At the risk of doing something, er, illegal, I thought I would liven things up here by giving all of you cool cats who didn't have the good fortune of being in London last night for the long-awaited Led Zeppelin reunion gig a taste of what you - and I - missed. So kick back, pull out that dusty bottle of Jack Daniels (in honor of Mr. Bonham) and ride back with us to those days of yesteryear when men were men, women were women, and rock bands consistently blew the roof off the joint. (And praise God for the gift of YouTube.)
In order of set list:
"Good Times Bad Times" (the very first song on the very first Zeppelin album - fitting start to the concert, don't you think?)
"Stairway to Heaven" (or, as Robert Plant calls it, "that damn wedding song")
"Kashmir"
Encore No. 1 - "Whole Lotta Love" (not including, sadly, Rachel Dratch on the cello)
Note: Look at all the bald spots in the audience - classic!
Encore No. 2 - "Rock and Roll" (not including, happily, any Cadillac imagery)
Note: Sorry for the crappy sound on this one.
There was more, much more, but those are the only complete songs I could find on YouTube at the present moment. Still, you get the idea. This should tide you over until the world tour. (What?)
