If you're talking about a televised concert (Pay-Per-View or whatever), that
would be great.  But remember, the last Page/Plant album was based off a
video very similar to "The Dance".  I think "The Dance" (as well as the
Eagles' "Hell Freezes Over" album that was released around the same time as
NQ) was more commercially successful was because it's much more easily
accessible than "No Quarter" ever was.  Fleetwood Mac running through old
classics and writing some new songs is very different than Page and Plant
doing the same.  Nothing against Fleetwood Mac, the style of music is just
very different than what P/P were trying to achieve.
