Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
My feedback thread is here.
You lucky bugger. Front row I hope!
Edit: Back to the actual point of the thread. I'd have loved to. I'm too young to have ever seen the band live.

Did the one I was at in a little leotard.
Couldn't keep my eyes off her thighs. Think that was the point in time that started my thigh fetish
Sound was pretty poor & they were mostly going through the motions IMHO.
Fell out with diehard friends for saying this at the time, but I know I was right

And I've never really bought into the idea that punk made such a difference. Of course it was huge - and hugely influential - for those that liked it, but the likes of Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis as well as more mainstream acts like Supertramp, Fleetwood Mac and The Eagles were hardly swept aside. They probably barely noticed unless they were reading the music press at the time. Phil Collins may have said Genesis couldn't get arrested at the time but their biggest success - by far - was still to come.
And as for the singles and albums charts - Abba, Boney M, ELO, Meat Loaf, the Grease and Saturday Night Fever soundtracks. I don't think any of them were losing sleep over X-Ray Spex either.
a: they play in time
b: the guitars are in tune
c: Percy doesn't make all those unnecessary noises?
Otherwise, I'm gonna have to go with a firm no.
TBH I've never got LZ. Most of my friends have dug them at some point, and I like the odd song or two, but most of the time they just set my teeth on edge.
I said maybe.....
It's that sort of tedious overblown self-indulgent live performance that's the problem - and why punk was needed to give it a well-deserved kick in the balls. Zeppelin were far from the only culprits.
