I know a lot of you are too young to appreciate this, but oh well. Damn, I wish I could have been there. :(

That song was made amazing to me by Godzilla.

I like the background music but the vocals sound like death to me.

Shoot ... I am right there man. Although John Bonham kicks any drummers butt who attempts to those songs. His use of "ghost-triplets" combined with high-hat and bass drum is second to none. When I saw "The Song Remains the Same" in the late 70s I knew at that moment I had to play drums -- which was later confirmed in my heart by the Buddy Rich vs. Animal drum-off on the Muppet Show.

Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all.

I've seen that. Awesome times ten. And BTW Animal and Ace Ventura are my life heroes.

Kinda tricky to get to the O2 Areana, such a big venue, and only severed by the jubilee line, which is such a random line

who goes by boat?

and i'd have to change 4 busses to get there

I totally agree with you there, TC. When I first heard that they were doing a reunion show, I instantly thought it would be crap. John Bonham was the drive behind Zeppelin, and the last I heard anything from Jason Bonham wasn't really all that impressive. He really shocked me on this show though...was way better than I thought he would be. Jimmy Page appeared to be in good form too, just judging from the youtube videos i've seen so far...haven't seen that in years.

here's a couple more I found. enjoy them while you can, since Warner Brothers is trying to have them all taken down.

Good times!! Wow ... that takes me WAY back!

You haven't seen "The Immigrant Song" in that collection, have you?

^ naw, they didn't do The Immigrant Song. Not sure that Robert Plant could have hit those notes these days, but it would have been kind of fun to see him try. [lol] Hard to believe these guys, aside from Jason, are all over 60 years old. Time flies...

Here was the set list-

GOOD TIMES, BAD TIMES
RAMBLE ON
BLACK DOG
IN MY TIME OF DYING
FOR YOUR LIFE
TRAMPLED UNDERFOOT
CUSTARD PIE (Intro)
NOBODY"S FAULT BUT MINE
NO QUARTER
SINCE I'VE BEEN LOVING YOU
DAZED & CONFUSED
STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN
THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME
MISTY MOUNTAIN HOP
KASHMIR
<encore>
WHOLE LOTTA LOVE
ROCK AND ROLL
