  1. This is some funny shit. The violin solo on the Flying V. The rest of the solo is pretty good. I would have to assume that Rob Reiner and the "members" of Spinal Tap are actual fans of Led Zeppelin.
  2. I think that there will be a few more killings on the part of Walter and on the part of His enemies (against Walter), whoever they may be. Although I obviously do not know, I think that Lydia is a person that Walter would like to "eliminate". Lydia said that there are a lot of moving parts and that Walter was putting her "in a box". I think that Lydia has some powerful connections through her job. She is a straight up uptight woman, however, she also seems to be a very calculated businesswoman. I think that she brings things to a very bad outcome and is paid with it with her life. Obviously, something major happens to the White "domicile". The opening scene was a flash forward to whatever "bad" things are to come. And remember that the tag line for this final season is, "All Bad Things Must Come to an End"....
  3. My whole "over-the-top hyperbole" is to get any newcomers to watch this Great Show. (By the way, my hyperbole/exaggeration is not hyperbole/exaggeration at all). It is an opinion, and my Opinion and the Millions of Others that feel the exact same way I feel about this is hard to deny or dispute. "Breaking Bad" will go down in Television History as one of the top 5 Shows of All-Time. I am a loyal fan and not a critic. Even the real critics (in America) say that this is one of the Greatest Series/Shows Ever. I believe that History will Prove Me Right. By the way, your picture and quotes are from a woman who has been dead for over 20 years. Audrey Hepburn is not even really relevant to the thousands of Led Zeppelin fans who are/or post replies to this Awesome Forum. Ask any Led Zeppelin fan to name any movie that she has been in. Name the movie (besides you). I seriously doubt that Anyone could name any one of her movies. I could be wrong but I really do not think that any new Led Zeppelin fan(s) could give a Shit about some actress that they have never seen in a movie or even of one that died way back in 1993. You are in love with or infatuated with a person who has been Dead for over 20 Years. Regardless of your retort, It makes no difference to me. Say what disparaging remarks you want to say about Me (which I know are coming. You seem to never hesitate to change anyones words around just to make your relevant in order to save face). I am Man Enough to withstand the slaughter. LONG LIVE WALTER WHITE!!!
  4. Does anyone really know the extent of the "note" or "letter" that Manson family member, Squeaky Fromme, wrote to Jimmy Page before a Led Zeppelin concert in Los Angeles? She asked to speak directly to Jimmy at the hotel, but was told that He was unavailable and was told to write down what she intended to say to him. From what I have read, the "letter" was thrown out before she even left the building. Edited to add: Squeaky Fromme was a known killer by the time she tried to meet Mr. Page. After Charlie Manson went to prison (once on Death Row, later to be commuted to Life in Prison), Lynette Fromme attempted to assassinate President Gerald Ford.
  5. Another Great Live Video Bootleg of a show from the second Greatest Live Band of All-Time!!! RUSH may not do much improvisation to their songs, but They sure do put on one of the Best Concerts Ever!!! This is a Testament to that.
  6. For those that Love good, complex and compelling television, the final 8 episodes of Breaking Bad begins in less than 48 hours on the AMC channel here in the Great United States of America.
  7. Thanks! I will. This will be my second time seeing JBLZE (I had 3rd row seats the first time) and this will be my first time seeing Heart.
  8. I have a couple question that I hope will be answered by anyone who has already seen the Jason Bonham/Heart concert. I am going to see this concert next Thursday (8/15/2013) in Dallas. The start time on my ticket says 7:30pm. My questions are: (1). Does this show start right around that time? (2). Is there any opening band that plays before Jason Bonham starts? Or is it just strictly Jason Bonham and Heart? (3). Lastly, what is the approximate time of the whole show? Roughly 2 - 3 hours? Anyone information that anyone can provide me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any answers.
  9. In my humble opinion, after Tony Soprano, Walter White is the baddest Motherfucking character in the history of Television!!! Jimmy Gandolfini (Rest in Peace) and Bryan Cranston have transformed the stereotype of the "anti-hero" and made them classic and iconic figures in American history that will live on for generations to come. Just like Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and John Bonham have done for Classic Rock and Roll Music. If you do not agree or do not know that much about Walter White (or "Breaking Bad"), this should be a very motivating clip to get anyone not familiar with this Great and Awesome show to possibly get addicted to the show. It could be as addicting as the Blue Meth. The choice is Yours. Edited to add: There are many spoilers in this 4 minute clip and 8 minute video . If you are new to BR BA and have not seen the entire run, I would advise you to not watch this.
  10. Breaking Bad is coming back with a Vengeance in less than 10 days from now. For all of US fans that have invested Our time and interest in this awesome and amazing show, I just want to say that WE are all in for a ride of our life. WHATEVER HAPPENS to any of the main characters (and that means WHATEVER), I will always say and Respect Walter White and Jesse Pinkman and the whole cast and crew. As the Tag says, "ALL BAD THINGS MUST COME TO AN END". Just what that the really means, we will all find out in the next two months.
  11. I completely agree with you on this. When Led Zeppelin play(ed) their long sets and solos, it was a showcase to show their respective talents. Sure a lot of people would accuse them of being self-indulgent and whatever else, however, I like to see or hear the virtuosity and improvisation of Jimmy, Jonesy and Bonzo and between Jimmy, Jonesy and Bonzo. Rush, on the other hand, do pretty much stick to their original composition of their songs when playing live. With that format by Rush, it enables the audience to see or hear more of their songs (and I like that about Rush). In a 2-3 hour show, Rush can play up to 25 or 30 different songs. Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart are also some of the most-talented musicians on the planet. (My opinion of course).
  12. This topic is really for those of us who listen to a lot of bootlegs. Bootlegs by any of your favorite bands. As I have stated in the past, I listen to a lot of Led Zeppelin bootlegs. All that I own and more that I have listened to on YouTube. There is a lot of great LZ bootlegs on YouTube. I have also started to listen to a lot of Rush bootlegs that are also out there via the same medium. My question is: when listening to full live bootlegs by your favorite bands, do you prefer to hear the songs as they are pretty much played note for note (like they are on the album/cd), or would you prefer some improvisation or any slight difference to the songs? My point is: Led Zeppelin were and are the Masters of Improvisation when it comes to almost all the songs They ever played live in front of an eager audience. For an easy example, "Dazed and Confused", studio version 6.27 in length. I have heard the same "Dazed and Confused" from a bootleg from Los Angeles that almost reaches the 45+ minute mark. If you prefer precision over improv, that means that LZ could have possibly played at least 7 more of Their songs if They did stick to the almost note for note formula that we hear on the albums/cds. Any comments on which you prefer?
  13. I watched that 8 minute clip of Ginger Baker and I realized that I wasted 8 minutes of my time. I do like Cream but I will admit that Ginger Baker seems "so out of touch with reality" that is was very hard to watch. I could care less about what he thinks about "Bonzo" or "Moonie". I hate to say this but I think that Ginger Baker is so "fried" and out his mind (and his money) that his legacy will be more about his negative and ignorant comments about his contemporaries that he so likes to disparage. Although John Bonham passed away in 1980, John Henry Bonham will always be given and equated as the Greatest Rock and Roll Drummer of All-Time. I think that this accolade of Mr. Bonham (from millions of Led Zeppelin Fans from around the World) does not sit well with Mr. Baker. I think that envy and jealousy can make someone very bitter and ...
  14. BACKSTAGE WITH JIMMY PAGE Although Lifeson cites many influences on his playing, the hugest is, without a doubt, Jimmy Page. Here Lifeson talks about meeting the guy who once called Rush "One of the young bands that I like." "I saw Led Zeppelin in Toronto in 1969 after waiting in line for 15 hours. We sat on the floor in front of Jimmy about three people back. I was so impressed. I wanted to look like him, and play like him, and be just like him. If there was any single person I ever wanted to meet, it was him, but I never thought I would have the opportunity. "Well, Geddy met Robert Plant in Morocco a few years ago, and Robert invited us to the Page/Plant show in Toronto. When we went backstage, Jimmy came into the room, and I started shaking. I was that excited. He was so sweet, and so charming, and engaging. It was incredible. I brought a copy of my record, Victor, and I built up the nerve to give it to him. I had written in it that he was such an inspiration, and that his influence was all over the record. I said, 'I hope you don't mind, but this is my solo record and I'd like you to have it.' He stood up and gave me a hug and thanked me. We walked down to the stage with them, and they had set up a couple of chairs for us by the [monitor mixing] board. Jimmy kept looking over and smiling at me when he would play these great signature parts. He played so well. Just incredible. I was like a kid. I can picture the dressing room, with Robert sitting across from me, and Jimmy sitting to my left asking me questions. I can take myself right back there, and it just feels great. You meet your hero, and he's a hero! He was everything I hoped he would be. I'll never ever forget that."
  15. You are absolutely correct. Credit is most certainly due to mrjonesy2112. So I tip my hat to him and thank him for all the live Rush bootlegs that he has uploaded to YouTube (all them certainly pristine in quality, for a bootleg). I would also like to think and say that mrjonesy2112 must be a Led Zeppelin fan as well. Either that, or this persons last name also happens to be Jones (or Baldwin). Again, I urge other fellow Rush fans that are on this Great Led Zeppelin Forum, check out and listen to the dozens of great bootlegs that mrjonesy2112 has provided. You will not be disappointed.
  16. RUSH is my second favorite Band of All-Time. I have seen Them only about 5 times beginning in 1986. I fell out of them (a little) during the 1990's and 2000's when most of Rush's songs took on a much more synthesizer approach to Their Music and the more mellowness of the majority of their output (of course they always had a couple of rockers on all their albums). Not to say that was a bad thing, but I always Loved Rush as a hard-rocking trio. From Rush to Grace Under Pressure, these are definitely my favorites. I do own all of Their complete CD discography. I have come to understand and appreciate the Rush albums that I once shunned. Having said that, I believe that RUSH is one of the Greatest Bands ever and I know that I am not the only One to think or say this. How anyone can deny that this is a truly Epic Masterpiece: http://youtu.be/WpENyx-qty4
  17. I agree with you completely. Dennis Farina was a great actor. I think His best role was in Midnight Run (with Bobby De Niro). His Chicago/Las Vegas mobster as Jimmy Serrano was great. He played an no nonsense and Ruthless MotherFucker. I am sad to learn of his Passing.
  18. Thanks to luvlz2, I have discovered a plethora of live, full bootlegs of the great and Mighty RUSH on YouTube. Most of them are great sounding bootlegs with a lot over 2+ hours in duration. If you are a fan of Rush I urge you to seek them out. Here is one example of what I mean: Just click on the top. RUSH - ECHOES ON THE STAGES and you will be directed to the YouTube site. You will see what I mean on the right hand of the screen. All these great Rush concerts to listen to. I hope you enjoy!!!
  19. If you are true fan and know the History of this Great show, what do you think will happen. Just curious as to your thoughts?
  20. Only three weeks remaining until "All BAD things must come to an end". From what I have read from the creator of "Breaking Bad", Vince Gilligan, the millions of people that Love this show are in for a fast and furious ride of a lifetime. Can't wait.
  21. I do not to mean to interrupt the "symbols" mystery, however, I would like to ask this question? Is there any mention of any of the members of Led Zeppelin ever meeting or interacting with the members of the Spinners? I ask this because both Led Zeppelin and the Spinners were under the umbrella of Atlantic Records during the 1970's. Same record company under the supervision and ownership of Ahmet Ertugen and Jerry Wexler. I realize that Led Zeppelin and the Spinners are completely different styles of Music. Regardless, different styles of different kinds of Music does not mean that one is better than the other. I Love the Spinners Music and I hope that these Spinner songs may turn on others fans of Led Zeppelin that may not be aware of these Great Songs.
  22. I just finished listening to this. This has to be one of the greatest live versions of "Whole Lotta Love" that I have ever heard:
  23. I read somewhere once a long time ago that George Lucas named the planet Hoth after the initials of Houses of the Holy. Hoth is the frozen planet that the rebel alliance used as a base at the beginning of the Empire Strikes Back. Anyone ever read or heard this?
