Nothing! I love LedZep. To many favorite songs to list. I love The Crunge, and How Many More Times? probably the best.

But, when you have a chick that likes LZ, well...

You know some girls who LOVE Zeppelin?






I saw them play "Black Dog" live in concert in 1980.

That rendition of STH was awesome. Wow.

I know that when Plant/Page wrote that they never in their wildest, wildest (LSD) dreams thought that moment was in their future.

I only wish the guy on lead played note for note, but definitely worth watching again. Maybe they should have had Lenny do it.

My wife surprised me when I was looking at 8’s a few years back. Said to get one if I wanted it so…. the Red Rooster resides in the garage. That’s her name for my male menopause car (also her term). She has never driven it in 2 1/2 years and finds it too obnoxious to ride in. Haven’t done a single trip in it since the footwell is too small for the stack of books and other essential items required by her to travel. With the cat less mid pipe and aftermarket cat back it’s much too loud.
She’s happy I have a toy and supports the odd track day so good enough for me. The odd complaint about parts is quelled by pointing out my car has no loan payment and never sees a shop (unlike hers).
My daughter the environmentalist is embarrassed when I pick her up from high school. Might be due to the pops announcing my arrival.
Once more impressed by Brettus - wife hates the car so you bought 2 more. Well done.

I remember listening to the radio when they announced that Bonham died. In Through The Out Door was getting like 4-5 songs radio played continuously and it seemed like they were getting a second wind and becoming unstoppable. Then poof. No more.

You must have seen them that summer before he died and they ended. Hopefully you kept your tickets and t-shirt. You could buy another engine for your 8 with that!

Oops, I meant I saw Heart play it.
Sadly I never saw Zep.

I consider it a parenting job well done that all my daughters love Led Zep.

She is mad about the dent in the bank account. She will most likely always be upset about it. As long as it was a safe financial decision and it truly makes you happy, she has nothing to get upset about. Congrats on the pickup!
