leddy Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 (edited) Its almost a year since that amazing world beating gig when Zeppeloin regained the crown as being the biggest draw in music, how many of us from here actually went ?? I know of a few who went but do not come on this board anymore which is very sad. Edited November 16, 2008 by leddy Quote
pinky Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Well I tried but failed, maybe if I entered the lottery more than once. Quote
moffo Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 I went, Block 416, Row H, Seat 822.... Got to tell you frustrated fans, there were 2 empty seats infront of me and 2 behind. Such a shame, I think that was one of the downsides of the lottery style distribution, maybe some were lucky but just couldn't get there. Quote
ledzep45 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 I didn't go but my uncle did. That lucky...... Quote
reswati Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 Not much reply on this thread, Leddy......possibly everybody stayed at home. :D Anyway, I went, experienced it, partied, laughed, cried, hugged a lot of people. Strange how fast a year can pass..... Quote
ally Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 I'm quite happy for those that did get to go. OK, maybe just pleased Quote
ally Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 OK, I admit it, I was there too. It really must have been great. I don't think anything I've seen has done it justice. Maybe an official release but, even that would not be the same. Here's to Led Zeppelin Quote
Aquamarine Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 It was great--unforgettable. Even if I couldn't see anything for the first three songs! Quote

I know of a few who went but do not come on this board anymore which is very sad. Leddy, why do you think that they don't come on this board anymore? What drove them away? Quote

Aquamarine Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 Jesus girl, you should've jumped on some dudes shoulders I did--a couple of really great Brazilian guys lifted me up briefly so that I could at least see a bit (bless you, friends!), and then finally another really great guy let me stand in front of him (bless you, friend!), so after that if I stood on tiptoes I could mostly see. And the first song I could see as well as hear was my all-time favorite, IMTOD!! Before that I couldn't even see the huge screen at the back. Quote
ninelives Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 I can't believe nearly a year has passed since the show! I wasn't there but I remember trying to log on here as someone who was there (bless you!) was texting a former member here the set list so it was really great to vicariously live through the concert.

I wasn't there but I remember trying to log on here as someone who was there (bless you!) was texting a former member here the set list so it was really great to vicariously live through the concert. I did the same thing. Awaiting the set list (one song at a time) with new emails popping up every 3 or 4 minutes... R Quote

R It was maddening though to try to open the thread because there were thousands of people on the board at that time! I think it still stands as the most members on this board to date, no surprise of course. Quote
ledded1 Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Oh I was there And met up with some very special people that week Quote
