10: Led Zep and the mud shark
'A pretty young groupie with red hair was tied to the bed,' claimed Stephen Davis in Hammer of the Gods. 'Led Zeppelin proceeded to stuff pieces of shark into her vagina and rectum.' Not quite. Zep did catch sharks from the window of their hotel, but the pesce in question was actually a red snapper, while the perpetrator was road manager Richard Cole.
Bullshit! It was the Vanilla Fudge, and the place was the Edgewater
Inn in Seattle, and it was immortalized in the song 'Mud Shark' on the Frank Zappa album Live at the Fillmore
East . The film was a 16mm glorified home movie camera and the groupie opened up a coffee house in the University district in Seattle.
