FLASHBACK: Cyndy Drue Attends Celebration Day Press Conference
Led Zeppelin will stream their concert film Celebration Day on Saturday May 30 2020 at 3 pm ET. The screening will be free on Led Zeppelin’s youtube channel.
The concert was staged at the O2 Arena in London in 2007. It raised money for Atlantic Records’ chief Ahmet Ertegun‘s Education Fund. It was the third time the three remaining members of Led Zeppelin played live since the death of John Bonham in 1980. John Bonham’s son Jason played drums at this gig. Later, in 2012, the concert was released as a film / DVD.
The other Led Zeppelin reunion shows were Live Aid in 1985 and at Atlantic Record’s 40th Anniversary in 1988.
I attended the Press Conference in 2012 to announce the concert film’s release.
In this segment, Robert Plant talks about coming back together as a band to play live that day in 2007.
