Sunray782 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'm not saying it isn't a possiblilty. I've heard some things. But I wouldn't consider this a sign. The Cadillac campaign using Rock and Roll didn't mean a tour. Well circumstances are different now than they were back when the Cadillac commercial was out. Still keeping my fingers, toes, arms and legs crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evster2012 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Well circumstances are different now than they were back when the Cadillac commercial was out. Still keeping my fingers, toes, arms and legs crossed! Certainly they are! Times and circumstances change. As I said elsewhere, the commercial touting the band as the "greatest" gives me immense satisfaction. We've known it all along. Bout time the media realized what they'd been missing!

Pretty funny, that. Since they were slogged by the media through most of their career! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soccerzubs Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I figured it out, the Taxi Driver is also playing Led Zeppelin in his cab. Do you think the guy's hairstyle has anything to do with the band, sort of reminds me of Jimmy at one point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheet the damned thing is an AD. Now hopefully someone that Tivo'd it will start posting it anywhere and everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel With A Broken Wing Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 That thing got me reminissing about the 70s. The girl with the symbols instantly reminded me of a cool chick that I met and knew for a day or so but she had her tatoos strategically placed elsewhere -- my god, I do miss the free and easy 70s! It was a different World back then, sex couldn't become a death sentence like today. I also related a lot to the kid almost getting run over because that happened to me so many times when I was going to and from the Open School in downtown St. Paul. Stoned out of my mind listening to LZ full blast on my Walkman, I must have nearly got nailed, well I don't know but a lot of times. I think I may have burned too many brain cells back in the 70s because the only thing I really caught was how irritating it was that the camera man and the kid were both looking into the sun just as RP was singing "O let the sun beat down upon my face" but then a minute or two later I realised what had happened, some of that fancy newfangled sublimo text messaging like when you play stuff backwards. After re-watching the clip it is no big surprise that his telephone/walkman thingy's screen reads: "Led Zeppelin" "Kashmir" You're funny. I must have burned too many brain cells also because I couldn't see all of those things even with pausing it every second. And I thought the phone said "Heartbreaker" so I can't even read, lol.

But it is indeed available on your link (which is the original link on this here thread). Guess I'm another punter that burned too many brain cells in the '70s..... THANKS for re-posting!!!
