I found this piece of paper on my way to a blimp, and was confused - please help!
Here is what it said:
This is for someone jones-ing for a plant-based page-mystery featuring late-bonham activities.
Here are the ones I think are rocking, in no order, perhaps with little quarters:
StH
WLL
IS
GtC
WtLB
GTBT
BD
tBoE
Don't be a rainy fool and help me make some sense of it.
Each set of initials leads to:
The title of a song by the rock band, Led Zeppelin
As follows:
StH = Stairway to Heaven
WLL = Whole Lotta Love
IS = Immigrant Song
GtC = Going to California
WtLB = When the Levee Breaks
GTBT = Good Times Bad Times
BD = Black Dog
tBoE = the Battle of Evermore
The clues to this outcome are that:
1. The names of the members of the band are hidden in the text: This is for someone jones-ing for a plant-based page-mystery featuring late-bonham activities.
2. The mention of 'rocking'.
3. 'Little quarters' refers to No Quarter, another Led Zeppelin song.
4. The 'rainy fool' may be a reference to The Rain Song, also by Led Zeppelin.
Plus, of course:
The 'blimp' i.e. zeppelin!
