 UNDER CONSTRUCTION FOR WHO KNOWS HOW LONG. I'm working on another (time consuming) project that takes precedence. Note that info on this page has not been fully updated yet and links may not work properly. Thank you for your patience.

On This Day 23 June

 The man's got a lot of moves.

  • 1966 The Yardbirds - Ashton-under-Tyne, Manchester, England at Mecca Palais
  • 1972 Led Zeppelin - San Diego, CA at San Diego Sports Arena
  • 1977 Led Zeppelin - Inglewood, CA at The Forum
  • 1980 Led Zeppelin - Bremen, Germany at Bremen Stadthalle

1977 23 June LA Forum - Raymond fixes the guitar strap
The LA Forum shows are considered some of the best of Led Zeppelin's performances. The 23 June show is referred to the Badge Holders show as Robert Plant made several dedications to the badge holder people. One of the high quality bootlegs of this show is entitled For Badgeholders Only..

The boys were so hot that night that no one faults the show for some fumbles.  The whole band stopped to wait after the first song when Jimmy's strap on double-neck broke and Raymond fixed it. Keith Moon of The Who showed up on stage during Over The Top (Moby Dick) and appeared on and off thereafter.  The band got lost after John Paul Jones missed a change during Kashmir, a song that sounds deceptively simple to play but isn't.  Mr. Jones has been quoted as saying he stuck a piece of a paper on his keyboards to help him remember.
