Well its finally happening, the biggest rock reunion in the history of rock reunions. After the little hiccup of Page fracturing a finger the gig is finally on for Monday 10th Dec.
I entered the draw for tickets, and then every competition going to win some, but alas it doesn't look like I'll be going.
I still had a couple of other options though..
1. I now live within a 5mile radius of Robert Plant, so I've desperately been loitering around the market town of Machynlleth in the hope of bumping into RP or an old roadie, smiling sweetly and grabbing myself a couple of tickets. This hasn't worked.
2. RP himself actually opened the church gardens in Penal and the local Rector is a friend of mines Dad, sooo maybe just maybe, Ah nope seems he's not been round for beer for a while now.
3. Take up mountain biking again and start visiting all the old houses in the area that Robert Plant and Led Zeppelin wrote songs and filmed video in, in the hope that their having a nostalgic visit. Geeez you can knock that idea on the head after biking up to the Bron Yr Aur which appears on the Physical Graffiti album, I'm knackered.
Well on that note and before I get arrested for either stalking or trespassing, I hope everyone that goes tomorrow has a great time, and I guess I'll be buying the DVD.

I didnt, Get Led Zeppelin Tickets
I've been a Led Zep fan since a cool builder gave me two of his old vinyls as a birthday present, I was a reclusive teenager at the time and he was building an extension at my parents house and heard the usual heavy s***e banging out of a teenagers room, he thought I might like them so gave me a couple of originals. Cooool
Anyway on hearing about the Ahmet Ertegun tribute I was excited to say the least, being too young to see them in their heyday here was my chance!!! I proceed to spend the next 3 hours (and yes I was at work) trying to register on the website. You know when the big promotion Gods decide to do something like this does know body stop to consider the shear volume of traffic there going to get to their site and actually upgrade the server/ bandwidth etc in anticipation, come on!!!! this band are one of only 4 to have sold more than 100 million albums in the US, the other three being Elvis, the Beatles and Garth Brooks. Did the promoters not think that there might just a little bit of interest...Duh.. So I eventually register..then you wait.
Tick tock, tick tock, day after day you wait, until the 1st of October when in your inbox arrives.......NOTHING!!!! Crying in my beer again now hang on a mo.....ok so I wasn't lucky this time and the rumour is that they may tour next year so fingers x I'm in the same country at the same time as them.
In the meantime I hope all the fans that got tickets have an absolutely fantastic time and to all the people that simply registered, were lucky enough to get tickets and are now trying to sell them on Ebay, I hope that you are all as disappointed one day, as you have surely taken the place of a genuine fan that day and all for your own selfish monetary gains. What goes around comes around you know and we will get our revenge.
Oh and for anyone daft enough to buy from these people be warned, theres going to be a whole heap of passwords/ security questions ans ID required before your even aloud to pick up the tickets in person, yes thats right in person with ID proof
For those of us that wont be going here a little video taster.
