Sorry..that was too easy.
I would have loved to have seen this latest reunion of Led Zeppelin as their last American tour was in 1977 and I was lucky enough to see them on night one of a three night stand in Chicago when I was 12 years old and just starting to enjoy their music as a budding young guitar player. That tour was also the beginning of the end of Led Zeppelin and is well told in this months Rolling Stone article .
With one person reportedly paying six figures for a pair of seats this review from last night's show is about as close as I will get to seeing them ever in this lifetime at least for now.
Possibly after the reception they received they may decide to embark on a tour to cash in like everyone else has and why not as they deserve it as much as anyone out there for their historic body of works to the annals of Rock and Roll history.

The Sun |HomePage|Showbiz|Bizarre: "LED ZEPPELIN returned to the stage last night with their first full set in 19 years — and younger members of the crowd had heard nothing like it. Manufactured pop is ruling the charts and young music fans are an impatient sort. Maybe that’s why the bars at the O2 Arena in Greenwich filled during some of the band’s winding rock epics. But their classics proved music doesn’t rock like it used to. Tracks like Whole Lotta Love and Stairway to Heaven had every one of the fans — who included LIAM GALLAGHER and SIR PAUL McCARTNEY — on their feet and shaking their fists." continued
