a tad off topic but i was talking to an old friend the other night and we got into talking about all the great concerts we saw in the 70's and 80's. He asked "What was the best concert you ever saw?"
my first response .. "uhhh .. i don't think you want to know"
he replied "what was it?"
my reply "Led Zeppelin"
his reply .. "Oh yeah, i forgot about that"
he missed the Zeppelin show in April 77 in Louisville because he was climbing over a chain link fence to avoid the man in blue and fell off, fucked his back up a few days before the show. he spent about 5 days on his back in a brace. missed the show. he still has that ticket. we pondered what an un-torn Led Zeppelin ticket might get on Ebay.
i saw Led Zeppelin twice in 1977 and twice with Page and Plant during the UnLedded tour.
i know an English dude who was at the Knebworth show. no one knew it then but everyone at that show were the last people on Earth to see John Henry Bonham play.
RIP Bonzo.
