As you no doubt know, last night was the big Led Zeppelin reunion show in London, and the press is going nuts over it, calling it "enormous, nasty, [and] glorious," which frankly makes us wish we were a Zeppelin reunion show. You know, between this and the My Bloody Valentine reunion next year, we're thinking of moving to London; anyone got a couch we can crash on for, like, ever? Anyhow, Stereogum's got a full set list and some brief video clips from last night's show, 10 Zen Monkeys has a rundown of the Zep ethos (the less said about the mudfish, the better) -- and we've got a question:
How many of y'all done it to Zeppelin? We feel like "Zep IV" is one of the great doing-it records of all time. Is that true? Not that we've used it ourselves, you understand. Whenever we do it to music, we find ourselves adopting the beat, and then we start to wonder what beat that is, and then we wish we'd had drum lessons when we were young, and then we wish we'd done anything constructive with our youth, and then we're all like "this isn't sexy, this is pitiful" and we turn off the music and get back to business.
But you guys probably don't have such wack OCD-type issues, right? So? Zep? Doing it? Music? Thoughts? Other candidates?
