Damn Jimmah! Are you gonna take THAT from a Bruin also? Love + One. Next year Jimmah, next year Carl will be exposed for the West Hollywood freak he is. Get that counter sig line ready. fUCLAme won't win another game against SC ever again as long as Pete stays at SC. I will even make a sig bet on that one.socal wrote:Meds, you weren't even born before that '75 show. You got your favorite shirt from Haircut 100,
Great stuff. The only downside to Wolfgang's Vault is the snobbishness of the folks who write their concert reviews.Mikey wrote:www.wolfgangsvault.com
Click on "concert vault" then "performers".
Find Led Zeppelin. It's not video, but priceless soundboard tapes from their first US tour in '69, when they were still second bill and wearing argyle sweaters and shit.
You have to register, but it's free.
The 18 minute version of As Long As I Have You. Awesome.
That's funny, I can name ten shows off the top of my head that were seen by more people, and have circulated amongst more tapers than 4/29/69.After an initial blitz on America in the early months of 1969, where Led Zeppelin primarily opened for other acts, they return in April for their second assault. In Led Zeppelin history, no run of shows is more legendary that these four nights in San Francisco.

Well put question. There are some you may not like as much as others, but again, it depends on your mood at the moment which ones those are. I guess if forced to answer that question, there might be one that if it came on the radio again for the umpteenth millioneth time, I might be tempted to change the channel. That song is "All of my Love"... never dug that song very much.Toddowen wrote: Instead, I thought I'd ask "Which is your least favorite Led Zeppelin song.
Thing is, I couldn't arrive on a single song to submit there, either.
Pretty much.88 wrote:I drank beers with a guy who never heard of Led Zeppelin. He thought I was making a joke or something.
I told him they wrote Stairway to Heaven, which is often ranked as the greatest rock song of all time, and he said: "Not impressed." And blew cigarette smoke in my face.
He asked whether they opened for Kenny Chesney, and I said "Who is Kenny Chesney?" He spit beer in my face and said if I wasn't 6'2", he'd punch me in the chops for that one.
Unless your taco customer's name was Bill Graham and he personally poured the 30 or so shots of vodka needed to kill John Bohnam down his throat, your story is full of shit. The reason Zeppelin canceled the remainder of the 77 dates was due to the death of Plant's son Karac. And I seriously doubt Zep was "booed off the stage" in 1977. That "Day on the Green" show has been written about extensively and I have never heard of a single negative review of it until you broke off that monumentally idiotic (even by your standards) "take".420 wrote:Led Zep sucks ASS!!!
Of course, I was the only one here to be at their last concert in the USA.(Day on the Green)
After that shit concert, where 80,000 people booed them off stage... they never played in America ever again!
I lived across the street from the guy that made that happen(he said they would never play a concert in the USA ever again), and I'll always have respect for him for that... and he bought my taco's at Tortilla Flats in "The City". Led Zep, is the most overrated band in history, and it's not close. Feel free to ask me why,they were never able to play in the USA after that day. I drank beers with the guy that made it happen.

Translation: You have nothing to bring to the table. Last I remember, you were hovering around the 40 year old mark. Which would have made you 11 when Zep played that concert. Care to explain how an 11 year old kid scored tickets to a Zeppelin show? Was your mother some kind of hippy slut that just didn't give a shit about where you were or what you were doing?420 wrote:You're so fucking stupid... it's unreal. Your brain is just a tad to small That would be the equivalent of me telling you about snowfall in shitsville. Once again... you show darwin working... with the U & Out.BSmack wrote:Unless your taco customer's name was Bill Graham and he personally poured the 30 or so shots of vodka needed to kill John Bohnam down his throat, your story is full of shit.

So, if you were really there, tell me how an 11 year old kid was able to score the tickets and make the trip to Oakland. Was your mother too busy sucking off the road crew for Judas Priest to notice where you had gone?420 wrote:Derringer came on stage before Lep, and kicked ass so much that it's legendary... they booed Lep off the stage.
I was there, you fuckin' dipshit... living in upstate NY. But, you know more than me?

I'm not the one who claims I was going to Zeppelin shows at the age of 11. That would be you. Besides, whatever I can Google, you can too. So feel free to dispense with the bullshit and tell the group how you managed to pull this one off.420 wrote:You're an idiot. I lived a mile away...San Francisco, and my parents were a tad more intelligent than yours.

Psst... there were 5 bands playing that day. Can you name them? I'll give you 2 google minutes.
I may not always agree with mvscal. But unlike you, at least I know what the fuck he's talking about.420 wrote:I've given you enough info on the day.
I'll give you this...

That's quite the accomplishment.

No.Dr_Phibes wrote:You could substitute the name 'Rush' for 'Led Zeppelin' and the exact same arguements apply.
only thing I can come up with is bonzo's unfortunate habit of falling asleep on his back after drinking too heavily. This unfortunate event brought an end to the greatest heavy metal act of all time. If john lives through that drunk, I'd like to think that the dark ages of big hair metal never occur.Toddowen wrote:

Zep wasn't necessarily a "hard rock" band. They created their own genre and can't be pidgeonholed quite that simply. Besides, what's the surprise? How the fuck do follow up Led Zep?Mister Bushice wrote:The only thing that surprised me about led zep was how great of an impact they had as a group, and how little impact they had as individuals. Page drifted from project to project, as did JPJ, and page folked it up quite a bit in his solo career. No one of them really carried on the hard rock tradition.
