I have always been drawn to the lyrics “So I’m packing my bags for the Misty Mountains where the spirits go now, over the hills where the spirits fly. “ They not only paint a picture of what was going on in the park that famed day in the song, but touch on the oft-mentioned middle-earth interests the guys seem to have had throughout their illustrious career. I wanted to let my mind run wild and send myself off to the misty mountains where I was greeted by this very flying spirit. I modeled our flying friend after the serpents and Dragons Jimmy has been known to adorn on-stage.”
