  1. The quiet cool one..... http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Peb76uCqCTI/Ulejle3hSuI/AAAAAAAAlUY/fnK2x7tTE7E/s1600/John+Entwistle+Zombie+437894423.jpg
  2. Thank you so much for posting that. I loved it, but I have to say that I didn't expect to see Jimmy sounding so frail and looking ten years older than he actually is. I was a freshman in high school when Led Zep debuted their first album. And here we all are today, and this frail sounding old man with the gray hair is Jimmy Page. Amazing. I was amazed as well. I mean I've aged some over the years but nothing to the extent that Page appears to have today. However, this quote from my local radio station probably sits well with Page.... *Every day above ground, is a good day*
  3. You know how it is, one has to get into shape to handle the riggers of the road.
  4. That's why I would never ever make a good juror. I would have voted "not guilty" just to spite the plaintiff's attorney. You are right. He was an arrogant jerk. To me the key to this nonsense was that when Randy California was alive he didn't bring forth a suit. Even though I'm sure he was well aware that he could've. There was no need to go forward with any of this......I'm sure greed and the past copyright infringements LZ has done was a factor here.
  5. Lol, I didn't know that the plaintiff's lawyer was a moron. I also didn't realize that the jury wasn't even allowed to hear the actual songs in question! More info. http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/led-zeppelin-prevail-in-stairway-to-heaven-lawsuit-20160623?page=2

It seemed like everything they released around that time became a smash hit.
  7. Came across this update. 'Stairway to Heaven’ trial jury mulling verdict after impassioned closing arguments Plaintiffs are seeking millions in damages from Led Zeppelin by Will Robinson • @Will_Robinson_ Posted June 22 2016 — 4:47 PM EDT Jury deliberations have begun in the “Stairway to Heaven” copyright infringement trial after both sides made their closing arguments in a Los Angeles federal courtroom Wednesday. Led Zeppelin is accused of lifting parts of the iconic rock song’s introduction from the song “Taurus” by a band called Spirit. After six days of trial, the jury is expected to deliver a verdict by Thursday. more at: http://www.ew.com/article/2016/06/22/stairway-heaven-trial-closing-arguments.

It was a staple song on early MTV.
  10. Is this directed at me? No. It's directed at the so-called song you posted! You don't like that song? It is the only song they ever did that I did like. Same with me, I can't stand the band BUT that song is a classic and THE only one I liked by them.
  11. A song about addiction, probably Daves own addiction especially in that second paragraph speaking in the third person..... I heard somebody fixed today There was no last goodbyes to say His will to live ran out I heard somebody turned to dust Looking back at what he left A list of plans and photographs Songs that never will be sung These are the thinge he won't get done I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use the man I've seen them crawl from the cradle to the gutter on their hands The fight a war but it's fatal, it's so hard to understand I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use that man Just one shot to say goodbye One last taste to mourn and cry Scores and shoots, the lights go dim Just one shot to do him in He hangs his head and wonders why Why the monkey only lies But pay the pauper, he did choose He hing his head inside the noose I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use that man I've seen them crawl from the cradle to the coffin on their hands They fight a war but it's fatal, it's so hard to understand I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle in his hand Cryptic writing on the wall, the beginning of the end I've seen myself use the needle, seen the needle in my hand http://youtu.be/r7Co_N938k0
  12. To this day I never knew LZ played Live Aid, they must have been horrible. No wonder they have never wanted to or have toured they just know they would stink.
  13. 358. On EVERY tour they come up with the most innovative lighting/lazors I've ever seen from any band. Head and shoulders above ALL others. http://livedesignonline.com/site-files/livedesignonline.com/files/uploads/2013/08/RUSH%200279%20%C2%A9%20Steve%20Jennings.jpg
  14. I've seen RUSH there at least 4 times as well. The first time way back I spent 3 hours getting out of that nightmarish of a parking lot URRH! Great times at that place before it was called Jiffy wasn't it called Nissan Pavillion. Survived the thunder/rainstorm on the S&A tour, partied in parking lot seeing who could come up with the coolest frisbee throws....those were the days. Huge GUP fan, my #1 RUSH album but lately I'm having a crush on PoW of which I disliked when it came out. I gather I wanted something similar to GUP, I did see that tour 5 times.....ok time to jam Territories.
  15. ^^^^^Well if not many have heard of that one I'M SURE many have heard this one......Where The Streets Have No Name live
  16. This one from around 1988 out of DC..... 61. Waiting Room.....FUGAZI
  17. Surprised no one has mentioned this one.....

  19. Randy California was given that name California by the one and only Jimi Hendrix.
  20. That's funny they talk about that very thing in the video I posted. My view on this is that the opening is similar but not the same to award money or any rights to those who have brought this case forward. I can remember driving my daughter to school some years ago and I heard for the time that song by Robin Thicke. The very first thing came to my mind was the a song by Marvin Gaye. At the time I couldn't remember the name of the song....the bassline I kept saying I know that song I know that song. I was so so glad that Marvin Gaye's family won that case because that was a straight up rip off of a classic Gaye song through and through.
  21. Hardly note for note. Same key and tempo at the outset, but very different notes. And then a quick departure. They had me fooled, as im a novice with the guitar I could never be impartial on a jury with them, I'd be mezmorized with Page Plant. Man it sucks they never toured after that London show. Saw recording of Plant singing Zep at a Euro fest feom a couple years ago (2014?). He sounded good, was like man cmon get Page n go! Jason Bonham would probably tour with them if they ever decided to tour however like RUSH they will never again have a major tour.
