Quiet....i do not listen to recorded music and the peace and quiet of not having it droning in the background of life is welcome to me. I was in the recording business as recording engineer/producers and major studio owner most of my life so I have no stereo by choice.
I listen to live music almost daily however and have a wide choice of classical, opera, rock, blues, Latin, Middle Eastern, folk, bard, Chanson, jazz every night in jazz clubs, classical concert halls, rock clubs or even some very good street bands. I find I appreciate a live performance more when I am not saturated with music throughout the day. About the only recorded music, I listen to is dance music while in some of my frequent haunts of local dance clubs. That is about my only real form or aerobic exercise on the dance floor with hours of non-stop, no break dancing. I dance until 6 a.m. about 1 time a week. Otherwise walking in the city 10km or more every day going about my normal activities is the norm. I don't have a car here, my only car left is in storage in California, a restored 1974 Bora Maserati 5ltr mid-engine GT I have only driven once since moving to St Petersburg 19 years ago. My GF is of a similar view, we attend opera and classical together often but she does not like most popular music and never goes to the dance clubs with me. She will go to jazz performances occasionally.
Many of my friends are musicians or singers however and most of my many friends here are a lot younger since I was always in the youth culture, my GF at 36 is the oldest person I have regular contact with and I am 69.

watched this alot over the past few weeks (100 plus times easy)

My wife loves this vid, and has probably watched it as much as you.

I'm a big fan of Zep and Heart both. I never got to see Zep in concert, but caught Heart a couple of times in the US and UK. Their version of Zep's "Rock and Roll" is still the gold standard in covers.

A little side note about the clip you posted. As you know, the drummer here is Jason Bonham, son of Zep's original drummer John Bonham. Not long ago Jimmy Page attended a concert by a group that many are calling the best rock group on the planet right now: "Band-Maid". Of all things, they are 5 young ladies from Japan who dress as maids but rock like crazy. After the show Jimmy said in an interview that he was blown away, and that their drummers "is the reincarnation of John Bonham". He made it a point to go backstage after the show and get a picture with her for his Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/jimmypagenews/st...264449?lang=en

When the lead guitarist of Led Zeppelin says he's a fan of your group, you know you're really rockin'. Here's a sample:

Just a stab in the dark here: drinking problem?

NO, at the time non US citizens had to renew their license every six months. Don't know if that's still the case since I've been retired over ten years now.

BTW, he was with Journey at that time.

Oh! I'm relieved to hear that. I had no idea that was a rule. Thanks!

This band (In Paradise) is new to me. Someone on Facebook posted a video using one of their songs as the background music. I was intrigued and listened to some of their other songs. Although they don't have many songs, this group has potential.

This isn't music but is informative for those who like to create Instagram Reels. Rob Hall tends to create a number of Godox videos - mostly for sharing helpful knowledge. But when delving into how to make money doing a certain type of reel, he began to generate an income actually rather easily.
