wish i was there in London





Last nite at O2 Arena London (formerly known as 'Millennium Dome') was the venue of the one-off reunion concert of rock legends LED ZEPPELIN, arguably the most influential rock band of all time.

Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John
Paul Jones were joined by the late John Bonham son Jason on drums
for the one-off comeback.

Back in September when organizers announced the show, the O2 Arena site selling tickets crashed as
millions of fans across the world rushed for about 20,000 seats, which was then made available via a lottery system.

After all, this is the band that brought us some defining rock anthems  such as 'Stairway To Heaven', 'Whole Lotta Love' and 'Kashmir' to name a few.

and whether you are a fan of Metallica or Sepultura, or Aerosmith, or U2, or Napalm Death, or Nirvana, or Search/Wings/Feminin, i'm sure there are some influence of Led Zep in their songs.























*update*:this site claimed that they got the 'world's first Led Zeppelin reunion review'. i'll try to embed a clip if i find one.  Meanwhile, please enjoy this one:

ditto. Led Zep is king (and Elvis is dead)

yesterday's theStar (section 2?) got 1-page article about their style which somehow have some connection to Islamic musical elements.

Zeps was here if im not mistaken last summer but unfortunately the ticket is by invitation only as the place is limited...

jimlucky said...

are u sure? this is their first proper reunion since the breakup of the band in 1980 after Bonham's death...

maybe the one u mention was not with full members(?)(the logic: jimmy page and robert plant has been in loggerhead in years...they only reconcile recently)

epifit said...

probably bro. as the tickets is only for the invitees only.

Masa diorang kasi tickets too aku ada kat park jugak tapi hampeh tak kasi kat aku maybe due to im too young to go as i saw they gave all the tickets to the veterans!!! *sigh..............*
