Just texted him, hope he enjoys it!

Just got a text back, he is one happy Puppy!

The merchandise queue is a nightmare, apparently, but he got his wristband & ticket in 2 minutes!

One happy little dog!

I think that most people will find that the real problem occurs when the band hit the stage and find out in front of 20,000 people they just can't do it anymore or find out that they were as good as their worse gigs in the seventies. Destroyer bootleg anyone? :D

Its just going to be Page/Plant 98 with an extra bloke on bass. It will be fine. For believers it will be the second coming and for the sceptics, 3 old geezers who didn't arse it up this time round. I heard the rehearsals were good yesterday.

Is our Pete going?

I hope he wears a diaper, so as not to stain his already nearly worn out wizard-sleeve bell-bottoms, and crimson velour admirals coat.

They let him in!!??

Even after I e-mailed the ticket agents to watch out for a nervous big baby wearing a Dodgers cap and holding a Budweiser.

Some security.

I hope he enjoys it.

I'll just remember Chalk Farm Roundhouse November 1968

(I think I've got that date correct Pete ;) )

This entire episode of Pete trying to see Zep would make for a heart-warming Christmas story.

Good for him. I'm glad to hear it.

Looking forward to his "review".

I was thinking of something along the lines of 'A Christmas Carol'. John Coan would play Scrooge. Jeemo will be Bob Cratchit. The Ghost of Christmas Past will be played by Sea of Tunes. Christmas Present, Yompy, and The Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come will be Jimmy Page.

Pete will be Tiny Tim, of course.
