Default I think we all knew this already

Jack Thanks for mentioning wolfgang's vault. Did anyone see the story of this on the CBS Sunday morning program 3-4 weeks ago?

Wolfgangs's vault is the website for the guy who bought the Fillmore promoter Bill Grahams entire collection (7-8 $mil) of tickets, posters, contracts and other artifacts and they sell all this historic rock stuff on the site! Bill Graham saved EVERYTHING, there are over 1 million tickets alone!!! It's taken them 3 years to catalog all the stuff!

And get this - they own 6500 color concert films from all these concerts in the 60's-90's at the Fillmore, Winterland etc... many of which they haven't even had time to review yet. Someday, maybe we'll all get a chance to see those films if they are put out on DVD from classic concerts back in the day. They have them all from Hendrix to Zeppelin to Skynyryd, to Dillan to Springsteen to....

It's way cool. Maybe we can see these someday and SHOW our kids and grand kids what it was like. I was too young to see the 60's stuff but heard it was great.

There was and still is NOBODY that can touch Zeppelin in total ability to deliver so much great, tasteful, powerful and subtle rock on one album. Nobody.
