The site is really fantastic because it's entries are conceptualized and curated by Jimmy. It features a daily diary, where each anecdote of Jimmy's is available for 24 hours and there will be NO archiving. Once the entry has completed it's 24 hour viewing period - it's gone! All of the entries span Jimmy's entire career before, during and after Led Zeppelin and onto the present.
One of Jimmy's excerpts -
I PLAYED BERKELEY COMMUNITY THEATRE WITH LED ZEPPELIN
On this day in 1971, I played with Led Zeppelin at the Berkeley Community Theatre and the seated, uni-like audience seemed pretty non-plussed. It wasn't a very good communion that night. Maybe that evening they: a) were contaminated by the negative press we had continually received from the locally-based Rolling Stone; b) were sitting in the remnants of the vibrant San Francisco music scene they had witnessed over the last 5 years; c) weren't receptive to new music we played - material from the unreleased Led Zeppelin IV; d) were heavily stoned, or; e) were all of the above
