Anyone wanna front me and my wife 250 pounds for tickets, airfare from California, and hotel stay?
If so, sticky me, I will be your bestest friend.
And on a side note, 12 days from now will be 27 years since the world lost the most influential drummer of our time.
One of my all time favorite Led Zep songs? Kashmir
About 80,000 fans per minute are trying to register for tickets.
^ lol. Imagine how much front row seats are going to cost?
20m in bid for Led Zeppelin tickets

I went to high school in LA and saw Zeppelin at the Forum - It was the Song Remains the Same tour - I got seats four out of the seven nights they played.
On their night off, Jimmy Page came into a club I was at called the Starwood and jammed with a band called The Detectives. The sad thing is, my memory sucks, and I barely remember much from any of the shows... Dazed and Confused, but I was there ;)
I have seen tickets sites that are selling these tickets for close to $2000 a pop. Since they are not authorized to sell these tickets, their is only one way to fill those orders.
If 80,000 tickets are sold, then I figure I have about a 1 in 250 or 300 chance of getting tickets, and im ain't selling them for any price.
Can't help wondering how much influence any drummer has had 'in our time'?<edit - or of course any time for that matter>
I can't say I've been influenced much, if any, by a particular drummer, but I can name a few guitar players that have.
Any given drummer probably doesn't have much sway in polite society, but some have more influence in drummers' world than others.
