...if only I wasn't still really hung over, I'd tell the story, but I feel ill right now. Must drink more water.
None the less, it involves a guy I met from New York, commercial airline pilot (747), and how we ended up becoming best friends because of our love for Led Zeppelin.
All bow down to Jimmy Page and Robert Plant.

My New Yorker friend, a little over 40, asked me if I remember where I was and what I was doing when the news of Bonham's death came out. I was three at the time and definitely had no idea of who the Zepps were to begin with, so yeah, Bonham's death would not have been news to me at the time. My New Yorker friend said he could remember the exact time and place he was when he heard the news. It's then you realize the age gap.
