===="Royal Orleans"====
It is rumoured that the Led Zeppelin song "[[Royal Orleans]]", from their album ''[[Presence (album)|Presence]]'', is about an experience Jones once had on tour in the United States.<ref name="westword.com"/><ref name="Dave">Dave Lewis (1994), ''The Complete Guide to the Music of Led Zeppelin'', Omnibus Press, {{ISBN|0-7119-3528-9}}.</ref> The song is about a person who mistakenly takes a [[drag queen]] up to his hotel room, who then falls asleep with a joint of [[cannabis (drug)|marijuana]] in hand, lighting the room on fire. "Royal Orleans" was the name of a hotel where the members of Led Zeppelin would stay when they visited New Orleans, because not as many people asked for autographs there. In an interview he gave to ''[[Mojo magazine]]'' in 2007, Jones clarified the reliability of this rumour, stating:

{{blockquote|The transvestites were actually friends of [[Richard Cole]]'s; normal friendly people and we were all at some bar. That I mistook a transvestite for a girl is rubbish; that happened in another country to somebody else ... Anyway 'Stephanie' ended up in my room and we rolled a joint or two and I fell asleep and set fire to the hotel room, as you do, ha ha, and when I woke up it was full of firemen!<ref name=snow/>}}
