Oh god I would have loved to be at the Led Zep reunion gigs.
I swear to God,
Scout my spirit left my body when they started.
I’ve never heard a roar like it from the crowd.
And the most beautiful thing? All the cynics thought they would be rubbish, they’re too old, they’ll have lost it etc...
The performance was PERFECTION. Robert’s voice, the raw sexuality, Jimmy’s outstanding playing, JPJ keeping the rhythm and his playing on ‘Kashmir’ was orgasmic. (Sorry). They were so tight, they’d obviously put the work in at rehearsals.
And then Jason Bonham. Sitting in his father’s seat and destroying those drums with every beat. His timing with JPJ and the rhythm they created was divine.
I could barely speak when it was over. I wore my wristband for about six months until it started to fray!
I was so grateful, twenty million ticket applications, one night only, and I was there. I have never confessed out loud how much I paid for my ticket, but nothing was stopping me from being in that room.
The DVD of the gig is pretty good, although it does have a bit of Jimmy Page tinkering going on with the editing.😀
