so normal that a plastic surgeon discovered a hole the size of a coin burned through Stevie Nicks' nose from her cocaine use.
there is also this rather unfortunate picture of Danyella Westbrook, who lost her entire septum to cocaine.

For a rock and roller? Very. Take a peek on Ozzy's biography and you'll see permanent access to the stuff.
Black Sabbath even has a song titled Snowblind. The theme is that they were snowblinded per se when one of their Cocaine containers spread open while touring.
Thanks, I didn't know about it! Checked the song out, and it seems closer to the reality of the drug than the glamourised way that its usually portrayed in movies.

I saw their plane land in El Segundo a few years ago and it blew my mind they flew in a 747 or whatever that jumbo sized plane was. Killer zombie graphic on the outside though
where's the chimney?
Most likely it's somewhere in the cargo area, connected via wifi or bluetooth.
No, it was routed directly to the jet engine's bleed-air system. Interestingly, jet engine was said to be a tad bit more efficient because of it.
Someone else said the fireplace was electric. But had it been wood and routed into the engine intake it could in fact have added efficiency… feel free to fall down the wood gas rabbit hole

This page does say that "coke" is preferred to wood gas for propulsion, which brings us back full circle to Led Zeppelin
Wood gasification jet engine!
As the reddit thread [1] points out:

So a space heater, not a fireplace.
It's a fireplace shaped space heater.
It's like that "nacho cheese" you get at the baseball game. It's really cheese flavored pudding, served hot.

> When the Allman Brothers chartered the plane, they found "Welcome Allman Brothers" written on the plane's bar in lines of cocaine once they boarded.
I wonder how that looks on an expense report

Seems wonderfully on-brand for a band named after a thing that isn’t supposed to fly.
Of course, Mythbusters flew one.

I remember talking to a guy who had to design an elevator in a 747 for some Arab king. Quite a challenge to make sure this would not get stuck while the plane flexes a little.
Just how normalised was cocaine in the 70s?
