An excellent and wild show in front of a rather dull and unresponsive crowd. Robert’s voice is simply perfect and the band is so on! The improvisations in Dazed And Confused, As Long As I Have You, and a very long How Many More Times are truly outstanding and the whole show is a great 1969 Led Zeppelin energetic, loud, powerful, raw, and wonderful document.
John Bonham, born John Henry Bonham, (May 31, 1948 – September 25, 1980), British drummer for Led Zeppelin, a popular rock group formed in 1968 by guitarist Jimmy Page.
Bonham was born at Redditch, Worcestershire. He first learned how to play drums at the age of five, making a drum kit out of containers and coffee tins, and copying the moves of his idols Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich. He received his first proper drum kit at the age of fifteen, a Premier.
After leaving Wilton House public school, he worked for his father Jack Bonham in the construction industry in between drumming for bands. In 1964, Bonham joined his first band, Terry Webb and the Spiders, meeting his future wife Pat Phillips at a dance in Kidderminster. He also drummed for local Birmingham bands such as The Blue Star Trio and The Senators who released a moderately successful single “She’s a Mod”. Bonham enjoyed the experience and decided to take up drumming full-time. Two years later, he joined A Way of Life however the band became inactive and in desperation for a regular income, joined blues group Crawling King Snakes whose lead singer was a young Robert Plant. During this period, Bonham developed a reputation of being the loudest drummer in England, often breaking drumheads and being asked by clubs to stop playing. By 1967, A Way of Life asked Bonham to return to their group, during this period Plant kept in constant contact with Bonham and when he decided to form Band of Joy, Bonham was first choice for the drum stool. The band recorded a number of demos but no album. In 1968 American singer Tim Rose toured Britain and invited Band of Joy to open his concerts. When Tim Rose returned for another tour months later, Bonham was formally invited by the singer to drum for his band which gave him a regular income. Both singers Joe Cocker and Chris Farlowe had also sought out Bonham for their touring bands.
When Jimmy Page wanted to start a band in the wake of The Yardbirds break-up, His first choice for singer was Terry Reid, however Reid had already signed with Mickie Most for a solo career. Reid suggested Robert Plant, who in turn suggested Bonham, who had already drummed with Plant and knew Page from session work. Page?s choice for drummer included Procol Harum?s B.J. Wilson, session drummers Clem Cattini and Aynsley Dunbar. Ginger Baker was also rumoured to be on Page’s list. After seeing Bonham drum for Tim Rose in Hampstead, north London, in July 1968, Page and Peter Grant were convinced to sign up Bonham.

…is it so that we don’t mistake them for the laundry basket? Not to mention Tea Coffee and Sugar jars, Biscuit Tins etc. My neighbour has a chopping board with CHOPPING BOARD written on it. Whats it all about?
They are the American models, they have to spell everything out over there so as not to get sued
I really want to make a legit looking sign for a christmas present. I would want one of those tin signs that usually have some witty remark about coffee, but I have my own design I want to put on. Is there anyway I can do that? Or is there another kind of sign that looks similar? I want it to look good. Not something on a piece of paper and framed.
Hello Amanda47.
You can contact any local welding shop.
They can cut a piece of light gage sheet metal any size you want.
Personally, I would recommend 14 gage steel or aluminum.
It is about 0.77 thousandths of an inch thick, about the thickness of the
cardboard back on a writing tablet.
An air conditioning service can provide galvanized / tin material but I think it takes
a special / acid wash/ primer conditioning to make paint stick to it.
Both places can round the corners and drill mounting or hanging holes for you.

I am a collector of canned coffee beverages. The cans are empty (to clarify, they are not the cans of coffee grounds such as Maxwell house, but tin and aluminum cans like sodas).
I am afraid that after some time the artwork on the cans will deteriorate, what is a good way to prevent this? (or will it deteriorate in my lifetime?)
Hi!! if you are unsure of the lasting qualities of the artwork paint the exterior with a light coating of clear varnish.
Then ensure storage is dry, and not likely to be knocked about.
Sounds like a good thing to collect, different.
I just got a mini cupcake tin and i was wondering if anyone had a GOOD recipe for mini coffee cupcakes. Like coffee cake but cupcakes. thanks in advance!

Is it better to set up a 529 for college savings or just to "bury it in the back yard?"
Not literally, but just to have the money in hand at full value in safe keeping, or to pay an investor and risk losing my daughter’s college fund in the shaky stock market. What is your opinion? I would really love some good answers! Any financial girls and guys out there who can help me make an informed responsible decision with my daughter’s interest in mind!
Thanks.

I’d like to point out that firstly, im not a parent. I work w individuals on a daily basis who have 529 plans set up for their children, but i don’t actually do any of this myself, so take what i say w a grain of salt as i haven’t experienced it myself.
The 529 plan is a good way to save money for your child’s schooling. Everything you put into the account is saved solely for the costs of your child attending a institute of higher education. Unlike a normal savings account you cannot just draw out money when you like and spend it on anything. You can retrieve money from a 529 for other purposes other than education but there is a hefty fine associated w doing this. This will prevent u from drawing money from the account for other things, esp when your child is still young and you figure u’ll have plenty of time to save that money again. I believe there may be a slightly higher interest rate that builds on a 529 plan than in a normal savings account but i would look into this a little more. You also dont get taxed on the money until you withdraw it.
Some people will tell u its not worth saving for college, but this is just ignorance. It’s true that any money put into the account will eventually need to be claimed on the FAFSA. This will make your family look more affluent, and therefore nix your chances of receiving financial need grants from the government. These grants currently, however, only amount to about $7000 per year so it isn’t worth forgoing saving money for several years just to get 7 grand which wont even cover most schools. To avoid this problem though, consider putting the 529 plan under the child’s grandparents name (esp if your parents are still young). Grandparent income does not need to be claimed on the FAFSA so you could have lots of money saved but it won’t hurt your chances of getting federal grants. Your parent can have the money sent to the university on the child’s behalf.
One major drawback (which hopefully won’t happen) is if your daughter decides not to attend college. If she decides to go straight into the workforce or to get married and be a mother out of high school then you will have a lot of money set aside for something that isn’t going to happen. You can take the money out of the account but w the huge penalty on using it on non-educational expenses it will seem that it wasn’t even worth saving the money. Hopefully this wont happen, and if it does, hopefully she will have a younger brother or sister that you can transfer it to.
That is just a little info and tips that i have come across when working w families w 529 plans. Talk more to people at your bank to find out the specifics
I gave a friend of mine a European square tin of international coffees, one day I asked
her how each of the four coffees tasted? She responded that her roommate just poured all the coffees together in one container that already had Maxwell house coffee in it and she shook it up. I was pissed off beyond words because that coffee was very expensive. Should I be angry or let it go because it’s hers and she had a right to do what she wanted with it?
Let it go. And don’t buy her another gift.
The thing that gets me is that it was the ROOMMATE who did it. WTF is the roommate doing in her gift?
I know, I know. Instant coffee is for homeless people. Still, a sample envelope came in a gift box, and it was so good I went and got a few tins.
General Foods French Vanilla Cafe. I’m not shilling for them.
Has anyone else tried this?
It’s the smoothest, most non-disagreeable coffee — sorry, "coffee" — I’ve ever had.
I’ve never been much of a coffee drinker (for whatever odd reason, a lot of coffee-maker coffee to my tongue tastes like bitter dirt water).
In addition to your (possibly positive) comments on this brand and flavor, do you know how I can reproduce its flavor and consistency in a cheaper, non-instant-mix way? Is there any comparable flavor, method, or maker?
Thank you.
You can get french vanilla coffeemate creamer next to the milk in the store which will make your coffee delicious too, although I just drink my coffee without flavors, I have tried this once when I had a visitor and I used it all after they left it was flat out good. Try it with the bitter dirty water you make…..it will be very good.
On Ebay etc. there are lots of listings of ‘coffee cans’ in America and they are what we in the UK would just call a mug or cup. What actually IS a coffee can? (Not, as I said, a coffee can as in something you would buy/store coffee in.)
A can is a can you purchase a can of coffee or a bag or a tin. Then you brew it in a coffee pot and pour it into a mug to drink from. You may be looking at coffee cans of days long ago, which may have some value as antiques. If this doesn’t help you i may be living a sheltered life here in the USA ( I’ve been drinking coffee here now for over twenty five years) I hope this helps
For a project, I want to use a tin can, like a coffee can and I need to have some of the surface show rust. The rest will be painted. Is there a product available that will cause the surface to rust? (Please don’t tell me to leave it outside for a couple of weeks)
