This is what I did yesterday (to late to post for "today"). I got my car inspected even though I have a cracked windshield on the passenger side (the cracked windshield came about 4 months ago when there was a very fierce thunderstorm in Plano that produced softball sized hail, luckily only that part of my windshield was slightly damaged). Anyway, I looked into a complete windshield replacement and the cost of that would be roughly $300. I can afford that but would rather not. I went to the inspection station and asked the guy if my car would pass with a cracked windshield and he said yes, it will pass. My only concern after that is would my car pass any of the myriad of other "tests" that the inspection station tests.
It did and I was happy to pay the $25.50.
That gives me another 365 days to purchase a car that is from this century and not the last.
Good Day...

I grew up with Triumph in the mid 1980's and have loved them ever since. I will admit that my love for them seemed to have diminished over time because they did not seem to make records anymore after the time that I really began to love them. As much as Triumph made their (short) mark as a Canadian Power Trio, in My opinion, Rush took over their fan base here in the United States. Even though Triumph made a couple of good albums, Rush was already a solid and established band from Canada since 1973 and seemed to overtake and become more popular.

Don't know if this is true, anything is possible however I would find it quite funny if true, after all, Bonzo was no celibate on the road so if Pat did have a liaison while Johnny Boy was out plowing the fields...good for her.
Whats good for the goose ya know
First of all, I should have said, from what I've read. I think it was from "When Giants Walked the Earth" (I could be mistaken). Anyway from what I remember reading, John Bonham came back from a tour ('75 or '77?) and had a suspicion that Glenn Hughes had "been" with his wife Pat. This apparently sent Bonzo into a massive fury that he was heard to say that He wanted to kill Glen Hughes.
Again, I could be wrong but I do not have to research anything. How does anyone who does not like this post think that I am wrong? Maybe I am right and you are wrong? Who's to say. I Love Led Zeppelin as much as anybody on this awesome forum, I try to not disparage anyone with what they post or what their opinions might be (I probably have in the past and I admit this, though I try not to anymore).
My thought is, why would my original post offend anyone? I don't really care who John Bonham or Pat Bonham "slept" with. I wasn't there and could care less what happen between who and who and so and so.

From what I know, John Bonham almost tried to kill Glen Hughes because Glen Hughes supposedly "slept" with Pat Bonham.

Every time Black Sabbath have come to Phoenix since they reunited in 1997 I have not missed them. 50/50 chance I will go see them on the 21st. If i miss them it will be okay, they have been playing 99% the same songs in concert since 1997.
I hear you and read you, but to be in the "Presence" of thousands of Black Sabbath fans, all of Us there for the same reason, is a remarkable phenomenon that cannot be duplicated, no matter how many times anyone has seen them. Just My opinion.
Go, have fun and Rock Out with everyone else there waiting to hear "After Forever":
I just wished they played "Sweet Leaf":

^ Saw them a couple of summers ago - great show! The wife really enjoyed it too, even though she likes Ozzy solo better than Sabbath. Glad you had a good one!
Thanks!!! I do not know how many more gigs that Black Sabbath have on this "final" tour, but I highly encourage any who has a chance to see them, see them. It was a great concert with a great setlist.

At the Wacken Open Air Festival earlier this year The Dio Disciples played and had a DIO hologram during We Rock:
That was awesome. Thanks for posting it. I can't believe it has been over 6 years since Ronnie James Dio left this world. I still really do miss him.

Of all the hundreds of Rock and Roll or Heavy Metal Bands, How many on this Awesome Forum can claim to have witnessed Black Sabbath last night in Dallas, Texas? Even more direct to the point, have seen Ozzy, Geezer, and Tony live on stage in the past 20 years?
I just saw all three in Dallas in the middle section of the Pavilion, about the closest I could get with a "lawn ticket". I have great video footage from my phone, the problem is, is I don't know how to upload said footage.

Black Sabbath just came onstage opening with "Black Sabbath". Live in Dallas, Texas.

Black Sabbath this Wednesday (9/7) in Dallas, Texas. My friend who bought the tickets told me yesterday that he cannot go so he is giving me his ticket.
I have asked a couple of friends if they want to go (for free) but they said that they don't know yet. If all else fails, any takers here who would like to go? (Strider, ebk, LedZeppfan1977, Walter, SAJ, zepscoda, lpman and all the others that I can't think of at this moment. All it will cost any of yous is a plane ride to the Great City called Dallas). As a last resort, I will just give the ticket to my brother (which really should be my first resort).

This may or may not have been posted in this topic, regardless if it has been, this is one Fucking Hell of a Firm Gig that was, thankfully recorded professionally for posterity. I saw the Firm twice. Once in 1985 and then in 1986. Actually, I could be wrong on the years but I know that I have seen the Firm twice in two different years and when promoting two different albums.

How about another from Mr. Plant from 1990?
Yes, No, Maybe?
I don't know about anyone else, but I saw about 3 shows from this tour, not these but the ones from the Midwest that included Saint Louis, Kansas City and Memphis.

"Stir Crazy" is hilarious. Always loved Gene Wilder. As Jules says a talented and genuinely funny man
Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor were two of the best comedic duos in the Movie Industry back in the late 1970'.

Robert Plant circa 1990 in Joplin, Missouri:

If My thoughts or recommendations are actually taken into account or for anything, I highly suggest binge watching these shows:
the Sopranos
Breaking Bad
Game of Thrones
the Walking Dead
Ray Donovan
Entourage
Weeds...

Another nice find if I say so myself:

This is also a great video of Jimmy Page and Robert Plant (and Company):

A lack of outtakes. You're not gonna tell me what we got in the companion discs was all there was...cmon. Give us the 30 or 40 starts and half-baked versions of Stairway or Kashmir.
I would love to hear the two other "Stairway to Heaven" with the two different guitar solos.

I have to say that Guns n Roses in Dallas was a great fucking concert. I really didn't know what to expect (except that I knew Slash would be awesome), but I was really impressed with Axl and the rest of the band.
One thing to note that I did notice was that Duff McKagan was wearing a Lemmy t-shirt and on the top left corner of his bass was Prince's symbol in purple. I thought that that was pretty cool.

Who is the opener? Being at the Cowboys stadium will make that show epic!
The Cult. I may end up catching the end of their set. I am leaving for the show around 7:30 and the concert starts at 8.

"Your number one fan"...
...and the same dude yelling some weird shit before the beginning of Black Dog.
Actually this guy says a lot of funny and weird shit throughout the entire concert in Dublin. So much so that that someone next or nearby to him laughs at some of the things this guy says (or screams):
Zeppelin Albums in context
in Led Zeppelin Master Forum
Posted · Edited by kingzoso
I have read a lot of times that the members of Black Sabbath listened to and loved Led Zeppelin's first album. When it came time to finish Black Sabbath's second album, Paranoid, they needed one more song to finish the album so they wrote and recorded the song "Paranoid" and fashioned it on Led Zeppelin's song, "Communication Breakdown". If you listen to both songs truly, there is a very uncanny resemblance to "Paranoid" sounding very similar to "Communication Breakdown" as both songs are similar in structure and riffs, only the lyrics ate different. To me, that means that Led Zeppelin were very tangible and definitely an influence on Black Sabbath. I would guess to say that Tony Iommi would proudly say that Jimmy Page was a big influence of his even though they are roughly the same age.
I Love Tony Iommi, but I LOVE JIMMY PAGE WAY MORE THAN ANY OTHER HUMAN BEING ON THIS PLANET EARTH!!!
