On December 10, 2007, LED ZEPPELIN headlined a tribute concert for their good friend and Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun. All who attended this very special performance, witnessed a two-hour-plus concert full of signature blues-infused Rock N' Roll that instantly became part of the bands extensive history. Although 20 million people applied for tickets, the band's first headline show in 27 years was seen only by the 18,000 ticket holders! This is when "Celebration Day", the NEW LED ZEPPELIN concert movie, was born.
Recently, the film made its U.S. debut at the historic Ziegfeld Theater in New York's theater district on October 9. Prior to the premiere, founding members John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page, and Robert Plant were joined by Jason Bonham, the son of their late drummer John Bonham, for a press conference at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Footage available HERE!
