Became a fan in 7th grade and was lucky enough to see them once.

Looking forward to it.

Bummer on the no early concert footage. Damn manager!
 
I love it, this is right up my alley. I saw "The Song Remains the Same" in the eighth grade and I saw them live once on a Day on the Green. Oddly enough I don't remember it. I'll see this as soon as it comes out.
 
I went to many days on the Green. All the rock ones in the first 10. Only one I was not really into was the Gary Wright, but the other bands made up for him. Specially Robin Trower.

LZ played with Joe Walsh.. that was a great show, but can't remember who the others were that day. :afm199
 
I saw it the other night. Great stuff. I wasn't really into them when they were popular, so it was fascinating to watch. Was so interesting to hear Jimmy Page chat about everything. Plenty of old footage of them playing Budman.
 
I assume they must delve into lz's manager peter grant? That guy was an innovator in the rock biz.

Where did you see it Eric??

Thanks in advance.
 
Ah... so I wait. Thanks.
 
My wife told me it was playing in the south bay, but all I could find was a listing in SF.

I saw the Day on the Green show as well. I was on the front right side if the stage and I was disappointed. Too much fucking around to extend the songs. Too many drugs on board.
 
Saw that advertised-looks bad ass!

I sort of recall that being more of the norm back then. Those album takes were limited, but in concert the freedom of not having to hit 5 minutes or whatever allowed the drug induced pleasure to roll... er Rock N Roll.

I was not to far away from you. More center than right.
 
If you get a chance to see the Led Zeppelin cover band, Get The Lead Out. Go! I saw them at the Mountain Winery last year and they're awesome and the only time I was really impressed with a drum solo!
 
I always had a problem with led zep in my youth due to their "improvisational jams" during live shows. I didn't understand the concept and just assumed they were not skilled enough to play what was on the record, or too whacked out on heroin. I still think they were a little bit overrated and owe much of their success to their management. My favorite album was their least popular, "in thru the out door." I do have great respect for robert plant refusing to be in an "oldies band", tho. He is a true rock star.
 
Led Zeppelin, the band that ended the question of: "Who do you like better, the Stones or the Beatles?"

They played Tampa when I had a CB 500 and a girlfriend. Quad speakers in the stadium, 'Houses of the Holy' tour, about 1973 and I never got over it. Got over the girlfriend but not the album.

Documentary you say? I'm in. But if one song is played and cut short, I will be very, very disappointed. (I'm still mad at Ollie Stone for the poor treatment of The Doors and their music.)

Anyway, 'Walkin' Riverside Blues' will remain my favorite.
 
I saw the documentary last night. I really enjoyed it and the music was awesome. It was about how they started and their first few years into super stardom. What I really got out of it was how young they were at the time. There was no negativity in the movie. It was only about the music and how they got their start. Great sound and photography. I understand the band members much better now. I especially liked hearing Jimmy Page talking about his vision when creating the music.

This, all of it.
The Zep was indeed an integral ingredient in the soundtrack of my youth, but their existence was mostly involuntary.
I wonder how much of their music I would have listened to if I'd had a choice.
