Day two of my Crimson Rocks bucket checklist journey journey was the most effective of the 2. The climate was fantastic, and this time I had a go to shoot from the picture pit. Plus, there have been 2 nice bands, Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Night, and Gov’t Mule doing their very own music in addition to a set of Pink Floyd songs.
Bonham’s band opened the present performing their Led Zeppelin Night.
I used to be lucky to see Led Zeppelin a number of occasions within the 70s, they usually positively cemented a spot in my reminiscence as one of many best bands of all time. Jason Bonham’s band is superb, they usually sound nearer to the unique Led Zeppelin than any tribute band ever may.
Vocalist James Dylan sounds very very similar to Robert Plant.
He sings with emotion and may be very animated on stage.
Guitarist Jimmy Sakurai mimicks Jimmy Web page completely,
and even kinda seems to be like Web page used to look from a distance.
Bassist Dorian Heartsong does an important job with the low notes.
Jason Bonham, son of Led Zeppelin’s John Bonham (R.I.P.), hits laborious, and tells tales all through the present about rising up along with his well-known dad in England. He talked about that Zeppelin was far more well-known within the states than they had been again residence.
The band got here out on stage to a LZ recorded “Within the Mild,”
after which opened the set with “Good Instances, Dangerous Instances.”
Following this traditional rocker, the band performed: “The Ocean,”
“Over the Hills and Far Away,” “Ramble On,” “What Is and What Ought to By no means Be,”
The sold-out crowd was very enthusiastic all through the set, and I am positive each particular person there would agree with me that I may have listened to this improbable band all evening lengthy.
Each music was performed to close perfection so it was form of like a blast from the previous for me. In the event you ever get an opportunity to see this nice tribute to the historic Led Zeppelin, seize your tickets quick because it’s positive to promote out!!!
Crimson Rocks is a novel venue set within the mountains of Morrison, Colorado, a couple of half hour from Denver. I extremely suggest that you simply add this superb live performance amphitheatre to your bucket checklist! Make sure you try the dinosaur museum and Dinosaur Ridge just some miles away as properly.
