Live Classic Rock at the Ziegfeld!

For any classic rock fans around the NYC area, the Ziegfeld Theatre is holding an entire week of live concert footage & old school movies. Being a die hard Zeppelin fan, I HAD to go to see The Song Remains the Same tonight because of the theatre's extraordinary acoustics. Although I own this dvd (and watch it religiously), it was worth every cent because of how amazing the sound was. The schedule for the week is as followed:

5/1 - Shine a Light (Mick Jagger, Keith Richards) 5:30 pm
Tommy (Oliver Reed, Ann-Margret) 8:00 pm

5/2 - The Last Waltz (Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell) 8:00 pm
Led Zeppelin The Song Remains the Same 5:30 pm

5/3 - U2 3D (Bono, Adam Clayton) 5:30 pm
Stop Making Sense (Alex Weir, Tina Weymouth) 8:00 pm

5/5 - Yellow Submarine (The Beatles, Paul Angelis) 8:00 pm

5/6 - The Beatles: The Lost Concert 2:00 pm, 7:30 pm

This is such a great opportunity! If I lived in the city, you better believe I'd be going to see EVERY MOVIE and rock out the entire time! For anyone who has never been to the Ziegfeld, it is the last operating movie "palace" in Manhattan and it is absolutely beautiful inside. Here are some pictures of the space!


This is my favorite part of The Song Remains the Same. The live concert footage of "Since I've Been Loving You" from the Garden in 1976. Jimmy Page shreds so hard in this song ... I don't think he's human.
