobbit meets lame riff-bashing

Houses of the Holy (1973) The single greatest top ten album ever written in the rock history.

Oh PLU-EZE! More pretentiousness, more generic cliche lyrics, more horrible mixes, bad recording of instrumentation. Houses of The Douchebags is more like it.

Physical Graffiti (1975) My favorite and seems to be perhaps the single greatest album ever written.

Yeah, "written" by monkeys that just flew out of my ass.

Presence (1976) I have no idea what this is or if it even exists never heard it.

You motherfucking lying hippy.

In Through the Out Door (1979) Sentimental favorite given to me by a great friend and definitely a must have for the Zep collection.

Yeah, a must have for the deaf and terminally stupid

Coda (1982) I have no idea what this is if it even exists I have never listend to it or payed attention.

Die.

You ALL can fuck off.

Ditto. Hippy.

If you can get someone to shove a champagne bottle up their ass for $20, I'll give you $40 on principal alone.

Geez people - this is rock and fuckin' roll, not church! When did the pussification happen??? I expect and demand that my rockers are bunch of drunken heathens! Bottle in one hand, and groupies in the other! I don't get why some of you are getting upset about misbehaving rock stars.

How much will it take to get a moron with a blue piece of shit Mustang to drive it off of the nearest cliff?

[clarathecarrot]

It

Yeah, "written" by monkeys that just flew out of my ass.

You motherfucking lying hippy.


Yeah, a must have for the deaf and terminally stupid

Die.

Ditto. Hippy.

Krisy you are a fucking sadist just like me.. sitting there on that sofa looking like you raped yourself with a fish and no-one came to see and the fish bones in your ass are all you have left .

You bitch and moan about something you hate and can't stop the aggression about something you think and know bothers you just like those fish bones in your ass the sadism is on top of your mind.

Give it up or you will end up as mean and shitty as me.

Put the mudshark down and walk away....we all know it isn't big enough anyway.

I was a greaser never a hippy....now shut up and love me.

How can you even compare these two?? One is a hungry person, deprived of basic biological needs doing stuff for pure survival. And the other is chick doing stuff just to be able to hang out with rock stars.
Do you see the difference in what motivates the two?

[Kristy]

Krisy you are a fucking sadist just like me..

Trust me, asshole. You are nowhere near the sadist I am.

Pussification has nothing whatsoever to do with expecting a quality performance as a paying consumer. Look, three of my most revered bands (namely The Faces, The Replacements and The Georgia Satellites) based their entire careers upon being functioning alcoholics. Their collected boozy performances wound up being the most cathartic, life-inspiring and generally uplifting shows ever offered a paying (or non-paying) audience.

The sticking point here is that Jimmy Page would show up so resolutely out of it that it got to the point of sheer embarrassment, rather than having a band united in the same sense of lubrication. Check out the stage posture of Robert Plant in just about any clip from 1975 onward. More often than not, he makes little if any eye contact with Page. This is highly evident during the 1977 Seattle show, as well as the Knebworth performances, wherein Plant seems to only be vaguely interested in what's going on. Hell, he even blows the "Whole Lotta Love" segment of the latter by being totally disengaged, barely disguising his utter contempt at Page and his heroin-filled theatrics.

I am completely down with throwing back a bunch of drinks or smoking something or other within the context of camaraderie towards getting everyone in the band on the same, comfortable wavelength. But the bloated state of rockstar indulgence that dictates being completely self-absorbed to the point of nihilism over being able to perform in the first place is nothing short of anathema to me.

If a so-called artist is allowed to show such contempt for his audience of patrons, he rightfully deserves whatever bad vibes or shame that might happen to come his way. And I happen to speak from personal experience, by the way. I fouled up more than one or two shows, letting down my band and the folks following us by being overindulgent with my use of substances and booze. So this ISN'T a case of the pot calling the kettle black.

It is to my eternal shame and regret that I cheated people in such a selfish manner. It's an albatross I will forever wear, and one that I wish some of these moronic yet alleged musical geniuses would have the grace to own up to.

[clarathecarrot]

Trust me, asshole. You are nowhere near the sadist I am.

It is only fish bones in your asshole, that I trust, the sadism is candy for your ego.


I know !!! you are one of those sadists who thinks it is a fashion statement and that all that gear makes you one.

Like those Vampires you hang out with that base their truth on a GODDAMNED movie from the 1940's.

I see the sadism in the stupidity.

You think it is something you try to be.

Now shut up and learn to love me.
