    Thats was quality. These are all the tracks i remember:
    shine it all around remix
    Black Dog
    Let the 4 winds blow
    hey joe
    what is and should have been
    tin pan valley
    when the levee breaks
    gallows pole
    shine it all around
    whole lotta love

    That shine it al around remix before he took the stage was pretty good. Hey joe was probaly the worst tune, but it was still a cracking gig. Whole lotta love - what an ending.
    Sausage did ye sell yer ticket in the end, sorry bout the whole ticket thing.

    his voice was fantastic though i have to say!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,468 ✭✭✭Roddy23


    he proves that ye can have a perm and still be cool.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 540 ✭✭✭Evil Sausage


    I did Roddy, actually I had a few offers from the brother in law. He had snapped up all my remaining tickets before I was talking to you and when you passed, he snapped up the last 1. No bothers.

    Yeah, superb show, the man still has it. Couple of moments, even with the new material, where the band just took off and he'd strike one of his poses and you'd get goosbumps. Ace!

    If you hazed your eyes a bit, it was... Zeppelin! Live!

    Mucho surprised by the amount of Led material, thought we'd only get Whole Lotta Love or something along those lines. His voice has held up extremely well; can still belt out them old tunes without a hitch.

    For those going tonight support The Legendary Shack*Shakers are definetly worth seeing for their eccentric frontman. They put on quite a show.

    Best gig I've been to all year. I still can't believe I saw Robert Plant live and I didn't think he would play that much Zeppelin, it was amazing! I thought the support were pretty good aswell

    No, he didnt play gallows pole ( my favourite zeppelin song ) BUT he did play ramble on....which almost made up for it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 771 ✭✭✭spiderlegs


    I saw him Friday. Robert Plant was truly amazing!! He had insense lighting on stage his voice is still brilliant and he played zeppelin stuff...I smiled so much during the gig that my face actually began to hurt!! I am so happy that I saw Robert Plant from Led Zeppelin it was sooo great....I'm still smiling about it :D

    i was there on sat night, from the sounds of it, it was much the same as fri only he didnt play gallows pole or what is and what should never be on sat night but he did play, going to california and ramble on. lots of the songs had new arrangements, like the riff in black dog was basically the same riff with a tottally different time sig. and they took the riff out of no quarter which tottaly killed me. did anyone elese notice that the guitarist on the left was the spitting image of aragorn from lord of the rings??

    the legendary shack shakers were an amazing live acted but their songs lacked and you could understand a word the singer was saying although he was one of the most energetic frontmen ive ever seen, and an awesome sight to behold. i was right up the front in the pit so that made it even better. deffenitly one of the best gigs of the year. the man has still got it.

    the last thing he said was "look out for festivals in the summer" so this probably means they'll be back either at oxegen or electric picnic or something.

    what a gig!

    Haha, bit late, but what the hey...

    DSC00690.JPG

    Pit bands, with these powers combined!
    And one more.

    My attempts to meet him after at the stage door failed miserably. BUT, I did see the bald keyboard guy, Skin the guitarist and the bass player, and I gave skin a pat on the back. :D

    Frickin awesome mix of Mighty Rearragner stuff and a few Zeppelin songs

    Setlist as I can remember it (not in order):
    Freedom Fighters
    Tin Pan Valley
    Black Dog
    Let The Four Winds Blow
    Four Sticks
    What is & What Should Never Be
    The Enchanter
    Takamba (?)
    Another Tribe
    Going to Callifornia
    Whole Lotta Love
    When The Levee Breaks
    Hey Joe

    It's also worth mentioning Andrea Corr was there too, in one of the boxes, and she's hott!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 389 ✭✭dango


    It's a small world! I was right beside you BopNiblets in the pit. That guy with the long hair was in front of me for most of the show.
    Correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't Roy Harper in a box with a camera???
    I'm so chuffed, i got a plec and a drum stick!!! Any takers??? heheh :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,579 ✭✭✭BopNiblets


    Heh, cool.
    I didn't see Roy Harper, but Ms Corr was up to our right, pretty sure it was her anyways.
