A Conversation for Stairway to Heaven
Robert Plant
Dan Started conversation Apr 28, 2000
Talking about the 'No Stairway' sign in guitar shops (does that really still happen - thought it might be 'No Teen Spirit' or something by now), well the one person who seems to be the most sick of the song is Robert Plant himself. Apparently he refuses point-blank to play it or discuss it or anything. (Radiohead had a similar thing about Creep at one point but they've got over that and played it quite a lot on their 97-98 tours.) Anyway, Page and Plant can still put on a stunning show with plenty of Zep content - but you won't hear Stairway, except for a tiny little teaser from Page just to taunt the crowd.
