Robert Plant and BP Fallon, 1973
BP Fallon recalls staying in a hotel in Chicago when a group of female fans tracked down Plant to his hotel suite and burst through the door, only to be confronted by the sight of Fallon and Plant quietly playing Monopoly in face cream. “We’re trying not to laugh so the gunk won’t crack,” says Fallon. “We continue our solemn game of Monopoly… our visitors shuffle about uncomfortably, wondering what the hell had happened to sex and drugs and rock’n’roll. ‘Let’s go,’ one of them says. ‘It wasn’t like this with David Bowie.’”
