nirvana Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Does anyone have any OFFICIAL info as to the rumoured curfew at the O2 as being at 11:00pm? What if Zep finishes at 10:45pm and wants to do encores until 11:10pm...what will happen? Will the O2 Management announce to 20,000 frenzied fans that "No, Led Zepplein CANNOT do 1 more song due to our Curfew of 11:00pm, thank you -goodnight. Drive safely." The place will go insane...Tampa Bay '77 anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzfan715 Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 They can't cut Zeppelin off. Someone will say something. Maybe Robert will tell them to leave Zep alone and they intend to one more song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aen27 Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I wonder what Peter Grant would say if he were alive about a curfew for Zep?! I can only think of the funny way he got them on at Bath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJD Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Many arena/theater type venues have the 11 o'clock curfew because they have to pay stiff union penalties for every minute over 11:00 they play. Even non-union venues have late penalties. I have no idea what the ubion scenen for that type of stuff is over teh pond but I'm sure it's pretty similar. I'm sure for an all night/day event such as this they have planned in the budget for a little spill over time and placed the set times appropriately. When people say a band can't play past 11:00 that isn't necessarily true. They can but it will cost them a fortune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
