Whole Lotta Love For Led Zeppelin @ HiFi Lounge on March 8th!
Hi Everyone,
From the start I should come clean and admit that I am not the biggest Led Zeppelin fan but after the success of our Bruce Springsteen day last year one of my customers suggested why not do something similar for Led Zeppelin as he is a big fan, obviously I am well aware that in rock terms they don’t come much bigger than Led Zeppelin so I thought why not, who knows by the end of the day I may have seen the light and been converted to all things Led Zeppelin
What is going to make this day even more special is the attendance of Dave Lewis, author of many books about the band, and editor and publisher of the long running Led Zeppelin magazine Tight But Loose (www.tightbutloose.co.uk). Dave will be on hand to chat about his chronicling of the band’s work and to deliver a specially prepared presentation - “Celebrating 70 Years of Jimmy Page”. Coinciding with Jimmy’s 70th birthday year, playing selections from all stages of Jimmy’s career from his formative and extensive session playing in the 60s through the Yardbirds and Zeppelin eras and beyond. All played on some of the finest audio equipment available today.
I would ask if you are thinking of coming along to please just send me a quick e-mail to paul@hifilounge.co.uk as everyone I speak to seems to be quite keen to come along to this open day so it may get a little cosy, it will just be nice to have a rough idea on numbers, thanks.
In our main demo room We will be running our Naim system which comprises of the NAC 252 Pre-amplifier, NAP 300 Power Amplifier, SuperCap, NDS Streamer with 555PS Power Supply along with the Rega RP8 turntable all played through the awesome PMC MB2i speakers. We will also have our new JVC X500 projector running showing concert footage of Led Zeppelin gigs, so plenty to keep everyone entertained. In other rooms we will also be having Led Zeppelin music playing through various systems.
If you have any Led Zeppelin material you’d like to bring along please feel free, I’m sure Dave will be bringing plenty along but anything else will be welcome.
We will be starting around 9am with presentations throughout the day, Dave will be putting together a timetable over the next few days so as soon as I have that I will publish it on the page so please check back soon.
We will also have refreshments throughout the day so please feel free to come along and help us celebrate all things Led Zeppelin at HiFi Lounge which promises to be a whole lotta fun.
Thanks,
Paul.
