"The stage goes dark after Becks set and when the lights come on Jimmy Page is onstage which causes the crowd to go crazy".
This was a quote from someone who was at one of the Cow Palace shows - I meant to share it a few days ago but forgot.

"...and Tony Franklin on hair and bass."
I'd have liked to have been a fly on the wall listening to some of the cracks that must have been made about Tony's hair back then.

On This Day 04 December

Led Zeppelin. The end of an era of greatness but never the end of the Magick.

1980 04 December On This Day Led Zeppelin disbanded

1966 The Yardbirds - Lima, OH at Springbrook Gardens Teen Club
1972 Led Zeppelin - Glasgow Scotland at Green's Playhouse (day 2)
1980 Led Zeppelin disbanded
1984 Jimmy Page The Firm - Ludwigshafen, Germany at Pfalzbau

1980

To "disband" is to break up an organized group; to cause the break up and end the functioning of an organized group. The word is even more apt when applied to a musical group - a band.

Disbanding is not the same as saying the members of the group can't keep going on individually. They can "reband", they can soar on their own, they just can never go back to what they were.

The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not "get over" the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.
~Elisabeth Kubler-Ross & David Kessler, On Grief and Grieving

1984

“The main aim is to play some rock ‘n’ roll and have some fun.”

~ Jimmy Page
