The guy fails to understand the nature of an aging fan base. Why
would he think most Zeppelin fans would have to spend their beer money
to see the band?

Besides, I think his argument has some legs. He's saying that the
tickets would be priced so high that it would drive up the already high
average price of concert tickets even further.

I don't really agree with him, but I think I see his point. He's not
really saying anything negative about Led Zeppelin per se. It's more
like he's getting down on scalpers.

The columnist Todd Martens said in his article that Zep hadn't won a
Grammy. I wrote him a correction that, in fact, Zep won a Grammy for
Lifetime Achievement in 2005. I doubt if he'll publish a retraction for
has factual inaccuracy. His article was nothing but drivel.

I'd be taking my beer money with me and going for a piss during Jason's Moby
Dick.

That would be a great song for taking the P-break and also buying some more
beer and t-shirts.

I don't know who you are reading but anyone of the regs here, and that is
all who counts, never gave it much chance. Maybe you are confusing Usenet
with ledzep.com kiddie Group. Knebel sure is a hit over there.

nyuk.

Huh, did I hear a door slam and a mad set of fingers on the keyboard?
