I recently uploaded a few new photos from Seattle 1977 courtesy of Roland Morgan. Here's a new batch of great pics, including fans pre-show in the parking lot...

These are amazing. Props to these fans for spelling Led Zeppelin correctly. There always seemed to be a high percentage of fan-made signs spelled incorrectly.

The buzz. The anticipation. The energy and patience needed for waiting and waiting. I would not have it any other way. The rituals of going to concerts in the 1970s is far better than what it is today.

Yea , freezing all nite , standin out there-a blanket over ya heads often soaked ,sharing umbrellas , shivering , did it in the early 80’s . First time possibly was for the FIRM i believe.  was crazey , cause suddenly everyone stood up , eventually couple doors popped open.Found myself & a buddy RUNNING AS fast as we could in race inside a  mall?  To stand in another line with 50 peope ALREADY in line 😳!

best I could get was nosebleed seats !

I remember total of 7 of us at the concert & think it was the first Zep song in the set The OCEAN , i  barely 16? looked around during the LA LA  LALALA part  & noticed several older guys & girls were huggin & cryin.... hearing  i think our 1st LIVE performance of a Zep tune since or EVER   since Bonzo’s & Zeppelins death/demise! the lighters were out ,my eyes 👀 welled up too my buddy caught my eye & he looked away ,most everyone was hugging , older hippi guy infront of me turned around crying  & hugged me too!

We were amongst several others who UNDERSTOOD the gravity of the moment ! Thank you Jimmy Page waaay down there  on stage for comming to town & moving us so deeply......😢! Zep ment a lot everyone !  

A moment in time......😔
