    Yep, it was awful. It was Page's 1st attempt out on stage since Bonzo's death. Clapton begged him to be a part of it to get him out of his funk, so to speak. It's just an awful concert, Tony Thompson is just awful as well.

    I saw again about 5-6 years ago and realized how bad it was.

Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.
