NorthShoreBlues Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I checked out robert's setlists on setlistfm and he's playing alot of led zeppelin. I don't understand why he is not incorporating any of his solo tunes. He has quie a few good songs. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he’s just playing what he wants to play (with a variety of originals: solo and Led Zeppelin as well as a few blues covers reimagined).

So odd in fact, that I think you might be making it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bong-Man Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Here's my thought...People need to understand that Robert has now distanced himself from most of his past solo career even more efficiently than his Zeppelin past, and that's been going on for quite some time.

Mook Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 He's Robert Plant, he's 70 years old & he doesn't have to pander to anyone else at this stage in his career. He's playing the songs that he wants to play & going by the times I've seen him, he's enjoying himself & so are the audience. If you don't like the look of his set lists or his concerts, don't go & see him. It's really quite simple. His (& Led Zeppelin's) entire back catalogue is there if you want to listen to any of it on your stereo at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithril46 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 So another words Robert is not singing any of his solo tunes, it's all Zep ?? A funny joke, but I guess I'LL look this up myself. I'm I'm not a fan of Robert's since Fate Of Nations anyway, but this is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another consideration is that the band he is touring with is the band he has been making music with in the recent past, so they are doing songs from the recent albums. Makes sense to me. He did not construct this band to do songs from the 80s and 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I count four Zeppelin originals, a few covers Zeppelin did, a bunch of solo material and a few covers of his own. Hmm, seems like a well rounded set to me. I just saw him and he played In The Mood, Rainbow, Carry Fire, May Queen, Please Read the Letter (not my favorite) plus more, lots of solo material?

It'd be great if he ever went back heavy into the first two albums, maybe Little by Little, Ship of Fools, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
