    This band is a great club band. I saw them twice in SC back in 1990 and they rocked the house down. DZ was great in person and no video does them justice. One thing is for sure, they knew all of the licks and played them extremely well. You would be laughing and rockin' at the same time. I've never seen another band like them since.

    They played a club on the south side of the University of Arizona campus on a regular basis starting in the late 80's. Saw them go from having a small crowds to very large crowds as the CDs took off. It was a always GREAT show - extremely talented musicians, great music and fun! Everybody had a good time at a Dread Zeppelin concert.

    I saw these guys at the Empire Ballroom in Cleveland in 1990. By far the best "show" I've ever seen. These guys were one of the most inventive novelty acts around, knew it, played right into it instead of acting serious, the musicianship was incredible, and just the fun they had doing what they did made it a great show. I also remember reading somewhere that Robert Plant and Jimmy Page loved these guys, said most of Led's music was based on reggae anyway.
    I've been to a million concerts and I'll never forget this one. Thanks Dread Zeppelin!
