Twelve Months Ten Years Gone

Because it's always time for some Zep.

Thanks so much for that. It brought me back.

I got to see Zep by accident, in '69. Went to see Taj Mahal, the opening act, but his van broke down and he didn't show. So we got four hours of "Led Who?" I seriously didn't know.

But my Bro and I had down-front tickets, literally fifteen feet from center stage in an acoustically perfect small auditorium. And we stayed for the show, despite the travails of our hero Taj.

Changed my fuckin' life, it did.

Oh, and we both agreed it was worth the $5.00 price of admission ;); December 30, 2007 at 12:34 AM

Randal Graves said...: TCR, I know that was in 1969 bucks, but FIVE DOLLARS for fucking Zeppelin? Man. The last time they played Cleveland I was four. Seeing them back in their heyday would've been pretty goddamn sweet.

ME, oh I saw, believe you me.

AC, a criminally underrated tune. I think these guys will go far.; December 30, 2007 at 6:25 AM
Freida Bee said...: Damn this YouTube blockage at work. It's just behind a firewall or something and I can't get to it. I'll have to get my Led out later.; December 30, 2007 at 9:40 AM

Randal Graves said...: Okay, everyone get out your Zep CDs/tapes/albums/8-tracks and the alcoholic beverage/illegal substance of your choice. If you have to work tomorrow, just call in sick. I'll write you all up a note.

LBR, it certainly does, but he rocks like a courageous one. All Hail Zeppelin.; December 30, 2007 at 8:14 PM
Freida Bee said...: Ok, I got to watch it now. I'll take my note now, Dr..; December 31, 2007 at 12:02 AM

Randal Graves said...: Freida Bee, take two of these and call me in the morning.

Colleen, lounging around in your PJs, getting altered with the Zep. I'm going to write myself a note!; December 31, 2007 at 6:04 AM
