kashmiran Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Anything I would give up anything for that concert. Well, I woudn't say quite anything... I'd give up a lot though. Any number of things. Luckily, I have the memories of my father to hang on to. He went to the July 29th show at MSG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxie Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Seeing them at MSG would've been amazing for sure... but I think if i had a preference it would've been the Earl's Court shows..... all 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwizard03 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Attended all three nights and it did not cost Me anything.My Uncle got all three tickets and took Me.Yes He was the Man.Stubs are posted on the Main site and in the Post your ticket stubs thread. He died of Cancer a few years ago and I was at His side there was never a better Man nor Will there ever be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IluvJimmyPage Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 ^alwizard03 that is such a sweet and wonderful thing to say about your uncle I definitely wanted to go in '73 but was not allowed to go until the '77 tour (my parents were very strict back then ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadScreamingGallery Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I was 14, not 20, and like Alwizard, I was at all 3 MSG concerts. Unlike Alwizard, however, my tickets cost me. It's an interesting question because I just told someone earlier today that occasionally one of my friends who was with me at those concerts will say to me: "MSG, what would you give to be back there for one more night?" or "MSG, I wish I had a time machine so we could spend one more night back there." I wouldn't give anything to go back again (certainly not my husband or my children or the wonderful life I've had since then) but I am happy to have my memories of those experiences.

Alwizard, I agree with "IluvJimmyPage", it was so touching to read what you wrote about your uncle. ^alwizard03 that is such a sweet and wonderful thing to say about your uncle I definitely wanted to go in '73 but was not allowed to go until the '77 tour (my parents were very strict back then ) I wasn't allowed to go either but that didn't stop me.

bouncing~ship Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 well first i'd take up some quantum physics and then i'd ask General Electric if i can use their time machine ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep73 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I was 16 and saw the second Chicago show a couple of weeks or so prior to the three famous MSG shows.... If I would have had the means in those days, I'm sure I would have loved to have done a road trip to see the band in N.Y. I do know this.... I spend alot of time thinking about being able to go back, those were the headiest, funnest times a 16 year old kid have. There isn't much I wouldn't do for the chance to go back and see one of those shows with the friends I saw Zep with back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonOfDarkness Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 well first i'd take up some quantum physics and then i'd ask General Electric if i can use their time machine ... I'm on board with the time machine idea. Seems feasible enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I was 19 going on 20 in '73 but on the other side of the planet. Sure would've liked to have caught it though. I am quite happy in the thought that I was lucky enough to see them in my home country the year before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I will tell you the truth if I could give up all my Led Zeppelin experiances in exchange for Him to be back healthy and Happy I would He helped raise Me and was really like a Big Brother .

ally Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Well I will tell you the truth if I could give up all my Led Zeppelin experiances in exchange for Him to be back healthy and Happy I would He helped raise Me and was really like a Big Brother . Nicely said Al. As great as Zeppelin were, they don't compare to the people that have touched our lives so significantly. I'd trade all my Zep experiences to have a few back as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brspled Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I saw them in January 1973 on the UK tour. I was just 16 then But I'm pretty sure you wished you were a bit older back then. Yes, there were times when we wished we were older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYC6880 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I was 11 years old when those concerts took place so I definitely wish I was a little older back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotplant Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I wouldn't want to be 20 then, the guys wouldn't have taken a second look! J/K!!!!! I was 17, almost 18 on the 73 tour. Almost legal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IluvJimmyPage Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I wasn't allowed to go either but that didn't stop me. Yeah I probably should have done that too!!! I'm at least fortunate to have seen them when I did though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel With A Broken Wing Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I'd sell my soul to the Devil to be 20 again and at MSG in '73!! Not really, I just thought that it's the answer you wanted to hear and I do try to be accomodating. Nice story alwizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IluvJimmyPage Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 As your sig shows, you've had some great Zep experiences! Definitely worth the wait!

PlantOneOnMe Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 1973? Heck yeah....I'd go back to 73 in a Heartbreaker heartbeat. I'd experience Zep live in NYC,like a fan should, AND on my birthday, no less! (July 29th) and you know that movie called Sliding Doors?.....well, I would open the doors I left closed and lock up the ones I wrongly chose. Too bad, tho'.....can't go back and change a damn thing.
