Mala cum salaam. Thank you very much. Good evening. Hello, welcome, and sorry about the delay, but the treacherous conditions on the road. There's snow storms back in Hollywood. ah What we intend to do tonight, was anybody here last night? You mean you could sleep after all that? ah We intend to cut, take a lemon with a knife, and slice it all the way through, and you get the bitter sweet changes of taste, right? We're gonna give you changes of taste of the music that we've written in the last six and a half years. Total changes, and we want you to come with us on this little journey, right? And it starts, the road starts with questioning, and it starts like this.

Thank you. Good evening. Right, let's keep it nice and warm. I should have put the other shirt on. I always got a choice or two. It might have come to your attention in the last week we finally got an album out, Physical Grafitti, which apparently is doing quite well. So we'd like to thank you for your help and sort of constant support, genuinely. No Crap. We're gonna do some of the things from that tonight, and as you'll realize, that's quite a varied bag. This is the first one that comes from time immemorial.

Thank you. That was ah, that was an old work song actually a long time, a long time before Mr. Zimmerman listened to it down in the village back in the nineteen sixties. This next piece, and I'm gonna call em pieces now. I used to call them numbers, but that's when you're in Vegas. The next piece is ah, something that came to us after a lot of travelling, a lot of journeys. In fact, when you boil it down, nearly everything is inspired by emotion and motivation, and movement. This one was around the world in such wonderous places as Bombay, and Calcutta, and Taiwan. I don't know, all those places where you shouldn't be. It's called The Song Remains the Same.

It is the summer of my smiles, indeed. The gentleman who motivated the orchestra then Mr. John Paul Jones. That was a love song. I think Tennessee Williams is gonna do it nextThis is another um, featuring mellotron, another piece. This is one about ah, I don't know who we should dedicate this to. To anybody who got divorced today. It's called Kashmir.

Good evening. Your reactions are a bit slow, a bit lethargic. Good evening. What a lot of strange noises, act nice and pleasant. Perhaps it's the bird of paradise somewhere out there. This next ah, what were we calling them, piece features once again the dynamically subtle fingers of John Paul Jones. He's becomming quite, next to Liberace, he's becomming quite a name in the keyboard world. This is a thing, a serious thing, called No Quarter.

Well that was thouroughly enjoyable. Better than a good chick almost. Right, this is a, uh, what am I talking about, this is um, another track off um, from Physical Grafitti. ah This is a track that has many references to the automobile, which, of course, it's got nothing to do with. It's called Trampled Underfoot. Trampled under Jimmy's foot.

Regardless of experience, we thought that we could bring you this spectacle two nights in a row. Regardless of the price of black beautys. Ladies and gentlemen, because we're not no longer boys and girls, are we? The man with two cavities, John Bonham. Moby Dick.

John Bonham. Bonzo Bonham. Moby Dick. Take a bow John. John Bonham. Moby Dick. ah We've got to dedicate this one to a friend who isn't here. That makes good sense ah, this is something that came ah, at the very beginning. It was the first climax that we reached together, as a foursome. We dedicate this to Row Harper, a very good friend of ours. Wherever you are Roy, don't stay in that state too long.

Jimmy Page guitar. This ah, what are we calling them, pieces or numbers? This ah, this next piece is ah, stage right, Howlin Wolf, this next pieis, I think the vibes are really good tonight, a bit better than last night. Too many reds, by the time we get to the Forum we should be sky high. So without further schmaltz, I suppose it's for you really. Here we come.

Ladies and gentlemen of Long Beach, thank you very much. Thanks a lot. It's been a nice one. Good night. Good evening. Good evening. We'd like to dedicate this song to a very good friend of ours who's birthday it is today. To Steve Weis. Let's have a little Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Steven, happy birthday to you. Steve Weis, many happy returns and a day.

Thank you. Good evening. I said Good evening.

Thank you very much. A bicycle clip was caught in our sock. Good night.
