Never saw them but asked Plant to get his arm off my jacket which was on the bar. I wanted to leave the bar (the place) and he was trying to pick up the bartender's girlfriend. About 1990 I think. I recall she did not know what to do. The bartender was, 'well he is famous'. In the end he didn't. Just seemed like a lecherous old guy. Sure, he was famous back in the day but that does not mean you have it and can just walk in the bar and pick any girl up. In the end she didn't, no idea what he did afterward. Had more respect for him after he did some folky stuff (or was it more country?).

Is that you in the picture with your grandson?
Yea, that's me, but he's my actual son, not my grandson ( :) ) named Emmet Michael, on his 1st trip to Ireland
Here's another image from that vacation when we were in Dublin, Ireland after doing a Viking tour (Did you know the Vikings founded Dublin/yea, they actually fucking did/amazing,right?)DSCF1050.JPG

Cool. Not only did you meet Robert Plant, you met the only women in the world who wouldn’t sleep with him.

She had to debate over it and ask her boyfriend. I think if Plant actually tried a little she might have. But when you are used to women falling over you.

Which is odd if you think of it. He plays the stadium, and then ends up in our bar. OK it was the best venue in town to see good acts (there was a reason I spent many nights there) and seeing he was into music, if he did ask anyone where to go after his gig he probably would have been pointed there. But it really wasn't a pickup type of place.

You know, maybe I broke the magic happening when I interrupted to get my jacket. I never thought of it that way.

I almost did.

My brother and friends went to get us tickets in 1975 at Boston "Gahden" , when the bottle throwing ticket riot happened as they were opening ticket sales, then the concert got cancelled. Damn, I'm getting old.
Boston Garden?
Where the fuck are you from/live?
That's my neck of the Woods
I thought you lived in Bum-Fuck Idaho with your viewpoints ( :) )
Stay safe :)

I was born on an island in the Pacific and lived in a hut, but that was a long time ago. Dad was a WWII vet, shit happens.

A great grandfather had a farm in the northeast, so I know about potatoes, but not Idaho potatoes. Heh heh heh.

Who knows...maybe this is my matrilineal lineage?

Legend of the Giant Ruwathoel

How Ngulu was separated from Yap

Ruwathoel lived on the Southern tip of Yap proper in the village of Guror, Municipality of Gilman in the ancient days. He was different from all the Yapese because of his size. He was half-Human and half-giant. Everyone considered him handsome and strong and he was also an excellent fisherman. He possessed skills and capabilities that surpassed all other Yapese men.

Out of jealousy, the people plotted to get rid of Ruwathoel. They cast a spell on him and get him to sleep with his head resting on the porch of the man’s house. They tied his hands to the coconut tree trunks and braided his hair to the house posts. Then they set fire to the house. In his struggle to free himself from the deadly flames, Ruwathoel kicked the neighboring small island of Ngulu to where it still remains today… about 60 Miles from the main island of Yap.

You look so Happy. Your son looks like a throw back to the 60’s or something. He looks like a hippy and a rock star. The girls must go crazy over him!
No, he ain't no Hippy
He's pure
No drugs/alcohol/indiscreet sexual activities
A path far, far away from the path that his father chose to follow
Good for him :)
He'll do well, hopefully, God bless :)
