Led Zeppelin Saved Plant and Bonham From Starvation

.
(Gibson) In a recent interview, Robert Plant talked about the desperate conditions under which he and then-Band of Joy drummer John Bonham lived. The former Led Zeppelin screamer told the Express, "We all meant it. We were at the point of starvation and would get involved in thievery. We would nick bottles of milk off the doorsteps in Manchester at 5 a.m., while tenants were waking up. We were better at siphoning petrol out of parked cars than we were at pulling crowds." Fortunately for Plant and Bonham, Jimmy Page would soon come calling and all their financial woes would be forever swept away. - more on this story
