Led Zeppelins original name. The band was originally formed in 1968 by guitarist Jimmy Page under the name The New Yardbirds in order to fulfill some performance commitments booked in Scandinavia before the break up of the original Yardbirds. Vocalist Robert Plant, known from his work with The Band of Joy, was himself on the verge of a record deal when Page saw him perform at West Midlands College of Education with a pickup band of art students and drafted him into the new band. Plant brought with him drummer John Bonham. Bassist John Paul Jones was informed by his wife that Page was forming a group; Jones and Page knew each other well from their days as session musicians and Jones contacted Page who asked him then to join the band.
The band name was later changed to Lead Zeppelin after a comment from Keith Moon (drummer for The Who)

Get the the new yardbirds mug.The generic soda others bring to your party that are so bad you don't even want to bring them in the house after the party is over. So you leave them in the cooler out in the yard until the neighbor kids drink them.
What should we do with all this crappy generic soda left from the party? Leave it in the cooler and tell the neighborhood kids there is free yard soda this week.

Get the Yard Soda mug.A pejorative nickname for someone whose front yard has a lot of clutter such as ceramic gnomes, giant metal winged fairies, bedraggled pinwheels and such.
My neighbor is such an extreme yardtard that the local police cited him for visually disturbing the peace.

Get the yard mug.A girl that looks good from far, but far from good. Fifty yards away she looks like a dime, but as you get closer, you find that she's only a nickel. Maybe worse.
