What does Led Zeppelin have to do with Masonry? It doesn’t. However, some of their songs contain some exceptional symbolism and allegory. MW Bro. John May will present “Led Zeppelin: The Alchemical Quartet.”

This presentation is geared toward those brethren who struggle with symbolism and allegory. Come enjoy this musical journey and some new insights into symbolism and allegory through a contemporary and, perhaps, a more familiar lens.

This series is open to all Master Masons.

Last Friday was the 46th anniversary of the death of Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, which caused the dissolution of the group. I remember learning of this over breakfast the following day, listening to Paul Harvey’s early morning broadcast. All these years later, I marvel at how singer Robert Plant is, far as I’m concerned, the only star from the sixties who remains creative and relevant in this second quarter of the 21st century.
