So glad Gilmour and Wright were able to perform “Echoes” one last time before Rick passed away.

Plasmatics at The Factory in Staten Island. Just kidding. I saw Zep in ‘77 at Madison Square Garden. The Plasmatics, thogh. I still don’t know what I saw.
I was waiting for someone to say this. Iron maiden is actually the best band on the planet even if one doesn’t like metal. The historically significant songs and superior vocals (Bruce) and the rest are all second to none. I don’t see how this is even up for discussion.
That or Genesis' "Supper's Ready"
btw I would encourage you to check out this video of Juma Sultan who played percussion for Jimi at Woodstock. He hjas some really interesting insights into the scene back then and what was happening around Jimi. To be sure, his politics may lean left (though I've met Juma and he is DEFINITELY a capitalist) but it is worth the 80 mins.
I saw The Hooters at a Philly burbs high school in 1984 right before their debut album came out. They were awesome. But they had enough gear for The Spectrum. Loudest concert ever. My ears were ringing for 2-3 days.
OK, "Hot Dog" is rather embarrassing and I'll never understand how that ever made it on the album. But through the magic of iTunes, I have that track surgically removed forever.
It's a shame about that drummer dying for I think Zeppelin was reaching a creative peak and would have had a great run during the 1980s as well. Robert Plant's "Big Log" is a hint of what could have been.
I’m not a fan of ITTOD at all, but Carouselambra is easily one of their top 5 tunes ever. Further, while Moon is my favorite drummer, Bonham’s shuffle on Fool in the Rain shows how deep he could be on the drums. Finally, JPJ had basically taken over creative control of Zeppelin and he can be forgiven for overdoing it on the keys.
Greatest concert I ever attended was Metallica on the Justice tour in 1988.
