Here is the review of the Led Zep concert, from the New York Times and AP. How much would these tickets be worth?

Tickets were $ 200 , said a broadcast I watched last night ..although I looked for some on e-bay about 3 months ago and could'nt find any under a grand .. anybody in attendance is lucky indeed ..

The coverage for this was crazy, considering they are only 3/4th's of the original band. When Cream reunited in '05 I didn't see anything about the London or New York shows in the papers or on tv, but the shows drew people like Jimmy Page, Paul McCartney, Joe Perry, Brian May, Sean Penn, etc. There was just one little ad in the New York Times, and they still became MSG's highest grossing shows.

This Zeppelin reunion was totally overhyped, they were a great band but not great enough to warrant front page coverage on Calgary newspapers. Funny that Zeppelin can still get away with making money on plagiarism, with people paying fortunes to hear stolen songs like 'Whole Lotta Love', 'Dazed and Confused', "Stairway to Heaven', etc.

"only 3/4th's of the original band"

Wow! Can you imagine the coverage if they had somehow brought back the fourth member?

I can just see the headline:

 

JOHN "BONES" BONHAM EXHUMED TO JOIN MATES ON TOUR

 

"He seems a bit sluggish" remarks lead singer Robert Plant, "but we are all a bit longer in the tooth now, aren't we?"

Haha

 

On a slightly related topic, has anyone here heard the Plant/Allison Krauss album? It's actually a pretty solid record

What is really funny is the first time I read the post I was trying to decipher it assuming it was Maxspeak.
