Title: Zeppelin 02 Arena show
Post by: Joker on December 11, 2007, 12:45:01 PM
Well the mighty Led Zeppelin had their one-off reunion gig last night. The show was filmed so I pray that it will be released to the public eventually.
I know some people here don\'t like em and generally think Zeppelin is overrated. But even if they didn\'t have the level of fame that they do I can\'t say i\'d have a different favourite band because these guys are it for me when it comes to music. As a little kid I remember putting pillows on my bed and hitting them with spoons as I tried to mimic John Bonham. Zeppelin was what my dad listened to so before I knew who they really were I was already a fan. My first tattoo was a tiny replica of the symbols from Led Zeppelin IV (zoso)
I\'ve seen a very brief video from the show last night and of course Plant doesn\'t have the vocal power he use to. But hell, he ceartinly didn\'t make a fool of himself.
Heres hoping that maybe they will be inspired to do one last full tour. I don\'t have words in my vocabulary to describe how happy I would be to see them live in person.

Overrated? Zeppelin? People really think that?
Who, Black Sabbath devotees?

I know Blade. I know. It makes my brain bleed. Yes, it usually does come from someone who only likes Sabbath and hard death metal music. At least from my experience.

Over rated? Actually, there\'s not enough people appreciating Zep.

I should of reworded my original paragraph. I made it sound like a lot of people think they are over rated. What I ment to say was the few and rare that I have met who dislike the band simply stand out more in my mind on account of stupidity.
