1. The Song Remains Insane

If that list is true, I'm impressed.

Led Zeppelin haven't played a proper concert since 1980 and they still churn out 40% non-warhorses (counting NFBM as a warhorse and GT/BT as a non-warhorse).

Take a friggin' look at that MICK, KEITH, CHARLIE, RONNIE and CHUCK!!!

thanks for posting. great photos, although i think Page needs to borrow some of John Paul Jones' hair dye.

I don't know about JPJ, but I think it's cool that Jimmy Page hasn't dyed his hair. He doesn't look like he's trying to be younger than he is. And it looks fine too, not bad at all.

OPENING SONG (Official - just played):

GOOD TIMES/BAD TIMES

first song is good times bad times - the show is on.
zep fans can go to planet zep forum, and please do...
for live song by song comments etc...

Well, if Beely (who shows up the last minute) wants to go around hijacking threads (this one and another) - it ain't gonna happen, Iz be gone....

UPDATE, Beely REDEEMED himself by posting a lot of useful info/links on the Zeppers so all is forgiven... Rock On and Continue....

helter; don't get personal; ok? we talked about this. have fun go wild but don't get personal; i make no comments about your constant frothing on a number of issues; and just enjoy you.

i'm not hijacking anything; and this is a historic occasion and i get that you're excited.
u just jump off my cloud; we've already been thru this...
there was to be no more personal attack stuff. ok? kindly play that with someone else.
and let's keep it friendly. if we can't do that, and we surely could, then let's just keep it non-personal please.
some people will apprciate the direct link i left.

Setlist with comments from NME:

'Good Times Bad Times'
"The set started with a clip from 'The Song Remains The Same' DVD with an American news clip telling of they broke The Beatles' attendance record for a gig in 1973 in California. Simple stage set, video screen behind the band."

'Ramble On'
"'Ramble On' done in extremely slow, bluesy manner, with shards of electric guitar from Jimmy Page."

'Black Dog'
"Page wearing dark shades, quite muddy sound. Crowd singing the 'ah-ah' bits back at Plant."

'In My Time Of Dying'
"Page is playing bottleneck guitar. Plant spoke for the first time before song, saying 'Good evening'."

'For Your Life'
"That's not something you get to hear often these days, Led Zeppelin giving a song its live debut."

'Trampled Under Foot'
"Before starting Plant told the crowd it was the band's attempt to sound like Robert Johnson's 'Terraplane Blues'."

'Nobody's Fault But Mine'
"There are huge screen's dominating the O2 Arena, they split into four sometimes, goes monochrome, colour etc...quite spectacular."

'No Quarter'
"Following the song Plant paid tribute to John Paul Jones, who played keyboards and bass on the track."

'Since I've Been Loving You'
"A bit of a style guide for you, all the band are dressed in black bar Page who is rocking a white shirt. As for the song they gone for the epic version....very bluesy."

'Dazed And Confused'
"Settle yourselves in, we're expecting a ten minute version of this classic... it was. At the end of it of the song Plant told the audience 'On guitar Jimmy Page, just as he did on 'The Song Remains The Same' DVD which was filmed in Madison Square Garden in the 70s."

'Stairway To Heaven'
"What do you think happened? Right! From the moment those opening notes rang out the whole audience went absolutely crazy. The atmosphere is electric. Afterwards Plant said "Ahmet, we did it!"

'The Song Remains The Same'
"A fairly straight version of the classic. The sound is still a bit muddy and quiet though."

'Misty Mountain Hop'
"Plant kicked this one off by praising the job drummer Jason Bonham has been doing, stepping into his late father's shoes tonight."

'Kashmir'
"Yet another epic, as this song cracks the ten minute mark. Plant introduced this one declaring 'We've got people from 50 countries here and this is the 51st'. Afterwards they left the stage to loud applause. Will they do an encore? What do you reckon..."

'Whole Lotta Love'
"... of course they come back to deafening applause. And it's an extended version of the old 'Top Of The Pops' theme. Then once more the band leave the stage with a visibly emotional Plant declaring:
'Thanks to everybody. Thanks Ahmet Ertegun, this one for is Ahmet Ertegun as we remember the days when Atlantic Records was the best label on the planet!'."

is it just me or does plant's hair look a little strange(being so long)for a man his age? of course I guess he wouldnt look right w/o it long or maybe i'm just jealous cause he still has his!!!!

...Maybe, Plant's following in the footsteps of AQUALUNG - stranger things have happened.... Seriously, He's a Life Long Hippie (and good for him, he always had that side), that's the deal on his long hair IMHO.....

Yeah, you"re right. And I think I AM just jealous!!
