I heard Robert Plant is very, very tough these days. He was here in Toronto this past week and supposedly avoided all people looking for autographs/photos.

Page doesnt seem to like to sign. He doesnt even want to sign at the one book "event" hes scheduled to do in U.S. good luck with him. John Paul Jones I think is ok if you can find him.

my cousin was his drummer for two years in Band of Joy.  I was fortunate enough to have a BOJ CD cover signed by the whole band. I am going to ask him how Plant felt about signing during the tours.  I met plant a few times after the concerts, and while he was very friendly, I never once saw him sign anything.

he said most of the autograph seekers were "ebay hounds" and Plant avoided them.  other than that he was "so so".

I think even the toughest guys dont mind signing a few for friends,family and those in the "in", but they must be sick to death of all the jerks that stalk them. Thats why I stopped in person "graphin" a long time ago.

I know someone who got Jones a few weeks ago, said he wasn't too happy about signing but he did. Zeppelin items.

I think they are all very tough on musical instruments....

I got Jones to sign literally 10 Led Zep items (vinyls, CDs) for me and my friend back a few months ago - he might not be enthusiastic about it but is really open to signing stuff for his fans, including adding dedications.

Got Plant back in 2011 after his solo show - got him to sign his solo LP but nowadays his autographs are generally crap - very rushed and different from each other. Don't recall him signing nicely in recent years.

Haven't tried Page yet but heard he's only signing if you are a good looking lady so no chance for me, haha.

Bonham is difficult, since he is dead. Page and Plant are about as good as Bonham is at signing autographs. 

John Paul Jones does sign autographs when asked in person -- he signed quite a bit when he was touring with Them Crooked Vultures.

If anyone wishes for a chuckle or two, watch Page struggle while playing 'Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground' in 'It Might Get Loud.'
