A tribute band known as "Led Zeppelin 2" will be playing the Chicago
House of Blues on February 27. Details and tickets available through
the website above. Although it says 10-12 bucks for tickets, be aware
that after the TicketBastard inconvenience fees, building charges, and
order processing fees, two tickets cost about $42 - I just bought
mine.
I didn't do that much research on these guys other than finding out
that the guitarist doesn't match our own Steve Z in Page-prowess - but
until Led Zepagain comes to Chicago, this is what I've got!
Oh well - seems like it'll make for a fun night anyway. Maybe if
anyone wants to meet up at the show or afterward for a drink or two
with my fiancee Laura and I, we could do that.
As for the band, here's what I've been able to find:

Jim DeRogatis of The Chicago Sun-Times says:
"... Bruce Lamont, Paul Kamp (of Yakuza and Busker Soundcheck fame,
respectively) and the killer rhythm section of Ian Lee and Chris Klein
bill themselves as Zep2, and they do as good a Zep
as Zep ever did back in the day."
LED ZEPPELIN 2 - THE LIVE EXPERIENCE brings you the excitement of Led
Zeppelin "In Concert" by re-enacting the live improvisation &
experimentation that Zeppelin would do while performing.
Rather than a "greatest hits" show, you get to experience Zeppelin as
Zeppelin would have played in front of an audience.
Catch Led Zeppelin 2 at The House of Blues Chicago on Friday Feb. 27th
- Tickets on Sale 01-16-09.
