 MsJunerose70 I don't know if this is allowed, but here is a review... A crowd of 70,000 paid between $10-$12 apiece for the opportunity to see Led Zeppelin, arguably the world’s biggest rock band at the time, perform at the open-air Tampa Stadium. The gates had opened around noon, and, so far, there had been no major incidents. The enormous mass of fans eagerly anticipated the guitar wizardry of Jimmy Page, the wailing vocal of Robert Plant, and the inevitable Bonzo drum solo. The band took the stage at about 8:15. However, anyone that has lived in Tampa will tell you: rain is unavoidable in the summer months Eleven minutes after the show began, it started to rain. The band, fearing what might happen to their electrical equipment in the thunderstorm, left the stage. The storm passed shortly after it started, but Led Zeppelin did not return to the stage. When an announcement was made that the band would not be coming back, angry concert goers on the field stormed the stage. The police guarding the stage were not prepared for the onslaught of 4000 angry rock fans.Eventually, other officers were called in with tear gas to break up the mob. There are conflicting opinions about whether the use of such tactics was justifiable, or if the incident could truly be labeled a riot. In the end, thirty-five fans and nine police officers were treated for injuries and twenty arrests were made. Fans were assured that there would be a “raincheck” concert, and that the incident would not affect future shows at Tampa Stadium. Both of these statements turned out to be false. Led Zeppelin never returned to Tampa, and there were no more concerts at Tampa Stadium Led Zeppelin Mar 10, 2022
 MsJunerose70 Actually the concert was one day, not 3 times... and it was a mess! So disappointing! An ominous rain cloud over head, So much rain. A lot of lightning and loud thunder! flooding the interior of the stadium. it was hard to get out of there pushing and shoving! It got violent, even some friends of ours were badly hear, on was stabbed in the neck. There was no reason for the violence.. I can't believe people were expecting the group to play during a bad storm like that! Led Zeppelin Mar 10, 2022

 James Lamm This show was one of the last I attended before my foot had to be amputated. The show was memorable for several reasons. Symphony Hall had not precooled the space so it was hot as shit. Second, the girl guitar player was in the band. Third, he had draped coffin curtains in memory of the musicians who had recently died. One was for Lenny of Motorhead. fFourth HR brought his 85 year old friend to see his first rock concert. He did not enjoy it. Alice Cooper Mar 09, 2022
 James Lamm Under My Wheels was one of my all time favorites. Alice Cooper Mar 09, 2022
 James Lamm This is the show where he chopped off Britany Spears head. The Tabernacle is a more intimate venue than most in Atlanta. We were able to be closer to his show. When we left, Chuck Hunt accidently drove us the wrong way on Ralph McGill. He always stopped at the Krispy Kreme. Another memorable show and night.. Alice Cooper Mar 09, 2022
 James Lamm I went with Janie as a date to this show. I vividly remember "Hello Hooray'and his new hit "Posion". "Under My Wheels was one of my favorite songs so that was a big treat. The parking lot was dark and Janie surprised me by getting under my wheel. It was a memorable night. Alice Cooper Mar 09, 2022
 romandiamond619 What a great way to start a show in a great venue. "Procession" and then "now I'm here" we didn't really know who queen was and they blew us away. Loved the Aragon. By the way tickets for the show only cost 6$. Mahogany Rush also played that night. Queen / Mahogany Rush / Kansas Mar 09, 2022
