  1. We must have all been superstitious and skipped 13 (or blindsided by a global pandemic 😢). Happy 14th! Wore the t-shirt, watched the DVD, slipped back into happier times and reflected on how lucky I had been.
  2. Happy 12th Ahmet Tribute / Celebration Day! Crikey, that's 1/5 of my life ago 😲 - where did that go? Watching again 😁
  3. Happy 11 years gone everybody! Time sure flies. As is my custom, I watched the Celebration Day DVD last night. (I know there's been a thread in the Master Forum for the last couple of months about the relative merits of the concert but I'm just reminiscing on it's anniversary)
  4. Cheers luvlz2 One week til I see them in Sydney!
  5. Got me (But I believe he's playing Hammersmith with BCC at I type )

  7. Bugger! No word yet from Ticketmaster, even though it seems it was announced 2 days ago. Actually not holding my breath - he was to tour here in 2012 (and I had a ticket then too) and it was cancelled without rescheduling "due to unforseen circumstances". Leaves me just with the Foo Fighters that weekend... I'll live
  8. Nah, not having a go Xolo1974. That's the beauty of opinions - everyone's is different and valid. I had determined that those prices are acceptable to me (my point) - I can't make that decision for anybody else. The "sad" comment was referring to on principle you wouldn't pay that much for a such a show, now matter how good it might be. The $45 tribute band I expect was a great night. I've seen such bands too but I'm expecting that the JBLZE production (and staging costs, no doubt) will be at another level - I'll let you know in 5 weeks.
  9. Dear mods Just wondering why it was thought better to move this thread to 'News', which it really isn't?
  10. Kind of sad. Really what anybody would pay indicates the value of that experience to them. You previously thought this was "value". That's a pub tribute band with no "connection"! There is an Australian set-up, CCEntertainment, which does an annual 'Led Zeppelin Celebration' called 'Whole Lotta Love' - 4 alternating vocalists, 9 piece band, generally filling smaller theatres. Don't try to act as Led Zeppelin. Musically superb. I think last time I saw them it was about $70AUD. Easily worth double that. I'm not anti pubs. Amongst the best shows I saw this year were free in pubs or $15-20AUD in small rooms. I also paid the most I ever have for a concert ticket (last week in a 12000 seat arena). $406AUD for a pommy bass player playing tunes from his earlier bands - and well and truly got my money's worth. I'd have to dig back to Queen in 1976 or the O2 Arena 10/12/2007 show (which to attend, cost me nearly 10x the amount last week) for a show which I'd say might have been"better". Needless to say, I'm looking forward to JBLZE in Sydney, am OK with the price and don't care whose not there!
  11. As you also said on the Australian fans page... If he's getting this sort of message from his homeland, why would he bother?
  12. Happy 10th anniversary Ahmet Tribute! (I've waited and waited... it's now 2pm here but the rest of the world's coming around. And I do know it's still 15 hours or so til the time!) I've Celebration Day-ed by having it on in the car at midnight, coming home from a show, watching the DVD and wearing my t-shirt playing guitar in the band at church this morning
  13. Hey weird, I had this too just now! With the Django start from LFNIP version. Seeing Joe in Sydney in 3 weeks. Other than that I've been stuck on Celebration Day for 2 days Anybody notice that that song (as well as not being played in the O2 concert) doesn't appear anywhere on the 2003 DVD?
  14. Beat me to it Reggie. Bummer. And the Chilean dates... http://www.jblze.com/index.php?page=Tour
  15. Tomorrow night - The Delta Riggs. Don't you love it when you can still jump up and down in a sweaty pub and see exciting new stuff (for $12!) This'll be my 3rd time for these guys who I first saw as a support 4 months ago, and who most in Australia wouldn't have noticed yet... Have a look A bizzare videoclip A festival performance last year
  16. Well... expecting a similar announcement eventially for Sydney now i'd expect they'd be doing Oz in one go only At least Fortuna, your info from Challenge gives a timeframe of when reschedule might be. JBLZE website does still list all 3 on - hey maybe management didn't factor, in booking 3 consecutive nights, how far it is to Perth And damn. I was hoping Jason might be tied up around Nov with a few dates with BCC supporting their 3rd album's release in Oct (just somewhere - anywhere in the world - I'd go!) Edit - that's not going to happen. Joe's got 17 North American dates throughout November - after he's been here
  17. Worrying. (So far) still showing on Enmore Theatre site for Sydney and Ticketek still selling...
  18. Hopefully not due to lack of interest Ticketek website still offers me for Sydney show 'Front' for standing and mid-3rd row back dress circle...
  19. Confirmed. Sydney http://www.enmoretheatre.com.au/events/2012/09/13/jason-bonhams-led-zeppelin-experience Also Melbourne and Perth, I believe.
  20. Didn't know if anybody would know her (I guess not after 4 pages) but IMHO this is the definitive rock chick: Suze DeMarchi - try this tune you probably don't know. Watch how she builds it. Also happens to be Nuno Bettencourt's wife. Saw her do some shows last month. She's still dead sexy 15 years on and just gets better with age - and the band in the early days used to do a magnificent cover of Ramble On.
