I'm surprised she didn't finish with "Your Times is Gonna Come."

What is with these “crazed fans”?

If someone’s talent entertains me, I am grateful.

I used to work with a kid who had this really total obsession with Jessica Alba. I always presumed her agent already had the restraining order.

Years ago, I met a friend at a hotel restaurant and he was a pro athlete. At one point a drunk lady asked for his autograph despite not knowing his name. She put on a show when my friend refused her advances including tossing items from a table. Sad but comical at the same time.

Sad...I actually hung out with Bonzo’s son for nearly an hour and never once asked for his autograph.

Probably should have...but it didn’t even occur to me.

He's on tour with a band opening for Heart this summer I believe.

I take it he didn’t ask her to squeeze his lemon.

Yes. He also has been the drummer for Foreigner for quite some time.

And of course, he plays with Zep and with Plant when they get together.

Led Zepplin “opens” for Heart? How far they’ve fallen.

Aren’t all Zeppelin fans crazed?

It was a comment about the son of Led Zeppelin's drummer John Bonham. Jason Bonham, the son, has a band opening for Heart.

It’s not Led Zeppelin, it’s Robert Plant solo.

Yeah, his lawyers of Howard, Howard and Fine are not doing much with that restraining order.

Peter Grant would have handled her, no doubt.

Robert Plant resides in Austin, TX.
I have not met him, but have several friends
who have talked to him at local stores.
They said he was very normal and friendly.

Here they are this past Halloween.
