Song By Song!

I'm just hoping the report that it was filmed for a DVD release is accurate.

Might turn out to be the best Zepp show ever, even at their age. :rolleyes:

Well there's a good chance there'll be some snippets on you tube taken from mobile phones etc. Then it's just a case of hanging on for a DVD.

Brilliant set list....Thank You so much for keeping posting all this...though how you managed it is beyond me as it has taken me all night to get on the boards without them crashing!

Saw a little of Black Dog on the News....must have been the press release piece as BBC 1 & 2 and ITV all had exactly the same clip. Whole thing looked awesome bet those there had an fantastic night.

Led Zeppelin reunion: live setlist here

Follow the legends' reunion online as it happens

59 minutes ago

Led Zeppelin have taken to the stage at the O2 Arena in London tonight (December 10) - and NME.COM will be bringing you the action as it happens.

Currently we're experiencing one of technical issues with our live blog, but we don't intend to let that stop us, so we're going to post up the set and the comments from our journalist in the hall in this news story while we get things fixed.

So while it is a bit basic, if you just refresh this news story every few minutes you'll have the action from the Ahmet Ertegun tribute show.

So far Led Zeppelin have played:

'Good Times Bad Times'

"The set started with a clip from 'The Song Remains The Same' DVD with an American news clip telling of they broke The Beatles' attendance record for a gig in 1973 in California. Simple stage set, video screen behind the band."

'Ramble On'

"'Ramble On' done in extremely slow, bluesy manner, with shards of electric guitar from Jimmy Page."

'Black Dog'

"Page wearing dark shades, quite muddy sound. Crowd singing the 'ah-ah' bits back at Plant."

'In My Time Of Dying'

"Page is playing bottleneck guitar. Plant spoke for the first time before song, saying 'Good evening'."

'For Your Life'

"That's not something you get to hear often these days, Led Zeppelin giving a song its live debut."

'Trampled Under Foot'

"Before starting Plant told the crowd it was the band's attempt to sound like Robert Johnson's 'Terraplane Blues'."

'Nobody's Fault But Mine'

"There are huge screen's dominating the O2 Arena, they split into four sometimes, goes monochrome, colour etc...quite spectacular."

'No Quarter'

"Following the song Plant paid tribute to John Paul Jones, who played keyboards and bass on the track."

'Since I've Been Loving You'

"A bit of a style guide for you, all the band are dressed in black bar Page who is rocking a white shirt. As for the song they gone for the epic version....very bluesy."

'Dazed And Confused'

"Settle yourselves in, we're expecting a ten minute version of this classic... it was. At the end of it of the song Plant told the audience 'On guitar Jimmy Page, just as he did on 'The Song Remains The Same' DVD which was filmed in Madison Square Garden in the 70s."

'Stairway To Heaven'

"What do you think happened? Right! From the moment those opening notes rang out the whole audience went absolutely crazy. The atmosphere is electric. Afterwards Plant said "Ahmet, we did it!"

'The Song Remains The Same'

"A fairly straight version of the classic. The sound is still a bit muddy and quiet though."

'Misty Mountain Hop'

"Plant kicked this one off by praising the job drummer Jason Bonham has been doing, stepping into his late father's shoes tonight."

'Kashmir'

"Yet another epic, as this song cracks the ten minute mark. Plant introduced this one declaring 'We've got people from 50 countries here and this is the 51st'. Afterwards they left the stage to loud applause. Will they do an encore? What do you reckon..."

'Whole Lotta Love'

"... of course they come back to deafening applause. And it's an extended version of the old 'Top Of The Pops' theme. Then once more the band leave the stage with a visibly emotional Plant declaring:

'Thanks to everybody. Thanks Ahmet Ertegun, this one for is Ahmet Ertegun as we remember the days when Atlantic Records was the best label on the planet!'."

'Rock And Roll'

"Just time for one more, as after two hours the night reaches its climax, and what a stomper to go out on. And after the hype, the millions of people who entered the ticket ballot and the speculation, Led Zeppelin's reunion show is over. A one off? We dearly hope not."

Just got home. Thanks to the lucky ones who kept us in the loop.

I'm having a little Zeppelin party to celebrate. Have my Zeppelin Starship poster and Jimmy page action figure. TSRTS CD and DVD are blasting. I just unwrapped the deluxe edition T to commemorate the event! It's over there now but the party is just starting here.

God bless Led Zeppelin!

That review doesnt even start to cover the event!

it seems very minimalistic, and to be honest, its a terrible review thats biased at looking for faults.

It wasn't a review it was a live blog that went out during the show......just meant to be a play-by-play description
