Me Too!!

Entries to the ballot have now closed. One million people applied for 20,000 tickets in the end.

Just got to see if my numbers come up now. I think it works out as a one in 50 chance? Or is it a one is 25 chance because my wife registered as well (two tickets per household)? I am not very good at working out odds.

I will know by 1st October.

Getting worried?

by **dave-r** » 01 Oct 2007 12:08

Yeah. If I win the buggers I will need to find £300 ($600USD) to pay for them! :lol:

by **RedRaven** » 01 Oct 2007 12:38

Man that is steep...I mean dont get me wrong I would love to see them but that is expensive...Its kinda emotional blackmail aswell!!!

by **Eddie** » 01 Oct 2007 13:38

I agree Wayne. I would never pay that kind of money.

by **RedRaven** » 01 Oct 2007 13:56

Ram raid with a big block MOPAR through the front doors!!!

by **dave-r** » 01 Oct 2007 21:11

Well it looks like I was not one of the lucky ones.

But then again, when am I ever? :roll:

by **RedRaven** » 01 Oct 2007 21:31

You have to believe Dave...It still might happen

by **dave-r** » 02 Oct 2007 13:08

Actually. I have not seen ANY evidence of ANYONE getting tickets yet. There are no actual tickets for sale on ebay so that is slightly hopeful.

Well. Better than no hope. :roll:

I was too young to travel large distances to see Led Zep. I was only 12 when I first got into them. That would be 1971. If they ever played Newcastle I wouldn't have been allowed to go then anyway.

Seen Robert Plant a couple of times though.
Once as "The Priory of Brion" in a very small venue so I was only a few feet from him.
The last time was in the new futuristic Sage music venue on the Tyne (fantastic acoustics) on his Mighty Rearranger tour with The Strange Sensation.
Bloody good gig that was. Member Tim came up to see it with me. The DVD does not do it justice.

Hope you get it Dave. I called our only Rock radio station here, they havent heard anyone recieving any tickets yet either,(E-Bay). They did say it would cost over 800.00 U.S. estimated. Whew! My insurance for one year on my R/T@200k coverage!!!!! :shock:

by **Tim** » 03 Oct 2007 17:13

I had honest to God goose bumps when Robert Plant's band let rip with Whole Lotta Love. He's still got it! :s002:

No sign of those tickets then Dave?

by **RedRaven** » 02 Nov 2007 20:26

Quick update guys, Ive been told that the gig is being put back by 2 week cause Page cant get his sh*t together!!

by **drewcrane** » 03 Nov 2007 2:02

Dave,Wayne,anyone else. our radio rock station has announced it's a sickness of Jimmy's that's preventing him from performing and it could be put on hold for 4-6 weeks. Dont know how true that statement is?

by **72challenger3406pk** » 04 Nov 2007 5:00

Article in today's paper, (Chicago Sun-Times) says Jimmy Page broke a finger and the concert has been postponed to December 10th. Page says this will give his finger time to heal. No word on how or what finger he broke, pick or fret board hand. I saw Jimmy and the boys twice in the late 60's, its a concert you will never forget I promise you!

by **patrick** » 04 Nov 2007 6:39

Yep, Jimmy fractured a finger. I heard it's only put off a few week's. Come on people, we're all human. The Gig is going to happen. :thumbsup:

Change of plan's and work schedual is a pain in the butt though. :roll:

He didnt do anything to his finger, he cant get his sh*t together in rehersals mate the whats really wrong.

by **drewcrane** » 04 Nov 2007 12:48

jimmys talented enough to play with 1 finger :lol:

,they will get it together...................someday :s008:

by **Eddie** » 04 Nov 2007 14:09

Finger Huh? Did his chick cross her legs and thats how it broke? :s023:

by **dave-r** » 04 Nov 2007 14:19

I must admit. When I heard on the news that he had broken his finger, but there was no explanation as to how that might have happened, my first suspicion was that rehearsals were maybe not going as planned.

It does not bode well for any future Led Zep tour.

by **drewcrane** » 04 Nov 2007 14:39

yea cross check in the crotch :s002:

by **RedRaven** » 04 Nov 2007 14:42

Wonder if they are going to hook up or this is just a fantasy? A "whole lotta" upset fans if this happens! :wink2:

by **Eddie** » 04 Nov 2007 14:55

Weird, but of all places, Wal-Mart is promoting a special Led-Zepplin album release, as well as AC/DC and Black Sabbath,(Tony Iommi, DIO ect), all the great metal bands of our misguided youth in special release format including some songs never released before or live editions. :thumbsup:

I was there yesterday but didnt see the Zep special. I think Nov.22 was the announced date for release. I wonder if this 'setback' will effect any of that? My crdit card is 'clean' but 440 source has their name on it :s009:

by **dave-r** » 06 Nov 2007 11:08

Looks like he really did break a finger.
