I didn't pay much attention to the rock players other than the musical devices they came up with. Many, like myself, had more extensive backgrounds in music (jazz and classical) but were just having some fun with the music and hoping to have a hit to make a bunch of money. Page was shy and we chatted mostly with the lead singer.
