Modestly billed as "An event... The Supershow of the year!"
Led Zeppelin attract 56,800 persons to today's show and break the
single concert attendance record set by The Beatles in 1965. The
show grosses an estimate 309,000 pounds.
"Hello, It seems between us we've done something nobody's ever
done before... and that's fantastic!" is Plant's triumphant opening
comment. Robert's voice is a bit hoarse at first but overall it's a fine
performance for so early in the tour. The set list has had some major
changes for the American shows. "Celebration Day" has been recalled
and now follows directly after "Rock And Roll". "Over The Hills And
Far Away" has now been moved back in the running order to fourth
place. "Black Dog" is now performed with a few bars of "Bring It On
Home" as an introduction. "Dancing Days" and "Bron Yr Aur Stomp"
are both dropped from the standard set. John Bonham's solo "Moby
Dick" is reintroduced, although in a much truncated form. "Whole
Lotta Love" is also now much shorter, losing most of the medley
section, only "Boogie Chillum" is regularly retained.
The sheer size of the crowd tonight causes problems at the front of
the stage. After "Since I've Been Loving You", Robert appeals to the
crowd: "Listen, as we've achieved something between us that's never
been done before, will you just cool it on the barriers here. Because
otherwise a lot of people might get poorly, right? So if you have
a little respect for the person who's standing next to you, then possible
we can have no problems, do we? It's bad enough with the balance
of payments!" The situation doesn't improve however, so after
"The Rain Song" Plant addresses the crowd once more: "We want
this to be a really joyous occasion, I gotta tell you three people
going. We are animals, but we can move back a little bit because
it's the only way."
Robert comments that "Dazed And Confused" takes him back to when
he was 19... "before I got the clap or anything!" A power packed 11
minutes version of "Moby Dick" flows straight into "Heartbreaker"
which is in turn non-stop into "Whole Lotta Love". This is the
only occasion where these pieces are linked in such a manner.
Plant makes references to beating The Beatles' record during the
"Boogie Chillum" section.
The first encore of "The Ocean" is complete with Bonham's spoken
introduction and "Communication Breakdown" closes the stage.
