TelecasterShaggy Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 hello my name is Kyle and Im 19 years old and a complete classic rock junkie for lack of better term. I love Led Zeppelin and I wish I could have seen them live, and I hopefully will if they tour again but you know how that goes. But anyway what blew my mind was what I just realized. I was born in 1989 and "Stairway To Heaven" came out in 1971. One thing that brings so much joy to my life is being able to completly play Stairway to Heaven on guitar. Well in 2071 I will be 82 years old. If i do live that long and still able to move my old fingers around on the fretboard I could play Stairway To Heaven...A 100 YEAR OLD SONG at that point!!!! To me that is just crazy to think about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjolnir Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 That is rather mind blowing. Just think, their debut album will be 40 yrs old next year!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheZeppyWanderer Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Time ...... where does it go ? Waits for no man, creeps up on you like a cat, and passes you by like a warm summers day. Speaking of anniversaries - wasn't it on May 5th when the Hindenburg LZ129 went down .. ? If so, lets spare athought or two on Monday, eh ?

lucyinthesky Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Hey Telecastershaggy! I've got a great idea. The younger generation (i'm 15) will stay in the forum until 2071 and then play Stairway unisono and as loud as our Marshalls can do it !!! ...In case we can hold a guitar then! PS Sorry for my English, i'm kinda tired... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles_Obscure Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 (edited) I'll be 86 years old and probably dead, in a legendary manner. So, please someone, make a guitar out of my remaining bones and play a rendition of Stairway on me!

lucyinthesky Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I'll play Stairway even if I'm dead by then, though i hope I'll live longer than 79 years Just burry me together with my guitar, please... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lzfan715 Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 That si ttally crazy for me to think about. I'm 14, and I don't think as Zep's music as 40 years old. For me, it's just like listening to music today. Well, let me rephrase that, I don't think about the time gap. Their music is better than today's.

I'll be really good by then not that I'm bad now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
