  1. WRONG ! !

    I don't know what calendar you are using, zep maniack, but the CBS Television broadcast is Wednesday, December 26th for 2 hours, 9pm-11pm EST.

    Just a minor thing, but when a Zep Event is announced, the particulars are important.

    That said, with CBS also broadcasting the Grammy's, and that they are already advertising Dave Grohl as a headlining performer, I would assume, that for marketing tie-in purposes and synergy, that the Dave Grohl set from the Kennedy Center Honors will make it in, and some other worthy Zeppelin tribute performance will be cut instead.

    What's best foir CBS, after all...

    You are correct im sorry it is wednesday I will update it sorry kept thinking today was monday lol
  2. Just a reminder to everybody Kennedy center honors Wed december 26 it's been a few weeks since the taping and I almost forgot about the show on CBS here in the states it starts 9pm here on the east coast.

  3. To the best of my knowledge, Jimmy Page wore what were known as dragon suits starting from at least 1973 (earlier maybe?) to the end of his reign as rock's most prominent guitarist in 1980. These suits were embroidered, elaborate, and downright awesome. Also, they'd surely catch a hefty sum if auctioned today. This is all I really know for sure about them.

    Who made the dragon suits? Were they custom made for Page (as I've always assumed), did he just buy them, or were they perhaps a gift of some sorts? How many were there? And lastly what happened to them?

    I've only found two sources on the web that have helped even in the least. The first was a radio interview with Page which I found on Youtube (here:

    ) where he mentions that a dragon suit was on loan in Cleveland (this interview was conducted around the time Walking into Clarksdale was released, which makes it around 1998). The second I found after searching for "Led Zeppelin wardrobe" on Google (http://rockpopfashion.com/blog/?p=41). This mentioned that Page was friends with Paul Reeves, a fashion designer who co-owned a fashion label called Sam Pig in Love, yet further searching left me with no indication that Reeves had been involved with the dragon suits.

    Does anybody have answers?
