Welcome to the forum. You gentlemen are great!! Will you be in the states anytime?

It still amazes me how many bands respect Led Zeppelin and I must say you have done your duty in regards to LZ music. I am not one to easily be pleased by bands that try to sound like The Mighty Zeppelin, but I would love to see you if you are ever in the US.

If your singer didn't have such a strong Italian accent he would sound a lot like Robert Plant!

Nice job!

Hello, Deborah,

thank you for making us feel welcome. Your words really boost us. We are going to know if we'll come to the States until april. We are planning a northern Europe tour for summer 2010, but it's still possible that we receive some good proposals for the U.S.

We have simply grown up feeling the legend of Led Zeppelin since we were boys, and this is probably more than respect...

We will certainly inform you if we'll come to the States

Thank You, bye

Hello Stargroves Tangie, a lot of thanks for your words... we are going to upload "Moby dick" (probably this week), "Since I've been loving you", "I can't quit you" and something else, as we syncronize audio, video and photos. This forum is fantastic

Sorry if we post it again, but we have realized (perhaps) how to embed the videoclips directly into the discussion window, making it easier to see

Hello, DD

thank you for your welcome. This one is undoubtely the most important and skilled forum of the world about Led Zeppelin, and it's a big honour to us to be appreciated by such a community. Germany is certainly into our plans, even if, right in this days, we had a good proposal for a series of summer dates in England, and we're going to make an agreement. In any case we will know our spring-summer plans until april, and of course we will post them.

our Best Regards

Hello DD,

thank you for your appreciation, here is a small translation of our description

FlowerStone project involves five professional musicians who have decided to share a deep and detailed research on the atmospheres and sounds created by Led Zeppelin. The intense interpretation, the extreme attention to executive detail, a deep knowledge of the repertoire and the use of "vintage" instruments make the FlowerStone show the closest experience to a Led Zeppelin show in the early '70s.

Instruments, most of which were built between the '60s and '70s, are basically identical to the originals used by Led Zeppelin, even in some changes to electronics, guitars and amplifiers made by technicians who have the highest level international collaborations.

The influence of Led Zeppelin on contemporary music is immense, and the inexhaustible creativity. The project stems from the need to preserve and disseminate a certain way of making music: the great variety of styles and compositions of the consuming energy of Led Zeppelin on stage must be re-expressed in live concerts.

This needs careful philological research and a study on "scores", defined as actual pages of history of music written by the legendary band in London.

No coincidence that the five individual FlowerStone had already played Led Zeppelin songs in various bands, but only with the artistic and personal maturity they have acquired the dramatic pathos and depth required to interpret a repertoire with so rich hues.

"FlowerStone performs Led Zeppelin" was presented for the first time in Italy in summer 2009 with dates of some considerable success, and the band is currently organizing a tour in northern Europe.

Hello All!

Massimo just emailed me and they (FlowerStone) cannnot get to London due to the Volcano eruption. They had to update this version of STH and here it is.

Let's wish our fellow forum members the best and hope they get to meet with all the people they are scheduled to meet with and work out their European tour! Then hopefully, we eventually get to see them here in the US!
