  1. Welcome to our happy Led Zeppelin hangout!

      Depends on what you are asking? Do you mean Led Zeppelin bootlegs? Or areas of the Forum? I mostly hang out in the Live section, as that's where the best conversations are about Led Zeppelin's concerts and the bootlegs from these concerts. 

      For other bands, current bands and older music, there are some cool threads in the Other Music/Bands section of the forum. Before the coronavirus shut everything down, the What Concerts Are You Going To?/What Concerts Have You Seen? threads were fun topics to visit. Same thing with the Going to the Movies thread in the Ramble On section. If you like reading books, watching tv, or food and wine, there are threads for those subjects in the Ramble On section.

      Do you play an instrument and want to discuss Led Zeppelin from a musician's perspective and get into instrument and gear detail, the Musicians Corner of the forum is just the place for you.

      Okay...it is 100 degrees and I'm melting. Ciao.

      Haha...yes, after pouring some for the dearly departed I saved you a few fingers worth.

  3. Very cool that you were at that 6/21 show too! I've been to over 500 shows at least and the intensity of both the band and the crowd that night have never been matched! And it's not even close!. The funniest thing is looking at the price on your ticket stub- $5.25. I paid $6.75 for first row above walkway right at corner of the stage on JPJ's side. I saw where someone posted that you wrote a great post about that show. I'd love to read that. Is it still on the Forum site? Hopefully I'll get that new version out ASAP. Take care, Gary

      My avatar is of my 1972 Forum ticket stub. For the 1977 shows I paid around $9. Look for "Strider's 1977 Tour Thread" in the Main Section of the Zep forum.

    This is the last straw. That racist, sexist bigot Jones has got Ressie kicked off. One rule for one.... ?

      WTF? I've been taking a break from the forum....and from politics. I'll have to catch up on what happened.

      Meanwhile, I missed Peter Hook's book signing last month. Have you got his book? Is it any good?

  5. Hi Sean

    I hope all is well? Just to let you know Phil from Hookey's crew was admitted to hospital over the weekend with Pneumonia. More then likely caught it whilst in Mexico with the band in an AC room. He went to Bali for a week on holiday and collapsed in Singapore. He said he had to crawl to get on the plane. He is not well at all and the doctors say he is very lucky as this type can kill the elderly and the young. It's early days and he is being well looked after but he didn't sound great when I spoke to him yesterday,

    I might make him a big bowl of veggie stew for comfort and hope he returns home soon.

      Holy fuck! David, I am only now seeing this post of yours. The new upgrade messed with a lot of the functions on this site. Please give my best to Phil. I am pulling for him. Your message is a several weeks old so I hope you have good news and Phil is in the clear. Ta, Sean

  6. Sean, I did not know your birthday was one day before mine?  I was born in 1957 so I think I am older?   Happy B day Sean.  I will be in LA 9, 10, 11 of August.  Rodando Beach

      Yep. I always remember your birthday being a day after me...and you are three years older. I was born in 1962 which makes me 54 now. I sent you a message and also posted a reply to one of your posts about your trip but you never answered back. I asked if you were interested in going to see Jeff Beck and Buddy Guy at the Hollywood Bowl on August 10? I think most of the good seats are gone by now but it isn't sold out.

  7. Hi Sean! :) Thank you so much for both the emails you sent me. Apologies for not being able to keep in touch for so damn long! My Uni work is literally burying me alive at the moment! Today is like the first time I have come on here in 2 months! Anyway, things are looking up! :) How are you? Hope you're doing better now after all that tiresome stuff regarding your phone and all! :)

      Thanks Kiwi! Always good to hear from you. I sort of figured Uni had you busy. Keep flying the Garage-Rock flag!

  8. Haven't been home for 5 minutes, & my silly dogs already have me scratched up. Sometimes, I am glad I don't have a gun handy....

      Wow, your life seems to be a whirlwind right now...hope you're okay? You seem a little down.
