Did anyone watch the Kennedy Center Honors last night? I was especially blown away by Heart's tribute to Led Zeppelin with Stairway to Heaven. Wow. Ann Wilson still has it. What a performance!

Sorry, Dave. I never know what is on ahead of time. It is DH's job to keep track and make sure we catch it! :biggrin1:

It gave me chills, and it was especially moving to watch the reactions of Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones. Brings back college days memories. My roommate had their album.....sigh.....

Linda, got any pics of yourself in your rocker days.?

I think Robert Plant was having a hard time holding it together, just from watching his body language.

Stairway is one of my favorites of all time as well. And I don't know that I have ever seen such a moving rendition of any song as this one by Heart. DH and I did get to see Heart once a few years ago - when they were touring with Journey and Cheap Trick. They were absolutely awesome!

Ha, Dave - I don't know if I have any photos of my 'rocker' days or not. Can't think of any offhand. Sure some great music came from those times!

Oh man, I think I am going to have to visit You Tube and pull up a few old favorites! One that I always really liked, goes back a bit further than Led Zeppelin, was House of the Rising Sun. Back in the day, at our HS dances, we had live bands, and always looked forward to this one being played. Was always a huge Stones fan, Steppenwolf, Cream....

LZ has been my addiction since the sixties. If ever they did a reunion tour "that one" would be a must see!!! My favorite LZ cover was the Foo Fighters. Grohl did am amazing job on the drums.
Enjoyed the Foo Fighters performance too. We did see Page and Plant in the 90s when they toured as Page and Plant. I remember being very disappointed. It was not a particularly good concert. This band is more recent, but the reunion concert I would make every effort to see would be Steve Perry with Journey, although I don't have hopes of it ever happening, but I can dream....

Do you remember dancing to" In The God of Daveta?" 8th grade for me the song lasted forever!
Oh yes - Iron Butterfly. I think that song filled up one whole side of the album.

Remember when we thought this was long hair? Looking back now, it is quite stylish and neat. What were thinking?
Ha - and how our parents were so aghast at their look? Too funny, when you look back on it. Especially when their look is compared with the later look of the 'hair bands' and the look of the alternative rock/grunge bands, styles of rock that I like as well.
