The more I hear about this book, the more I think it's just fiction.

I wonder if a fair fight would be Charles "Artist In Residence" Billingsly VS Led Zepplin. I too think the Dense Baloons were over rated but I am going with Plant Paige and the boys

I remember Jerry telling stories about the LZ concert. He was there with the "I Love America" rally, but the bit about the Zepplin volume interfering with his rally and him going there to confront them is a fabrication. He and some of the others from "LBC" snuck in the back and watched for a while. He mainly was really saddened by what he saw going on in the crowd.

What I was going to add is if it truly was as big as a deal as the author made it out to be, "We' would have heard about it.

So... does anyone have a verdict on the book? Fair or fiction?

"We" are people who have been in the area and have heard Doc talk about those types of situations he would be involved in.

The article isn't true. He never conducted the choir.
