thanks for posting these, chris.


I believe my first crush was of robert plant after watching this video.



i just remember sitting there watching him and being completely mesmerized. I couldnt' take my eyes off of him while he was shaking his hips in those low-cut pants

of course the music i didn't really care for. i grew up on this stuff, but i was too busy listening to NKOTB and paula abdul I did smarten up though


well. I still listen to them sometimes

I hate to admit it, but this sounds like ****! I know that Jimmy Page hasn't played a full show in a very long time, and I realize that Plant lost much of his range... But it was sloppy and way out of tune. I do respect the fact that it's just the four of them doing this without a lot of help (well, not including the echo/delay effect on the vocal mic), but it sometimes verges on a bad cover band.

Oh, the Zeppelanity!

I really liked it. It was far from perfect, but "sounds like [shiitte]" -- OUCH

I am sure it will be cleaned up for the DVD.

I really don't see how they can salvage some of this performance for a DVD; there are some moments that are so douche-chillingly bad. Just listen again to the last verse of "Stairway to Heaven," and the totally botched note in "There walks a LA-dy we all know..." That has to be any singer's nightmare. And the song was in a much, much lower key than the original to begin with...

But, okay, I will admit that "Kashmir" was just a hair shy of brilliant. It's amazing that just three instrumentalists can make such a big sound; indeed, John Paul Jones (who's looking very good!) has proved why he was such an essential element of LZ.

I too am bummed that there was nothing from In Through the Outdoor," but then again, they would have had to bring in an extra musician to handle all of the keyboards. I have always thought "In the Evening" rocked harder than just about anything they've ever done. And I'm one of the 6 people in the world who absolutely loves "Carouselambra." Oh well...

Hell yes. In The Evening is one of my favorite songs. I was hoping for All My Love too but maybe Robert doesn't want to sing it anymore because it's about his son.

"In Through the Out Door" was IMO a departure from the more esoteric stuff that preceded it. "Fool in the Rain" is one of my favorite songs they ever did, but it is IMO consciously way more of a pop song than, say, "When the Levee Breaks."

As an aside, I wonder if Lux saw the concert or if she is watching it on the net sources. She LOVED JP so.

"Well, they were a quarter-right: Reports now indicate that Robert Plant and Alison Krauss will perform at the Tennessee fest as part of the Raising Sand tour. But then there’s the biggest rumor of them all, courtesy of British newspaper The Sun via Blabbermouth via NME, which said backstage banter between bandmembers led to one of them admitting he wants to return to the States to play three shows at New York’s Madison Square Garden."
