You love it. You gotta admit the medley section on How The West Was Won is a sad bit of music history.

Ever heard the story of when Page and Plant got to hang with Elvis for a couple of hours in [edit] LA?

I read Hammer of the Gods.

But not that I remember.

They met Elvis in Vegas.
Got drunk, had a cool time.
Wake up in the morning, it's 1995.
Turns out they were fooled by an impersonator, and not a very good one either.

Shut the **** up

The grown ups are having a goddamn conversation

A lot of Hammer of the Gods is crap.

So am I. You seriously never read 95 at the Luxor?

Go eat your mommy’s breakfast burrito you suburban bitch

#downwithfrown

At least keep your ad hominems accurate.

I can send you a pdf if you want.

Let's make it happen people!

The wise ones will #godownonfrown.

Gross.

Totally gross.

I'm ****ing gacking here.

I thought the flu was bad....

I was obviously not talking about you.

and he was clearly talking about me

Remember when I clenched and you got your tongue stuck? I was very proud of myself on that day.

I'm so fed up with praying to porcelain.....

There's nothing worse than a selfish lover. Fight through the vomit like a real man!

not the first time i've heard that.

Were you like

* tries desparately to pull thread back to a less nauseating topic*

I never saw Led Zep or J Tull; the best concerts I saw were probably Neil Young, Captain Beefheart, Dylan, Soft Machine and Roy Buchanan.

Kinda hard to do on a Zeppelin thread.

Nice, I saw The Magic Band on their last American tour which is as close as I could have ever gotten to seeing Beef live. They were surprisingly on point and top 3 concert material for me.

What year did you see Soft Machine in? Also re: less nauseating direction, you do know what a soft machine is right :D?

Comment of the day :laughing:

^ Yes, I saw a clip of theirs on Youtube and, not expecting very much, was surprised at how good they were. I was lucky enough to see Beefheart twice; first time brilliant, second time patchy if truth be told.

That's easy to date because I was actually at one of the recording locations for Soft Machine Six ( https://www.allmusic.com/album/six-mw0000180049 ), so that makes it Oct or Nov 1972.

I know the name comes, like Steely Dan, from William Burroughs, so I can make a reluctant guess I suppose!

Wish I'd seen all of those bands. Had tickets to see Floyd on the Animal's tour and I FFFFFFFFFFstupidly gave them away.

Stupidly knows no bounds.

^ ftfy.

Yes, London in the seventies was crazy with great bands. Dylan was promoting Street Legal when I saw him, Neil Young with a huge repertoire did two sets; one of quiet solo material, the second blasting away with (I presume) Crazy Horse.
I also saw Floyd, Genesis and Grateful Dead, but don't remember those concerts today...

I had the chance to see a French Canadian tribute band called The Musical Box recreated Genesis' Foxtrot and Selling England by the Pound tour. I never pay any attention to who touring, so I haven't seen many concerts. I feel extremely lucky I got a chance to see them even if there are a tribute band. I had goosebumps all throughout the concert.

A bunch of excerpts spliced together.
The Musical Box performs Genesis

^ Well, the sound of this is really close to Genesis, and that frontman puts a lot of effort into his performance, so I can imagine it was a great evening.

I suppose a tribute band has to work very hard, both in terms of the number and the quality of their live shows, because the poor guys will never make much money on cd sales I imagine: everyone goes for the original artist.

That clip was great. I got to see Aussie Pink Floyd a few years back and they did The Wall in its entirety. Then for an encore they did DSOTM. Beyong amazing and same thing - goosebumps all night.

I think I even cried during this:

I saw Floyd on the MLoR tour at Festhalle in Frankfurt Germany. Front row. Right in front of Richard Wright.

You may kiss the ring.

Post Waters Floyd blows.

#hawkishvista

So do people that haven't seen them live.

**** I saw Rog - Pros and Cons

Now that's what I call a tossup.

OH crazier than a fish wit titties.

Solo Waters > Gilmour led Floyd

That's just the way it is.

Nothing to do with Led Zep, not a concert I went to, but this is surely a goosebump moment in music:-

i) prelude to goosebumps:.................................................. ............ii) goosebumps all the way:

****ing awesome!
