REACTING to LED ZEPPELIN - Kashmir (Live from Celebration Day) (Official Video)

[@RonHouck-eb1cn]

The drummer is Jason Bonham, John’s son. He knew the music and the groups style. Nobody else could have ever taken John’s place and made it sound this good. RIP John

[@sicotshit7068]

@@RonHouck-eb1cn in an interview with Jason, he said he listened & learned all the music, because he wasn’t sure what songs they’d play. His playing is different then John’s, but Jason was the best person to fill his father’s shoes.

[@vicprovost2561]

Jason was dope, a chip off the block, not as powerful as his dad but really good in his own way, he is the best drummer I have seen in this century, I saw him with his solo band in the 90s, then with UFO and supporting Heart on their Led Zeppelin tour, he is the real deal, an awesome talent, perfect for them.

[@sicotshit7068]

@@vicprovost2561 I agree, the power of John was more an easy power, Jason did an amazing job && did his father proud. I had heard in an interview, when friends came to the house, John would have Jason play for them. John sometimes even woke Jason up to play, I’d say so proud of his sons playing at a young age. My opinion Bonham is the greatest drummer ever.

[@jdbroders64]

I second and third that. To have Jason take his father's place and do so brilliantly gives me goose bumps every time. The universe did a solid this time.

[@ballsyrocker]

I got to see Jason ,after this ,,playing playing drums with Foreigner back about 10 years ago ,at an open air concert at a stage on the horse track at Elkhart County 4H Fair,Indiana. He was phenominal with them and new lead singer Kelly ! Had great seats on the track in front of the stage for free. Peace.

[@pebblehilllane]

What you saw is an example of how truly talented Led Zeppelin (and while not seen in this video, other bands of The Golden Era Of Rock) were. No need for auto-tune and other garbage tricks relied on for modern music. Just the combination of being tremendously gifted, hard work staying sharp, keeping up on vocal training ... and tons and tons of pure confidence and swagger. When it comes to rock music no other era prior to or after The Golden Age Of Rock no one has come within a million miles of being nearly as gifted, as talented, as creative, as exciting or as entertaining.

[@chrisdavid-gh5yb]

Great reaction Steph, on drums is John Bonham's son Jason. He clearly had the worlds best drum teacher and was an obvious choice to perform this one off concert. This performance is 30 odd years after their peak in the 70s and proves they well and truly earned their place in history as the Greatest Rock Band Of All Time! Like MSG 1973, this whole performance is a masterpiece so you have many reactions to come. The entire experience is mind blowing. If I may please request the song, That's The Way, live from Earls Court 1975. I know you will not be disappointed . Keep the Led Zeppelin reactions coming and thankyou for your hard work and passion. Much love from Australia

[@rkb2092]

Good suggestion, I LOVE "That's the Way"!

[@WolfHeathen]

Robert Plant said in an interview that Jason at the age of 12 was already a better drummer than his dad.

[@davidthornber6507]

Like so many others, Led Zep is the sound track to my life. I'm 65, still listen to their tracks whilst riding my motorcycle, perfect combination.

[@FrankMasley-x3f]

73 here and the same.

[@sabiantheomnivore5592]

61 and I always thought they just needed a decent singer. Plant never really had a range, but they fitted the songs around him..

[@Voogelschreck]

Great reaction! The moment you realized that Robert still has his voice was amazing

[@MarcKiella]

That was my favorite part too!!

I would not have missed this concert for any money. paid £2400 to be there. Best money I have spent in my 53 years. I have been listening to Led since I was 15. BONZOS son was amazing.

[@juliemanarin4127]

I didnt get a ticket 😢 and I tried. I live in Chicago and I was going to go to London if I got a ticket! I'm 64 and I have loved them since 1970!

[@vicprovost2561]

Strike 3 for me too, tried then, also actually had tickets in my hand for them in Boston1973 but the show got cancelled because the crowd broke into the Boston Garden lobby and ransacked the concessions so Mayor White cancelled the show. Heartbroken! Also 1980 my best friend worked at a record store with a ticket master outlet their, he guaranteed 4 tickets to Zeppelin when the tour came to New York, then Bonham died. It still makes me cry at times thinking about all this, Led Zeppelin was one of the very few bands ( Beatles, Hendrix, Doors) I did not get to see...

[@danjohnson2986]

Jealous!!!

[@petejones879]

Jeez that's a hell of a lot of money.. I saw them at Knebworth in 79 cost me £7.50 and that was for a whole days worth of live bands with Zep headlining

[@JoshSmith-wo7zw]

Back in the 70's you had alot of really good rock bands but then there was Led Zeppelin and they always managed to stay a notches above everyone else at the time

[@tetsu11]

Led Zeppelin's last concert, I wish I could have been there, I would recommend seeing the tribute they gave them at the Kennedy Center Honors with John Bonham's son, Jason.

To see her reaction brought tears to my eyes no one that I seen them front row three times and lived it how lucky were we what is dose of music during our generation

Your reaction reminded of me when I first watch this concert. It's been 27 years for ever Led Zeppelin fan for this show. Tears of happiness throughout the whole show. Thanks Steph.

[@chha6439]

Still sound like they did in the 70s when I was a kid thank you Jason for taking after your dad

[@christianocosta1862]

Rock Gods. Best Live band ever. Period. No other band, put together tha amount of talent. Isso like put together Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Picasso and Salvador Dali. Pure talent working together.

[@juliemanarin4127]

As old as they were here...in their 60s...still the greatest. The drummer Jason Bonham did his daddy proud! This was a one night concert! No guitar solo in this one! But watch the other songs from this concert!

[@AussieGooner101]

Fantastic spontaneous reaction! Your emotions flowed as they should! You really have a deep understanding of the music!

[@sicotshit7068]

For this concert, in just 2 hours they had requests for 20 million tickets, there were only 20 thousand available. They held a lottery, to make it more fair, for those wanting tickets. Always was & always will be the greatest band.

[@lazartapavicki4684]

That lottery almost broke the internet from what I remember.☺

[@sicotshit7068]

@@lazartapavicki4684 the request for the 20 million tickets did, since there were that many requests in about 2 hours.

[@vicprovost2561]

They could have filled that place a 1,000 times! No one sells out that many times but them.

[@sicotshit7068]

@@vicprovost2561 I agree, even back in the day, stadiums weren’t big enough for the demand. They always sold out, no matter how many nights the played in one city. I sadly didn’t get to see them live, I’d trade in all the concerts I saw, just for one Zeppelin concert. The earlier days I was to young, when I was a teen, they were either to far away or by then stopped playing USA. I did see the movie when it was released, other then that, I’m so glad for the live videos. I’ve rewatched the movie twice, & watched the Earls Court & Knebworth concerts.

[@MarcKiella]

The amount I heard but unconfirmed for "scalped tickets" were going for more than £30,000 2-3 days before the concert. This could be exaggerated, but also believable.

[@Danilogon2009]

You're awsome! Your Led's reactions make me feel like listening to this songs for the very first time again. It's a hole new emotion :) Tks from Brazil ❤

[@gregor-the-bug]

Hi Steph. Actually the Celebration Day concert was in 2007, so it was 17 years ago. A documentary was produced about the concert in 2012. That's probably the date you saw. FYI Jimmy celebrated his 80th birthday earlier this year. John Paul Jones is 78. Robert Plant is 75 and has a striking resemblance to Professor Dumbledore :). Robert is collaborating with Bluegrass-country singer Allson Krause. The only downside to growing up with this music is we're all old now:)

[@DavidCalvert-mh9sy]

Did you need to bring up the age thing? I was just starting to feel young again.

[@npageejay]

And Robert is still touring!

[@gregor-the-bug]

@@DavidCalvert-mh9sy Sorry to be a downer, my friend. I guess it was an awkward way to say that today's kids have nothing on our generation when it comes to coolness and especially music, (I'm 72). All the best to you. Keep rockin'

[@vernhoke7730]

This became my favorite Led Zeppelin song when I bought this album back in 1975. I had all their albums up to "In Throughthe Out Door", which was the last one I bought in 1979. After John Bonham died in 1980, I did purchase a couple of collections of reissued songs. This song quickly became my favorite, I understand that it's Robert's favorite as well, song. After seeing this performance, dozens of times, it's clear why. You can't go wrong with any song from this concert.

[@TheGathumpus]

So now you have to see the "Heart" tribute version of "Stairway To Heaven" at the Kennedy Center Honors. With Led Zep members in the audience.

[@James_Loveless]

Was lucky enough to see this Song Perfomed in 1988 Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary Concert at MSG NYC

[@npageejay]

So glad you reacted to that version and I loved how much you appreciated it - possibly the best reaction of yours I have seen so far! For someone like me who grew up with their sound it is wonderful to see a younger person getting as much out of it as I did (and still do). Thank you 😊

[@treetopjones737]

You should do the *Heart* tribute to Led Zeppelin performance at *the Kennedy Center Honors* , with the 3 ( Jimmy, Robert,, and John Paul Jones ) enjoying the show.

Never ever forget John Paul Jones. The bedrock of the band.. often overlooked, but musical inspiration that was always behind them, never seeking the limelight.❤

Steph has certainly got the Led Zeppelin in her veins there's no denying that fact the times I've watched her reaction to all the Led Zeppelin videos you can see the excitement written on her face and you know she has real appreciation for there outstanding music and especially when performing live steph is a true fan I firmly believe she is and I think given the chance to see them live she would for sure they are true legends and there music will live on forever and ever and rightly so and I really enjoy watching steph in the chair doing a wonderful job she's a wonderful fine young lady who really does understand real music that's for sure 😊🎉

[@JohnLedger-g4i]

Steph. The last time they played together. It’s a benefit concert for their old boss at Atlantic Records. Jimmy’s guitar spot on. Plants vocals still as strong as ever and his story telling skills with his body language excellent. JPJs organ bringing out eastern vibes and remember he’s playing the bass line by using pedals under the organ. And Jason - his father’s son. Outstanding. If you learn nothing else in life - keep listening to Zep. More Zep Steph !!!!

[@marklecuona8889]

I was listening to Stairway to Heaven over and over in my bedroom when it was released. I was 14 years old. This is not Stairway to Heaven but this final blast into the ether by Led Zeppelin reminded everyone of their dominance in the world of rock music. The moment that Robert screams at 5:39 is the collective sound of the desperate human race.

[@JimAlberts-y5v]

27 years later, and still awesome! :)

[@robertevans2450]

Old men on stage showing the many generations that have followed what excellence in a live performance is, much like Pink Floyd, setting the bar of performance and giving a demonstration as to why they are the greatest Rock band that ever was. Rock God status unlocked and achieved. This level of achievement may never be equaled, may never even be approached by modern bands who don't pay their dues in blood sweat, and tears on the road, without the gimmicks, without the enhancing tools, just straight from the soul music. I think we are all grateful that they blessed us one last time and gave an example of what could be, not a fairytale, not a lost impression from days that seem so far away from the here and now. For those of us who were lucky enough to have seen and experienced the original live Led Zeppelin shows, we get our answer, of just how great it would be for this amazing band to have all the bells and whistles in stage theatrics of today(2010's) to give the ambient background to their acoustic gifts.

[@grandwazoodebris1015]

A great performance of their greatest song imo. I think the modern recording has this huge bottom end which emphasizes how monumental the song is. The drummer is Jason Bonham, John's son. This was from their farewell concert. They sounded great. They didn't have the jam band, let's play 3 1/2 hours kind of attitude for this concert, but still sounded great, was a great show (I only saw the dvd, not live ha ha).

[@LynndelVanWechel]

Jason would even sit in for his Dad when he was young in practice. Robert is Jason's godfather. Another great heart felt reaction. A vote for Rock & Roll from this concert. Rock on

Steph Their set was part of tribute to their label, Atlantic Records' founder, Ahmet Ertegun. Tribute concert was recorded in 2007, year after Ahmet's death in 2006 at the age of 83. In 2012, footage released as Celebration Day with Led Zeppelin as headliner. One Million of LZ's fans paid 125 to 250 Pounds to get tickets by Lottery of 20,000 tickets. Concert event was at the O2 Arena. Fans thought that Led Zeppelin were embarking reunion tour with John's son, Jason Bonham. I read that Jimmy and John Paul Jones were up for the tour, but Robert Plant declined the interests. Jason learned from his father; John Bonham as John showed him of drumming since Jason was a kid.

[@redpine8665]

When asked why he didn't want to do a Zep reunion tour, Plant always said he was always moving forward, etc. And while that's true - it's a fact that if this were a tour, he would not sound like that by show 3 or 4. His larynx would be falling out. He had to sing songs that didn't require all the high octane wailing that a lot of Zep songs did. Even in the 70's his voice would give out on tour and they had to postpone shows.

For more from this show, try their amazing No Quarter and get lost in the atmosphere! They could have sold out this huge arena 500 times when they put tickets on sale, they were overwhelmed they were still uber popular with all generations in 2007.
