The Daily News
Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and Robert Plant waiting backstage last
night at London's 02. This was the Zep's first REAL reunion tour in 19 years.1 Man, oh man.
2 Tough act to follow.
3 Let me tellya.
4 Been a long time been a long time been a long time lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely time.
5 All that glitters is gold. Good to see the band back doin' it.
6 Rock 'n' roll.
7 Moving on: I was set and ready to play left-field for the Giants this Spring, you know, just pull a few longballs into the right-field drink, when I watched Dilfer go down in the Niner game.
7 I found out that he's out for a while, and that the back-up quarterback to Shaun Hill is more than likely Borat. I thought about putting in my application, but when I found THAT out I just kicked a rock down the street, darkly.
8 Well the 49ers are already 12-point underdogs to this week's opponents, the Bangles.
9 I'm not kiddin'.
10 The guy on the teevee kept saying, "And the Niners will have their hands full next week when they play the Bangles."
11 Thank the LAWD they don't play Greenday this year.
12 Those mugs just kicked the Raiders' asses the other day.
13 And I'm pretty sure they were high.
14 Strange days, indeed.
15 Moving on Agin: Patti LaBelle told reporters the other day that the reason she turned down an offer to do Paula Abdul's job was because she didn't want to be mean.
16
17 Moving on, Part the Toid: You know what's fun? When Oprah suddenly appears on the scene telling everybody, "His FIRST name is not Obama, it's Barack!" and people suddenly sit up and take notice.
18 Every now and again some cool guy comes down the pike and people take to him on the basis of his NOT having deep associations with all the Skull-and-Boners and secret societies crawling in and out of Washington.
19 Obama looks like a cover boy for Pepsodent.
20 Here's a question for you: We had FDR, JFK, LBJ and then all that stopped. Wouldn't it be hot if Obama brought the initial thing back?
21 Oh wait...
22 His initials would be B.O.
23 So much for THAT idea.
24 Ah, what to do, what to do...
25 Well! Turns out the picture at the top of the page is NOT Led Zeppelin, as originally reported. And NO, it isn't ZZ TOP either. It's just a bunch of old geezers with beards.
26 HERE'S Led Zeppelin, who wowed 'em in London last night at the 02, their first REAL reunion in 19 years:
27 Congrats to the Zep. Some things are just fun to see, and I guess it was a reunion for a whole buncha friends, and it featured a whole lotta love.
28 Last night, London rocked.
29 Y'all have a rockin' day, willya?
30 Peace.
