    Bizarre rules

    In the pub with a mate on Friday night. A couple of dozen people at the bar and tables, 3 couples eating at tables. Barman says "any suggestions for music to put on, Gents?", seeing the barmaid's Led Zep T shirt, my mate suggests "Black Dog", and the barmaid reels around and says "No! We're not allowed to play Led Zeppelin while people are eating"!!

    The vegetarian option.

      She was adamant, not just that track, no Led Zeppelin.

        You should have told her that 'Ridicule is nothing to be scared of'

            A lot of pubs ban it and meal times.

            Marillion is considered to help with digestion though.

              If some of Led Zepp's lyrics are like Ozzy's I am not surprised. I am sure people don't want to hear about killing the unborn in the womb while the family tuck in to their Sunday roast!

                Nope, they are mostly about Hobbits and shagging (although not usually in the same song)

                  No, none of that old rubbish.

                  Here are the lyrics of the suggested track "Black Dog".

                  Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move,
                  Gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove.
                  Ah, ah, child, way you shake that thing,
                  Gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting.
                  Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way,
                  Watch your honey drip, can't keep away.

                  Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh, oh, oh
                  Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh, oh, oh

                  I gotta walk, can't stand still,
                  Got a flamin' heart, can't get my fill,
                  Eyes that shine burning red,
                  Dreams of you all through my head.
                  Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah...

                  Hey baby, oh baby, pretty baby,
                  Tell me would you do me now.
                  Hey baby, oh baby, pretty baby,
                  Move me while you groove me now

                  Take too long b'fore I found out
                  What people mean by down and out.
                  Spent my money, took my car,
                  Started tellin' her friend she' goin' be a star.
                  I don't know, but I've been told
                  A Big legged woman ain't got no soul


                  Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh, oh, ah
                  Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh, oh, ah

                  All I ask for, All I pray,
                  Steady lonely woman gonna come my way.
                  Need a woman gonna hold my hand
                  tell me no lies, make me a happy man.

                  Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah...

                  Ahhhhhh!

                  Ooooh-ahhhh

                    And that, ladies and gentlemen, concludes the arguement that Zep always were, always have been and always will be SHITE
