Did Geraldine Edwards the rock muse ever meet Jimmy Page who was very interested in her grandfather Aleister Crowley?

I was friendly with Geraldine Edwards back in the seventies and attended a few concerts with her. Eventually most groupies mature and move on to a different lifestyle as I did, but we sure still remember some of our high-spirited antics from our teens and distant past. In Almost Famous Penny Lane aka Geraldine Edwards refers to groupies as "band-aids." Geraldine and her group, of which I was one, more often referred to ourselves as "the ladies." We were fully aware that the world saw us as groupies, but the way Geraldine and her group of ladies saw it, we were availing ourselves of a once-in-a-lifetime golden opportunity few young women would have turned down. Sure, we were there to meet musicians we were interested in, but we were also there for the aggregete experience which encompassed a rather large range. Geraldine and her group sometimes referred to themselves, myself included, as groupies but we always qualified how we interpreted the meaning. More often we did refer to ourselves as the ladies. We felt we had a standard to uphold and did our best, considering the incredible circumstances.

Now that I've attached my C.V., I will answer the question asked. Yes, Geraldine Edwards did meet Jimmy Page, in 1974, when she was seventeen years old. I and two other friends went back stage with Geraldine to a Led Zepplin concert taking place at the then San Diego Sports Arena. We managed to meet the entire band, two of our group having met them on a previous occasion. I do recall that Jimmy Page was very friendly to Geraldine as was Robert Plant. I must say here that although Geraldine's great-grandfather Aleister Crowley was a popular cult figure and icon to many musicians, not only Jimmy Page, Geraldine did not use her relationship with him as a calling card. The woman always operated on her own merits as she is still doing today. Only her close friends knew of the relationship.

Although people have heard horror stories about Led Zepplin and their behavior on the road, the stories are highly overated. From what I recall, they behaved a lot better than many musicians did that visited San Diego. I spent most of my time that evening with John Bonham and Geraldine split her time between Jimmy Page and Robert Plant. Robert Plant was very interested in Geraldine and she enjoyed talking to him, but when he told her their plane was given permission to depart Brown Field, and told her to get ready to go with him, she demurred. He was a tiny bit upset, and did ask her why she was going backstage in the first place if she did not want to date musicians. She politely told him that she went backstage for the excitement, the music, and the experience. She honestly told him too that if she felt there was a connection between herself and a musician she met that she would date them. She was not trying to come off as an innocent, because she was not. None of us were. But to clairify, a lot of people think that any groupie was available to any musician. Not true. We picked who we were interested in like any other woman would. Robert Plant respected Geraldine for what she had said, and apologized for the outburst, even lending her his limosuine to take her home in style. It was actually cute. Robert Plant kissed Geraldine on the forhead, which was visually amusing. Robert Plant is 6'4 and Geraldine is 5'4. Then he told her to "stay out of trouble." Quite a few people got a chuckle out of that. That evening, I went to Los Angeles with John Bonham. I never regretted those years.

Geraldine did meet Jimmy Page though, and I recall her telling me that she found him to be both intelligent, well-mannered, and open-minded, and that she enjoyed their meeting.

What is a zeppelin?

Zeppelins are a type of rigid airship pioneered by German Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin in the early 20th century, based in part on an earlier design by Croatian aviation pioneer David Schwarz. Due to the outstanding success of the Zeppelin design, the term zeppelin in casual use came to refer to all rigid dirigibles. Zeppelin were used for passenger transport as well as for military purposes, operated by the Deutsche Luftschiffahrts-AG (DELAG). DELAG, the first commercial airline, served scheduled flights before World War I. After the outbreak of the war, the German military made extensive use of Zeppelins as bombers and scouts. The German defeat halted the airship business temporarily, but under the guidance of Hugo Eckener, the successor of the deceased count, civilian Zeppelins experienced a renaissance in the 1920s. They reached their zenith in the 1930s, when the airships LZ 127 Graf Zeppelin and LZ 129 Hindenburg operated regular transatlantic flights between Germany and both North and South America. The Hindenburg disaster in 1937 triggered the fall of the "giants of the air", though other factors, including political issues, contributed to the demise of the Zeppelin. A zeppelin is one of thoes giant blimps. It is not realted to the band "Led Zeppelin". It was originally a proper name. The giant blimps were named after the inventor, Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, with a capital Z. Any rigid-frame airship was then known as a zeppelin, with a lower case z.
