Jack Black Begged Led Zeppelin

Jack Black desperately wanted to use a Led Zeppelin song in the film "School Of Rock," but the band rarely allowed its music in movies. Director Richard Linklater suggested that Black record a personal plea to the band members in front of a crowd of 1,000 extras. Black made the request with the crowd behind him, and the appeal worked. Led Zeppelin approved the song, giving the film one of its biggest rock moments.
