Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Dave Wanna Be	#1 by Dave Brousseau at Mar 24, 1973 at 1:18 AM EST
	Err - my copy of Darlene contains the phrase "Got a pink carnation and a pickup track" I seem to remember that this phrase was also in Don Mclean's American Pie(?) Any idea what this phrase means (other than a guy with a van and a flower :)

No Picture Albert Wanna Be	#2 by Albert Piccolomini at Mar 11, 1987 at 8:04 PM EST
	Crap, it got cut-off. Oh well, just go to that site if you want to know. It said the pink carnation was a reference to the 50s song "White Sport Coat", and that the whole line was referring to the style and music of the 50s.

No Picture Anarchos Lead Player	#3 by Anarchos Olsson at Sep 28, 2006 at 3:29 PM EST
	i love this fuckin song prob the best on coda of original stuff i love how robert pronounces darlene sounds like "dow-a-lean" but its of course darlene and a great great song its a shame not many have heard it ONLY 8 COMMENTS ARE YOU KIDDING ME!! ...LONG LIVE THE MIGHTY ZEPPELIN!!!!!!!!!!!

No Picture cody Average	#4 by cody stipp at Jun 8, 2007 at 10:05 AM EST
	Ok, Excalibur2 I hate you. Darlene is one of my very favorite song by Zeppelin. You clearly do not know what you are talking about.
