What's your favorite Robert "Plantation"? :-) I've seen a few...He's so charming in some of them, but kinda seductive in the others lol.
Oh, my gosh - there are so many. I guess my favorites are when he and Bonzo kinda go at it. 5/25/75 - Earl’s Court (basically one long plantation)
"This is a song of love, it's quite innocent, and it's especially for . . . first loves. Can you remember your first love, Bonzo?"
"No."
"It was a pint of mild. This is called Tangerine."
Another:
“I know you're loose, Bonzo. Good lord, he had diarrhea all the way through the last American tour. Loose is not the word. He's got the only drum stool in the world that is a commode.”
6/21/77 (Listen to This, Eddie) - “Ahh. Let me take you there. Trouble with the musical equipment up here. Right now, the man who fought, the man who fought against the elements. The man. The man who, who fought food poisoning. The man who drinks Heineken. The man who doesn't get out of bed. The man who hasn't got a cymbal. The man who's having a chat with his man who knows the man who tunes Jimmy's guitar who comes from Scotland, and doesn't know the man they call Tim, but does know Audrey from Dallas. Thank you.”
“Shh, hang on. The man who now learns how to construct his own drum kit. The man who's not very professional. Shut up, wait a bit, shhh. The man who said he could go back to a building site anytime, and we all agreed. The man who's holding up the show. The Rhinestone Cowgirl. Come on, Bonzo, get on with it. That's what the quaalude stagger is. The man who played the Los Angeles Aztecs and beat them 10-1 by himself. The man who, one wonders, is he worth waiting for, and doesn't really realize there's a curfew here. A childhood friend. A man who many people once said, never heard of him, John Bonham. Over the Top!”
There’s also an exchange from Osaka in 1971 where they can’t find Bonzo and they’re all yelling back and forth. It’s hilarious.
Oh, man! What fun!! Thanks, anon!!
