Tonight on 107.5 Dave Rocks, check out Jessie David’s show The Essentials, because this week she’s covering Led Zeppelin! I spoke with her about Zeppelin for the show, and she asked me a question that makes me chuckle: “Have you ever seen them live?”
I laughed and told her I’m not that old! I was only 8 when the band broke up.
Her fellow radio personality Darryl Law was in line to get tickets at the Montreal Forum the day that John Bonham died. How’s that for historic? But I’m not as old as D-Law!
I thought this was worthy of a Sunday Chuckle, and a good opportunity to tell you about her show. 8:00 PM tonight, listen to Jessie David play some Zeppelin Essentials!
Led Zeppelin all around today.

Woah, is that the pic their first album cover was based on? Also, there’s a spelling error in “when the brand broke up,” brand or band? Sorry to be picking at those little things Mike!

The only person I’ve ever met who saw them, saw their last proper UK gig (at Knebworth) and said they were shite! Not what I expected at all.

He was a big fan too. They all had a lot of issues at the time.

I’m older and still never saw them but I didn’t really know much about them until after they broke up anyway.

I still say you should have told her you hung out with Page backstage.

I really thought they would tour the world when they did that US show in the 2000s with Jason Bonham.

The only person I’ve met who says she saw them told me they played at York University is a dorm? There was a goat there, somehow? I dunno. She could have been crazy.
