Ahh yes the secret 1978 gigs....

It would have been 1977, but as it was 30 years ago you are forgiven.

Thanks for sharing, great memories.

Thanks for the memory refresher

are you serious? these things never happen to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....

Nice of him to do that! any pics of the concert to show us??

We were taking pictures with my friends camera and he never told us it was broke so all the pictures got exposed by a light leak. I also remember that Mr. Weiss use to have a rolls royce and the license plate said 'SWAN SONG" on it.

I got to meet Steve Weiss when i was a bus boy at my first job. I was 15 y/o in 1973 and worked at Muttontown Country Club on Long Island New York. One time he gave me 2 of his personel seats when Zeppelin did the 5 nights at Madison Square Garden in 1978(6th row in front of Page and Plant)

I never forgot him for doing that .He wrote a note on a bar check and said to go to 454 Madison Ave.(Swan Song Records) and show the people there the note and there will be 2 tickets waiting for you.Unbelievable!!!!!!Best show ever.He was a nice guy and as i remember had a nice Family. Sorry to hear he passed away and send my condolences to his family.

[how many of you actually saw zepp in concert and when{pre 1980 only}]

Saw them on the 75 tour on long island and the 77 tour at madison square garden 2x. I got to know the lawyer for them and he gave me 2 of his personel seats at madison square garden for the last night of the tour.They were playing at the garden for 5 nights and i already saw them on the first night. He told to go pick up the tickets at swan song records at 454 madison ave. when one of the people who worked there handed me the 2 tickets his response was "people would kill for these tickets" i looked at them and we were 6th row in front of page and plant. i have been going to concerts since 1973 and that is still the best show i ever went to. It was just amazing and i will never experience anything like that again.the only bad thing was that someone threw a firecracker towards the stage and hit page in the hand and the band was pissed off.pages hand was hurt and they came out and did a quick encore and left. i found out latter that mick jagger and keith richards were going to come out and jam with them if that person didn't throw that firecracker.
