Hats off to Led Zeppelin Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Hats off to Led Zeppelin are very proud to announce that from 2012 our promotion and management will be handled by Bandwagon Productions and Warren Grant. Warren’s experience in the music industry is second only to his father, the late Peter Grant, legendary manager of Led Zeppelin, who rewrote the book on band management. Having spent several years working in many areas, Warren has decided to return to music promotion and sees Hats Off To Led Zeppelin as the perfect band to return with. Not content with being Europe's best and most authentic tribute to Led Zeppelin, Hats off to Led Zeppelin have managed to go one step further and been taken under the wing of Warren Grant, son of the legendary Led Zepplein manager Peter Grant. Warren went to see the band perform last year in Bournemouth, close to his home, and was so impressed with the band he decided to approach them about joining forces. Warren said 'Hats off to you guy...keep up the outstanding work, you really did the band justice' Come and see the band on tour all over the UK and beyond. www.hatsofftoledzeppelin.co.uk April 27th De Pul, Uden, Netherlands. 28th the Rock Temple, Kerkrade, Netherlands.

f2walsh Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Id love to see this band if they could venture across the pond! That's cool that Warren like Zeppelin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barney2EH Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 They are coming to my little neck of the woods on he 13th May. Maybe I'll ask Warren about that dressing room door if he's there. Or maybe I won't, he looks a bit like a night club doorman and he may have had enough of that particular question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hats off to Led Zeppelin Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Hi, we are working on coming to the USA as we speak! Where are you based? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hats off to Led Zeppelin Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Warren is a really nice bloke but sadly doesn't manage to get to all our gigs. See you at the Music in the Parks festival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barney2EH Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I'm sure Warren is a lovely guy. I'm really looking forward to seeing Hats Off as we don't get much in the way of proper music out here in the sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barney2EH Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Any of you Hats Off guys ever met anyone from the band? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_Zoso Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Hey, very cool news! Well done guys. I live in a concert loving town, having a top notch Led Zeppelin tribute band come here would be fantastic. Keep us posted if you do have plans of a North American tour. We have great venues here localy, low end of 30-40 people to a venue that hosted 80,000 for the Rolling Stones. Our population...69,074! People love coming here, we'd love to see you too!

Hats off to Led Zeppelin Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 We are hoping to get out to Las Vegas later in the year, but so far no plans for anything further North. I personally have met Jason Bonham, Micky Bonham and Deborah Bonham (John Bonham's brother and sister), Kevin our bass player has met John Paul jones and Pete our singer had the pleasure of meeting Jimmy Page at a birthday party. Only got Robert Plant to go and we are hoping to meet him in Gloucester in a few weeks' time!

barney2EH Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Really looking forward to seeing these guys on Sunday in Thame. Apparently, the Monsoon weather is going to hold off for the day . Beer, Burgers and Zep, what could be finer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonhamite Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 All your band needs now is a Paiste 38" Symphonic Gong, and Paiste 2002/Giant Beat cymbals if you're not using those already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hats off to Led Zeppelin Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Hi Bonhamite, I already do use a Paiste 38" Symphonic gong and a set of Paiste 2002 red label cymbals in Bonham sizes, along with my Ludwig John Bonham Vistalite re-issue kit and my 402 snare. I don't, unfortunately, have any Ludwig timps, just a pair of Premier ones. See the picture at the top of the post if you can. Hi Barney, did you get to the Music in the Park gig yesterday, the weather was brilliant and we had a great, if slightly curtailed, time. Hope to be back there next year!

barney2EH Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Hi Simon Yes it was a really great day thanks. Really enjoyed your set, especially Kashmir which sounded terrific. Shame it was all a bit truncated as I think Peters voice was just getting really in the groove. I must get to see a full set of yours very soon. Had 6 pints of Marston Pedigree so feeling slightly jaded today but very worth it. You will be very welcome next year of course. Cheers Barney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hats off to Led Zeppelin Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 Hi Barney, yeah shame about the short set. Hopefully next year will be even better. Thanks, Simon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
