      Actually he did slightly miss that note. And it delayed him by about a full beat. Doesn't really matter though, he got through it just fine. You can tell that he's really irritated though, and rightfully so - that solo is very rewarding to play and getting interrupted right at the first juicy part - when you have an engaged audience - yeah that would piss me off too.

He played Kashmir, then I asked him if he could play a Chili Peppers tune and he played My Friends while I sang with another girl. Probably the best moment of my life. He later continued to play Stairway and man... he could almost match Page on that solo. Definitely keep an eye out for him in Rome because this guy is something special!
