† – without Led Zeppelin2

Led Zeppelin2 – The Live Experience brings fans the excitement of Led Zeppelin “In Concert” by re-enacting the live improvisation and onstage interaction that earned Led Zeppelin their legendary status for performing.  Rather than a “greatest hits” show, fans experience Zeppelin as Zeppelin would have played in front of an audience.  The band has earned critical praise along the way with Chicago Sun Times proclaiming, “As good a Zep as Zep ever did back in the day.” while the Dallas Observer says Led Zeppelin2 is “… the closest thing to seeing the real Led Zeppelin.”  TimeOut Chicago adds, “A lot of Zep tributes out there, but this one’s our favorite… its members fully immerse themselves in the musicianship and style of the four classic-rock heavyweights. That Yakuza howler
Bruce Lamont
does a mean
Robert Plant
is icing on the cake.”
