Led Zep - Celebration Day

Despite the fact that Plant had a hard time keeping up on a few songs, it's pretty good.


He lives in Austin now and his wife, Patty Griffin who's a great performer in her own right, had a gig at The Continental Club last Saturday. It was billed as "Patty Griffin and her driver" which got folks thinking - sure enough it was him. I wasn't able to go but heard some clips and he sounded pretty damn good.

High praise. Was this a recent concert?

I have thought they have been mere shadows of themselves for a very longtime now.


+1. I hate to quibble over my taste in music vs. Yours but they were terrible at the 12.12.12 concert. I saw them live in the mid-90s, and they were great, but they on the down slope then

+2. If I want to see a concert from when the Stones were on their game and still relevant...Ladies & Gentlemen: The Rolling Stones.

I saw them in 78, 81 and 89 and none of those shows were very good.

Hardly. Big Grin

In the ranking of living poets, Cohen holds a very high place. About the limit of my ability is being able to recognize him.

Led Zeppelin Celebration Day Double CD that I got for Christmas yesterday.

Wish they would tour again


You and me both - along with about 50 million other people. Could you imagine the Ticketmaster server crashes if they were to announce an on-sale date?


Based on the CD (admittedly, 5 years ago was the concert) they sound fantastic. They obviously don't need the money, because a tour would generate the most $ ever, IMO
