LED ZEPPELIN PLAYED HERE
In person: filmmaker Jeff Krulik 
Tickets $5!
1969. Man lands on the moon. Half a million strong at Woodstock.  SESAME STREET 
makes its debut...and Led Zeppelin performs in  the gym of the Wheaton Youth 
Center on Georgia Avenue in front of 50 confused teenagers. Or did they? 
Filmmaker Jeff Krulik (HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT) offers a preview screening of 
his take on an enduring local legend, exactly 44 years from the day it was 
alleged to have taken place: January 20, 1969, during the inauguration of 
president Richard Nixon. Krulik's documentary presents a homegrown version of 
what was happening nationwide as the rock concert industry took shape, 
featuring interviews with rock writers, musicians and fans, including several 
who claim they were there witnessing history that night, plus a look at one of 
the most amazing collections of Led Zeppelin memorabilia ever.
