toleressea Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 More Zeppelin the better but I dont like when they cut off Kashmir and the dude takes the call. He should have the song play in one ear and take the call in the other. If Zep comes on the radio when I am pulling into my garage I dont get out of the car till its done. Yes my wife thinks I am stange! Thanks for the link! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have the song play in one ear and take the call in the other. Perhaps because that wouldn't work so well in relity? I think it's great! People will inevitably cry "sellout" like they did with the Cadillac ads, but I personally love that the relevance of Zeppelin can no longer be ignored by the mainstream media.

Bilbo the Rover Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I saw an add in Rolling Stone for the Zep \ Verizon thing back in October, let's just say I have three new Verizon phones now and leave it at that...BUT ONLY because I get a discount through my employer ! ( the thing that sunk the deal was a huge Zep poster in the Verizon store.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Robert said when he was questioned about why he did the Coke commercial in the 80s, it was about trying to reach a broader audience. I've discovered a few artists by hearing their songs in commercials. As an aside, soooooooo great to see you here Ev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebeez Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 i love the little details in the background like the 4 symbols on the woman's back: there's also a Gibson double neck in the shop window: It would have been fun to make this commerical.

MistressTyreah Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 is verizon sponsoring the tour?It is Official Led Zeppelin Ring Tones.. that is what the ad is about.... But if there is a tour verizon will undoubtedly be one of perhaps many sponsors... And I just know it in my soul that they will play again.... soon... That is why the music stops when he answers.. Kashmir is the dewd's ringtone,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
