Gimme Deep Purple any day over Zep!
I had a stand up row with Plant when I was about 17 and have never been able to take him seriously since, he was acting like a pr*ck and I called him a dinosaur!

You have to give us all the details about that!

FWIW Bon Scott beat me at table football once.

I'm more impressed by the Bonn Scott table football story!!

The story with Robert Plant was that a studio managed to double book my band in with Plant(who was auditioning guitarists for his 'Now & Zen' album).
My band had saved for months to book out a rehearsal studio twice a week for which we paid in advance.

I requested the studio get Plant a different room and they said they couldn't because of who he was(?), quite unfortunately RP decided that he should come and tell me he was sorry he had our room but that we should understand it was really important he held these auditions.

This was the point I thanked him for being so concerned and told him he was a dinosaur that had had his day and it was about time he gave some other people a crack at the whip!

My band were then unceremoniously moved to another studio in the same building, having lost nearly an hour of time that we had already paid for.

An hour or so later RP then turned up in our new studio and started saying that it was a much better room and did we now want to swap for our old room?!!!!
I responded simply by glaring at him and playing 'Stairway To Heaven', in best Les Dawson stylee, to which RP stubbed his cigarette out on the wall and huffed of out again!:smile:
