No argument.

It must have been a fantastic experience.

Excellent stuff, I was only just discovering them in the mid-seventies and was just a bit too young to have made that show, although I did see them in Zurich in 1980 - a bit past their prime but still Led Zeppelin. thumbup

you're lucky. I've only seen Page & Plant doing their lounge thing in recent years as I wasn't even born 40 yrs ago. Love old bootlegs - must have been an amazing experience to see them live in their prime.

38 years later and The Voice is still there (even if the snake hips have long since left the building)

Still remember going to get tickets for this came out earls court station on a Saturday morning at 6am and tickets on sale from 10am.
There was a massive queue going all the way to the back of earls court then around 8.30 someone shouted box office open and then all the people sleeping over night were at the back of the free for All in the queue
Box office did not open till 10 am but came away with 4th row and 8th row tickets in the middle for the first and last night.
Concert did seem to go on for ever and even recorded it on a tape player

It was like that in '78 trying to get Dylan Earls Court tickets. Up at 7am to join the HUGE queue. Them was the days. Much more fun than Ticketmaster.
