Diss: It was Reading Festival. 3 days, and the largest crowds get over 100,000. SOAD were on last but one on the last day, so got huge crowd.

And the bottles were plastic, but yeh, there are many plastic bottles around there, cause people want drinks (it was 37C). Water at £2 a pop though

Led Zeppelin are simply better than the others when it comes to musicianship and range.

I happen to be a person who likes the "weird" Zep stuff like "Gallows Pole" and "Boogie with Stu".

No member of Zep is the finest musician ever to play his particular instrument but I can't think of another group that has all its members playing at that high a level.

Bon-Yaur stomp, Achilles last stand is a great song, I aslo like In My time of Dying, Moby **** is classic, Wearing and Tearing, Poor Tom, and I'm gonna crawl.

I always said I quite liked those pieces, which is why I got them off you However that doesn't stop my personal opinion that I don't like Led Zep.

About the same, IIRC. Personally I don't like them, and don't listen to them (with the exception of the above two songs). However I can see technical merit in it.
