Well, early one morning in '76 or so my Dad was working at a emergency room in Seattle when who should come in but Led Zeppelin with their manager, who's name is Peter Grant, if memory serves. Anyway, Peter had hurt his hand in some kind of altercation, and it needed to be taken care of. My Dad recognized them, and while he was fixing the injured hand happened to let it drop that one of his daughters (not me, my big sister) had been to their concert that very night. A few days later, we recieved a letter on stolen Doctor's Hospital stationary. It said;
'Dear Dr. Weispfenning,
Many thanks for your efforts last night, they were much appreciated. Tell your daughters to rock on!'
It was signed by Robert Plant and John Bonham. In the ensuing years it came to my keeping, but was lost. Alcohol had made it impossible for me to keep track of my life, and many things that were precious to me were lost forever. A sad story, but a true one.
He was cracking me up! I love his speaking voice,too. It still has those rich reasonant tones that his singing voice has always had as well. He's a classic...
