Undeniably Historic
LED ZEPPELIN - STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN AT O2 ARENA PtI:
Pt II
This is the first video/recording to surface on the web from Led Zeppelins undeniably historic reunion show last night at the O2 Arena in London.
As unbelievably amazing as this is, I have mixed feelings about a full blown Led Zeppelin reunion. I think it is amazing that they did play together again last night, even better that it was in memory of Ahmet Ertegun, and I can not wait for the video/album that you know they had to have recorded last night. But on the other had I am fearful that a full world tour could only cheapen the legacy greatest band in the history of rock. They are one of the most important bands ever and I would hate to see their legacy turned into another huge corporate sponsorship bonanza like every other washed up oldies act trying to cash in on their old fans being older and wealthier. They are better than that.
