• Rainbow
• Black Dog (Led Zeppelin song)
• The Rain Song (Led Zeppelin song)
• No Place to Go / Dazed and Confused (Led Zeppelin song)
• Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You (Joan Baez cover/Led Zeppelin song)
• Little Maggie ([traditional] cover)
• Fixin' to Die (Bukka White cover)
• Whole Lotta Love / You Can't Judge a Book by It's Cover
• Rock and Roll (Led Zeppelin song)
• Going to California (Led Zeppelin song)

Admittedly, he wasn't promoting a new album, but there was a lot of Zeppelin classics played

That sounds pretty good
If he plays Black Dog and/or Whole Lotta Love she'll be happy. My stepdad saw Zeppelin live back in the day and I know he'd prefer to hear more current stuff because it's not the real band.

Don't know if it affects any here, but apparently Lady Gaga has postponed her European tour

She hopes to reschedule the dates at a later time

I was going to go to the Manchester concert but the ticket prices were just over the top.
I hope she feels better soon though, it sounds nasty the condition that she's suffering from.

My other half may have something similar to that, she's suffered with severe back and hip pain for 18 months now and still hasn't got a diagnosis, she can barely walk without the use of two crutches, has to go up stairs on all fours and hasn't been able to work (she's a care worker for the disabled ironically) since June. Hopefully the MRI scan she's due to have soon will finally reveal what the problem is because her GP and various specialists at the hospital haven't a clue.

That sounds awful, I presume they have already ruled out Sciatica. I hope it's something easily treatable once they know what it is.

I'd like to see her, but after Alice Cooper in Nov i'm not going to another Arena concert ever...

I truly didn't mind Shania Twain back in the day. (Better than Nu-metal thought i) However after seeing her live on the red button service at Hyde Park at the weekend, i can say she's the most boring live performer.

All she did was stand on one spot, marked with a square, and slowly move back and forth. She had absolutely no energy and it all felt lifeless.
