On This Day in 2014 the announcement that Jimmy Page will receive the Silver Clef Award in July

During this fifth night at MSG a number of incidents.  Among other things, Jimmy Page dropped his guitar, knocking it out of tune before White Summer/Black Mountain Side; Bonham was introduced as "a rhinestone cowgirl" before Battle of Evermore; and Bonham comes in too early in Stairway to Heaven, forcing Robert Plant to switch lyrics.  Plant comments on it as he sings: "There's still time to change the road you're on... I hope so Bonzo".

Some say this fifth of six nights was the best show at Madison Square Garden in 1977.

On This Day 09 June

Confusion as to when/where on this date.  But a good time was had by all. Well, maybe Jeff wasn't having as good a time as the others were.

Various photos and reports of Les Paul's birthday celebration give this 1986 date as well as 1987.  There were parties at the Hard Rock Cafe as well as Fat Tuesday's in New York City, and Jimmy Page is reported as having attended.  But it seems unlikely that both he and Les Paul would have been wearing the same outfits at each event on two different days, much less two different years. Although Jimmy Page's website says 1986, I'm going with 1987.
