Interesting take. I saw them twice; first show was one of the best I had ever seen live. Second was one of the worst. I blame the second more on the acoustics in the old Kingdome than anything else; it was really hard to even tell what they were playing at times.
Fast forward 30 years, and I saw Robert Plant outside at the St. Michelle winery a couple of years ago. It happened to be the 25th anniversary of Bonham's death. Plant was great, but the rest of the band was no Zeppelin. I do remember him being an hour late taking the stage and playing a very short set once he did. Struck me that he had adopted the stuck-up rockstar attitude.
I'll have to hear a few reports once (or if) they start playing again before I decide. Like I said, I've seen them before. I don't have the feeling I missed out like some of you.
