At least at Zeppelin tribute shows, you don't get drunk-ass yuppies and overgrown frat boys dancing around and singing along to the music!

I can't imagine what you're talking about.  Zeppelin is one of the main staples of classic rock, which in turn is the basic musical fodder for a whole generation of yuppies and overgrown fratboys.  Who else would go to a Zeppelin tribute?<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial, Veranda">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Celeste:<BR><B>At least at Zeppelin tribute shows, you don't get drunk-ass yuppies and overgrown frat boys dancing around and singing along to the music! </B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>

anybody ever see Dread Zepplin - the Reggae Zepplin tribute band with a Elvis clone on vocals. Now they were a frat boy band!
