First on my list of groups that I regret never having seen in concert.

Damn good music.

About 10 years ago I started buying their CDs.

I understand Robert Plant has a home in Austin.

Saw them opening night at Madison Square Garden in 1977....still one of the greatest experiences of my life, next to Live Aid....

Plant was living in Austin for years when he was dating Patty Griffin....don’t know he still has a house there...

I bought a ticket to see them. Four weeks before the concert, Bonham died.

I saw Roberto on the last tour w/ Allison Krause. Def. not Zep, but he sang an impressive version of Evermore. Also a bluegrass rendition of Rock & Roll.

“First on my list of groups that I regret never having seen in concert.”

I saw them twice in 1970. Their sound was raw, thin and incomplete. They needed a touring musician on guitar and keyboards. You know that Jimmy Page guitar was triple tracked onto their songs in the studio/
