1967 12 July On This Day Yardbirds in Illinois

• 1967 The Yardbirds - Aurora, IL at Crimson Couger Club
• 1969 Led Zeppelin - Philadelphia, PA at The Spectrum - Summer Pop Festival
• 1973 Led Zeppelin - Detroit, MI at Cobo Hall

1969:

Led Zeppelin - follow the rules? Wasn't Jimmy Page always about pushing the musical envelope? At the three day Summer Pop Festival there was a thirty minute performance limit and a no-encore rule. But no rules apply to Led Zeppelin. The fans went crazy and Led Zeppelin came back onstage for an encore.

1973:

More firecrackers. I've said it before and I'll say it again and again: It's not easy being a rock star.
