Concert review The Led Zepplin Experience with Jason Bonham
There are some moments in music you will never forget. One that I recall vividly was the first time I heard Led Zepplin IV with my best friend. From the moment I heard "Hey hey mama" in "Black Dog" I was blown away. These guys were hard, they had great drums, an amazing singer, a great bassist and some of the best guitar riffs I had ever heard…

If you've seen any of the concert reviews I've done in the past you would know that music is one of the things I love. I try to see as many shows as possible, and am constantly mixing up my musical genres. One day you will catch me listening to Alice In Chains, the next day I'll be listening to Toby Keith and the day after that I'll throw on some techno. Of all of the bands I've listened to, Guns N' Roses has probably received the most airplay on my home stereo (I have all of their albums, but Appetite For Destruction has definitely gotten the most airplay)…

I was floored by the music I was hearing, especially "Hells Bells", "Givin The Dog A Bone" and my personal all time favorite AC/DC tune, "Back In Black." Well, I was fortunate enough to get to see AC/DC perform live this week, and what an AMAZING experience! The band came out in their typical attire (Brian Johnson in a cutoff shirt, Angus Young in his well known shorts and tie, etc.), and they sounded clear, focused and energized from the minute they started playing their instruments! The opening song "Rock N' Roll Train" sounded amazing, and their stage presence absolutely floored me (Angus still has his classic kick and strut!)…

Last year I did a number of concert reviews, but not nearly as many as I would have liked to. This year I plan to review 2 - 4 shows per month, and the acts will range from small local bands to large national headliners. I am also hoping to get peoples feedback from the shows, and take pictures if the venue allows them. So to start off 2009, I thought I would share my experiences from the Drivin' N Cryin' show I attended a few weeks back…
