Topic: 2012 celebration day

I had not seen this till today. OMG!!! At first plants voice is a bit well cold,,but my god once he warmed up and Page and Jones just Jamming their buts off! Jason does a very respectable job filling in for his dad.

This is a must watch if you have not seen it.  I just wish THE WHO would sound this good live nowdays.

Re: 2012 celebration day

Beamer ... I agree that the "Celebration Day" performance is one of the greatest reunion concerts of this century!

As you mentioned Plant's voice, it's consistent that most singers with a high upper register lose some of it with age. Roger Daltry, Ian Gillan, Ian Anderson ... the list goes on. Jason's drumming is very good, although not as smooth as his dad's was. The real treat for me was watching John Paul Johns with his bass licks; I never truly realized just how exceptional he is. And Page ... well, he is still Jimmy Page!
