you know the album IV the track "Four Sticks" Bonham actually played with four sticks, two in each hand
In 1971 Orlando, Zepplin unveiled this song on their soon to be out album. 200+ of us crashed the gate & got in free. It was full & closed, but as we climbed the 20' gate fence, they threw the gates open. It was so thick from pot smoke you couldnt see Zep from the back, and hot as hades. It was great they stuck it out in that old medal building, in Orlando Sports Stadium heat. Must have been nearly 20000 crammed in there. Orlando was a little city then, bit Winters End Rock Festival the year before got attention after the police tried to prevent the Festival. Only Johnny Winter & Mountain of the big groups fought through allthe hassle. I spent the day driving kids from Canada, Cal, & many other distant places for fun. Only 100,000 of the expected 400000 showed up when a judge belatedly ordered the Sherrif to open Florida's 2nd deadliest highway to the Festival. Disney had just opened & growth was everywhere. Amazing times. Great music. 13million now live there in the same diameter Miami claims as its metro.
Nobody dances back then.
Watch song remains the same and you’ll see everyone is paying attention big time, but not dancing.
We used to dance in our brains.
Nice to see calm eye closed meditation listening.
