Oh, get real...they don't need the money. They coulda done this long ago, and had the grace
never to do anything as Led Zeppelin since Bonham's death. So after 30 years, they are more than
entitled. It's probably gonna be a one-off anyhow. I wouldn't imagine a tour, unless it's a mini, mini
tour. Undoubtedly the most creative metal rock band in history. I nearly got the same excitement I had
back then just reading about the planned concert. I saw them twice. In 70 and 71. The first show
was the best, it was at a time just between Zep I and Zep II. Robert Plant looked and sounded like a
girl and had a hissy fit that people in the front row were yelling during Jimmy Page's violin bow thing
on Dazed and Confused. The encore was Rock n' Roll...(it was not on a record until much later), and
the entire Montreal Forum crowd was on their feet, the hash and cigarette smoke haze thick with the
lights turned on....dancing and screaming. Even my schizoid friend Gordon, was up boogie-ing...they
brought him completely out of his social catatonia. I'd pay every farthing of that price to see them again.... Now where oh where would I get some Red
Lebanese?
