      I was in 10th grade and saved enough for four tickets. When I heard the news of Bonhams death, I walked the neighborhood with my one speaker boom box and played Zeppelin until my D batteries withered away. Life would have been a little fuller with a Led Zeppelin concert. I did see an excellent Robert Plant show and a strung out Jimmy Page in The Firm. Fourth row. I don't know who was worse, Jimmy Page or Paul Rogers.
