JimmyOutrider Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 I was listening to Celebration Day the other day, and I noticed that when they played Black Dog, my favourite track, there was no intro. It's always been Out On The Tiles (apart from when it was changed to Bring It On Home for The Song Remains The Same). Anyone know why it wasn't played?

timothy5151 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I think they wanted make the songs sound closer to the album versions and mostly stay away from long solos and jams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those jams weren't in the membrane after 27 years gone. Would of been impossible. Especially without Bonzo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryder1978 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I was also told that there was a noise curfew at the O2 and that the set had to be abbreviated to accommodate that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was probably a noise curfew on the band's ears so that wouldn't of been a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecongo Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 The real answer since no one here has a clue is that they constructed a NEW intro. listen to the end of Ramble On. They pasted the end of What is and What Should Never Be to it then ended it on the first chord of Black Dog. Pretty darn clever and well thought out I'd say.

Boleskinner Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 A lot of people rave about BD from the O2 gig, but for me it was too slow, the lower key sucked the life out of it, and let's face it, only John Bonham can play that song properly and make it swing.

SamoKodela Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I like the approach in Jimmy's solo, some of the licks quite simplified but still exciting and energetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had not ever noticed that or I didn't remember. I went back and listened. Very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
