The Music of Led Zeppelin

One of the very best concerts I've been to in a long time. Randy Jackson, the orchestra and the entire event was amazing. Would definitely go again and again.

This is the 2nd time I've seen this show. Once in St. Petersburg, Fl & now Daytona. Randy was great, as always! George is outstanding & Allegra's talent has given me a whole new outlook on the electric violin. Brent & the orchestra gave stellar performance. Thank you for sharing with us!

To say this show was incredible is an understatement! I have not heard Randy Jackson's voice in many years and it had not faded even a bit. He hits notes that Robert Plant surely can no longer hit. The orchestral accompaniment was outstanding. The venue was very nice and convenient. Adult beverages were reasonably priced for a venue. ($5 beer, $7 mixed drinks) . I highly recommend this show and venue to anyone thinking of going. Oh, and they also offered sit down food if you had not already eaten.

Took my 8 year old daughter who is a fan and loved every minute of the show! Musicianship, song selection, all a hit. Great evening!

Completely blew me away! I was unsure what to expect but musically it was bang on, vocally amazing and the orchestra was superb! A great laid back atmosphere with all ages there. Would go again in a heartbeat! Not just for Zepplin fans but awesome if you are!!!!

The show was am absolute pleasure. Great vocals,exceptionally good lead, drummimg, the well Led orchestra.... I saw this show 2 years ago at Rama also and eagerly waited their return. Randy Jackson puts on a good show, and also does a fine job on the 12 string.

We went to see the Music of Led Zepplin not knowing what to expect. We were very pleasantly suprised that this group of musicians could sound so close to the original band.

We were pleasantly surprised. I bought the tickets for my husband, being he was/is a huge Zeppelin fan from way back. Me, not so much. HAHA. The mix of orchestra and rock band was amazing. We will be talking about this show for some time. Thanks so much to Randy Jackson(Zebra) and Brent Havens (conductor).

I didnt know what to expect so i went alone . it turns out i now love symohonys. or at least this one.. even if you dont like zepplin, (thats imposible) you must see this show. the symohony is so amazing it brings out more zepplin then i knew exsisted ...it fillsthe room withexcitement like nothing you ever heard before...

No Regrets! Hometown symphony orchestra playing the music of Led Zeppelin. Amplified by a full rock band and accompanied by singer Randy Jackson s great vocals.

It was a really good show. Musicians were fantastic and the MSO back up was superb. It was well worth seeing and I would attend again if they are back. I'm, always a little leery of cover bands, but they did an exceptional job of capturing the spirit of the original artists.

Incredibly AWESOME-didn't want the concert to end! Once it did, would have sat through it again!

We had so much fun! What an enjoyable evening out. We feasted on Oyster's at Jolie's before the concert. Eased our way into the Theater, sat back...no WE sang, waved our arms in the arms, clapped, cheered, standing ovations!!! It was a blast! Then later as we old our friends about how great it was, they kept saying "We thought about going", it was clear they wished they had. We would go again in a minute. Thank you for the experience we loved it!!!

This concert was awesome!! Better than many headliners I have seen over the years.

OK, it wasn't Robert and Jimmy, but very close. The lead singer did a great job of capturing Robert's voice frequencies and inflections. I closed my eyes several times and just listened and it was Robert on stage. His presentation of Stairway to Heaven brought tears to my eyes. Jimmy would have been proud of the lead guitar player. He was amazing, his playing in Heartbreaker was impeccable ... wow! The drummer's solo in Mobby Dick was in my opinion better than the original, he was impressive!!!!!!. And of course the BTR Symphony members were awesome. They added so much to the entire presentation. Their interpretation of the original organ to strings and brass for this presentation was pure genius. And of course their always present performance enthusiasm and professionalism was exhilarating.

Zeppelin songs are great on their own - I never did see them in person - but have a great sound system. But add a symphony behind them!!! Genius. It would have been nice if people would not yell for Randy Jackson to sing Zebra songs.

We've seen this performance twice & loved it just as much the second time!!!

Excellent as usual -- I hope they do this event again in New Orleans soon...

this performance exceeded what I thought was going to take place. Not only was there an orchestra and a singer but also a bass guitar, lead guitar, acoustic guitar, and a drummer. this is as close to seeing zeppelin as you can get these days. this is how their music was meant to be played. I wondered after if zeppelin toured with a full orchestra. the vocals, while really good, just proved how GREAT Robert Plant was. Kudos to Randy Jackson as he knew exactly what his capabilities were and did not try to match Plant's high notes but rather worked his style in. the orchestra was fantastic. I cannot say anything but WOW. it was awesome

I enjoyed this show in 2006 in New Orleans so much that when he came back to the area in 2016, I knew I had to go again! Randy Jackson does an amazing job of singing Robert Plant; the guitarist, bassist and drummer are great; and the guest conductor is very personable and entertaining. The Baton Rouge Symphony did a fantastic job with the music. Everyone I know agreed that Randy Jackson is a phenomenally talented singer. We even got a taste of his excellent skills with an acoustic 12-string during a couple of songs. They even had a local DJ guest conduct for one song. If you love Led Zeppelin, this is a must see show!

It was great! They played all the favorites and got the audience involved. Randy Jackson was wonderful. We will definitely go again!

Great concept but....the "rock band" was totally overwhelmed by the Orchestra. We heard that feeling expressed by many in attendance. It was a good experience, but the potential for it to have been much, much, better leaves us a bit disappointed.

These guys were fantastic. If you're a fan of Zeppelin but never got to see them you will love this.

If I were "grading" this performance I'd give it a C+ The orchestra itself was good-- the lead guitar, lead violinist, and drummer were very good. The vocals were weak in my opinion. Then again, how do you find someone who carries the range of Robert Plant? Had I known how this production was to play out I would have rather saved my $117.00 for the 2 tickets. That said I would still recommend others attend this program because the music of Led Zeppelin deserves to be acknowledged considering the impact of their music during their tenure. I would let my "referrals" not to expect the voice of Robert Plant, but Randy Jackson does his best to pull it off.

This was the best show I have been to in a long time. This group nailed it-the singer hit every note, and both the band and symphony were amazing. If you are a Zeppelin fan, you have to check out this show!

When I initially got to the performance, I started laughing uncontrollably at the Robert Plant impersonator. After getting over my giggle fit, you couldn't help but notice how rockin of a show you were at! The symphony rocked, the audience was enthusiastic and the chops on the lead singer (aka. Robert Plant impersonator) were outstanding. I was probably on the younger end of attendees, (I'm 30) but was so impressed with the overall experience. I only wish that I could say that this was my generation of music, instead I have Spice Girls...what a drag!

Most of the people enjoyed it. It wasn't bad but since I had seen the *real* led Zeppelin this was pale in comparison. he lead singer should have his hair more to the color of Robert Plant way back when. Brown hair doesn't cut it.

The show and music was outstanding. Will go again in a heartbeat!

The combination of an orchestra and a "legends" band was incredible ... Two hours flew by!! Great concert.

I was a little less than underwhelmed at the Music of Led Zeppelin concert at the Peabody. The orchestra, the drummer, & the bass player were excellent, however, the lead singer and lead guitar player where average at best. One would think after playing this gig for several years they would "have it down".....(or perhaps they've lost their enthusiasm). In comparison, the "Classic Albums Live" team does a much better Zeppelin tribute on an overall basis.

Event was exactly what my boyfriend and I expected, plus more. The Orchestra played beautifully and the tribute to Led Zeppelin was spot on. The only con would be that the concessions sold alcohol, soda, and bags of chips or cookies. Would have been better if there was more of a variety during the intermission; maybe hotdogs, burgers, etc. Overall, we had a great time and that's what counts!

The music overall was excellent and the soloists really shined... Randy Jackson showed us how difficult it is to emulate Robert Plant... He was really on it about 80 percent of the performance and a bit off about 20 percent... He was really off on the first song and I thought we were in trouble... He was brilliant at times as well... I would like to have seen more creativity in the lighting or at least more variety... A Good Led Zeppelin fix!

Brought my 16-year old son, who listens to my old Led Zeppelin discs often, to this show not knowing what to expect or how he would enjoy it and was pleasantly blown away. The entire show was well put together, engaging the audience to sing along and really get into the music. The solos were amazing, and my hat is off to the conductor for putting together a very seamless production - I was left wanting the show to go for another hour!

Of all the Led Zep tribute bands out there on tour, this is perhaps the most unique. But much of Zep's music had some heavy orchestral overtones, so this really wasn't quite such a stretch. Launching the show was "Good Times, Bad Times," the first song on their debut album. This was a great start followed by "Ramble On." The lead for this song is the bass line, but unfortunately, it got covered up by the orchestra. However, the group quickly recovered and moved into many other Zep favorites. "Kashmir" was stunning with the orchestra backing up some powerful vocals by Randy Jackson. I found it a bit odd that after only 35-40 minutes into the show, there was an intermission. But the group came back out and finished with some outstanding selections including "Moby Dick," "Four Sticks" and "The Immigrant Song." A great version of "Going to California" was one of the highlights. Jackson began an acoustic medley including Hangman" and "Thank You" which deftly connected into the start of "Stairway to Heaven," which closed the show. The orchestra was led by an awesome electric violinist by the name of Allegra. Her passion for the music was contagious and the audience caught it. The other members of the band were very good as well. All in all, the show was well worth the price of admission.

Awesome show... Vocals were spot on. Singer was true to the spirit of the music, funny, spontaneous, and hit every note. Not an easy task considering Mr Plant's amazing range. The guitarist was equally amazing. On several songs he was one with his instrument. The drummer proved his skill with a Moby Dick drum solo that left the audience yearning for more. The lady on lead violin could flat out play too. Her contribution to the show was inspired. Last but not least, the orchestra. What a joy to hear Led Zeppelin music in stereophonic glory! disappointed there was no encore. Those in the crowd who remained yearned for one.

It started off a little rough but by the third song it came together beautifully. Robert Plant can't be duplicated but it was close. I loved the symphony. The electric violinist, the lead guitarist and the drummer were incredible.

I loved when we had dualing electric violin and electric guitar. The orchestra was grand. I was especially happy with Kashmir.

I thoroughly enjoyed the music. The orchestra added such a great experience. Would definitely go see it again!

Third time that I've seen the show and as before, it was great. However, the venue for this show was different and well below average for the quality of the performance.

The Music of Led Zeppelin was great. The Acadiana Symphony Orchestra rocks!!! Randy Jackson and other band members were amazing. Overall, concert was wonderful, only complaint was that concert was not two hours long like reviews stated.

Thought the sound production was ok. Heard Randy with another band in Houma, LA in October at the Voice of the Wetlands Festival put on by Tab Benoit and thought he was much better. Sound was much better even though it was an outdoor event. Thought the mix could have been better here being it was indoors. The song choices were good and not a bad show, just would have wished the sound production would have been better.

I've heard this show before and it is fantastic. That's why I bought tickets and recommended the show to my brother and his wife. We were planning a great evening of dinner and music. Dinner was terrific. Then the show started. The performers were fabulous. The sound was awful. I had great seats. The lead guitarist, drummer and singer were so over modulated that you could not hear the orchestra. At some point in the show, the sound evened out and was much better than it was at the start. Then they screwed it up again. I could see bows across strings - but I couldn't hear them over the very talented but way over the top LOUD lead guitar. The sound should have been worked out before the show started. VERY disappointing.

This was the second time we have seen this line up of the Hartford Symphony teamed up with Randy Jackson, the 4 piece rock band with Brent Havens conducting. What a Great show it was with the Music of Led Zeppelin. Hope they can do it again real soon.

Great show and wonderful theater. Seats were very good. Drinks were way overpriced!

Unbelievable set list but what a selection to choose from. Not quite as crisp on the guitar and drums as I would have liked, but the orchestra filled in perfectly. The crowd had trouble figuring out if they were at a rock concert or symphony. Too bad, they ROCKED!

I thoroughly enjoyed this show. It was much more than I expected. This was my first time to Oakdale Theatre and I would definitely go back. I've heard a lot of good things about the theatre and they are all true. The show was fantastic! Worth every penny!

Absolutely amazing!!!!! We would highly recommend this event to anyone!

WE ARE BIG ZEPPLIN FANS BUT NOT BIG ORCHESTRA ONES. THIS COMBO REALLY WORKED! LOVED EVERTHING ABOUT THIS SHOW.

The show was Amazing! The orchestra added to the already awesome music of Led Zeppelin!

Loved this show. The singer was FANTASTIC. He had a voice very similar to Robert Plant. The guitarists were very very good. Drummer - excellent. The symphony was a spectacular addition to the music. The sound was rich and full of energy. LOVED IT !!

The concert was great. The combination of the Hartford Symphony Orchestra with the band was spectacular. This was the first concert we took our 12 year old son to and it will be a hard one to top. The only negative thing that I could possibly comment on is that it was a little short. The concert lasted 2 hours with a 20 minute intermission. It was so good...I just wanted more.

This is the third time in the past 7 years or so that we've been to this concert and while it was still a great show, it wasn't as exciting as the last 2 times. Why? Because the specific violinist from the Hartford Symphony with her electric violin was not there. The interaction between her and Randy Jackson was so great in the past. It also seemed that there were fewer symphony members present? There was a certain pizazz in those last 2 concerts that was lacking this time, although we certainly enjoyed the show anyway. Just a little disappointed by the change.

I was not sure what I would think of anyone performing Led Zeppelin but the original band but, much to my surprise, it was an excellent show. The lead singer is very good and he really complimented the orchestra section. I have to admit that I was very amused by the conductor because his style was just fun to watch. The whole show was entertaining and I would highly recommend it.

Great seats, easy in and out of venue and Stairway to Heaven??? It doesn't get any better than that. Wonderful night!

If you are expecting to hear the symphony save your time and money. The few members of the symphony were completely overpowered by a Zeppelin cover band. This show was not what I expected - huge disappointment for me as both a Zeppelin fan and a symphony fan.

Close intimate venue. The 2 HD video screens were fantastic and certainly added to the enjoyment and ease to watch. Orchestra and band combination made the Zeppelin music experience unique and overall this was some good entertainment.

I enjoyed the vocals of Randy Jackson, as well as the very talented symphony. I heard many wonderful Led Zep tunes! I enjoyed the show and I would definitely recommend this show to any Zep fans.

wasn't sure what to expect. it was great! very neat combination of the band and the orchestra. would def recommend.

The concert was fabulous. The symphony was wonderful, the electric violinist great, George the guitarist was spot-on and the drummer was phenominal! The narrator, lead singer was engaging and sang very good. It was a great night to just sit back and enjoy the sounds and songs of Led Zeppelin. Great show! Nice venue, intimate, yet spacious enough for good sound and the seats were comfy! About an hour and 1/2 show.

Best show that I've seen in a long time. Very enjoyable,

This was an awesome event! I would recommend it to ANYONE looking to "get the Led out!"

If you like Led Zepplin, then this show is for you. It's a live concert of their greatest hits. The singer is pretty spot on and the orchestra makes the music more dynamic. The drummer plays Moby Dick and it completely captivates you. Once again a must see!!!

What an awesome night of music! The symphony was fabulous and Randy Jackson was spot on. My husband and I really enjoyed this night of Led Zeppelin. We are both big fans and their music inspired my husband's musical choices for today. He is a drummer and Powell Randolph blew us away! We will definitely be back if the show comes to Northeast Ohio again.

good time with memorable moments. great crowd and venue. good production. nice job!

This was an awesome evening! I wish it would have went on for hours. Knowing most songs on every Led Zeppelin album, there were so many more I would have loved to hear. I totally recommend seeing this!

I thought I was with the original band. Orchestra awsome.

The performance was terrific! The band was spot on and the symphony was exceptionally good.

My husband, my daughter and myself all attended this concert. We are huge Led Zeppelin fans and love music in general. My husband and daughter are musicians. We loved this show and would see it again! The musicians were all awesome. The Electric Violin player Allegra was just WOW!! I wished it was a longer but 2 hours was a good length of time. I could have just listened for hours!

They covered an extensive array of songs and the guitarist, drummer and singer were just extraordinary

This show was an experience. Everything about it met my expectations. I play music with some guys who said this was a tribute band, however, this is not a tribute band. That would be like saying the S. F. Symphony Orchestra is a tribute band to Mozart. The Silicon Valley Symphonic did just what was advertised. They added feeling and color to the music without overpowering the way the original songs were meant to be played. I had guessed right that they opened with "Good Times, Bad Times" (1st song from the 1st album), went into intermission with Kashmir, and closed the show with an encore of "Immigrant Song" and "Stairway to Heaven". The City National Civic was a very well organized and clean venue. The show was a little over 2 hours; not too long and not too short. No T-Shirts or CDs, however they probably could not afford the royalties to put Zeppelin's name on anything. It does not seem this show is playing at very many venues, so it is an event not to be missed. Again, it was an experience.

It was a very cool experience. Brought my wife and two 15 year old boy/girl twins. Everyone had a GREAT time singing along with all those classic songs. Must see for Led Zeppelin fans!!!

Loved this concert! Unique sound - Led Zeppelin music accompanied by the symphony!

I was not disappointed by the Plant impersonator & the Music was Outstanding!

First and foremost: LOVED the show! Musicians were great...first class all the way. Symphony sounded great, they were very tight and seemed to be having a lot of fun as well! Vocals...we the weak point. Sorry, have to say it. My wife and I went with another couple and we all really enjoyed the show. We all felt the vocals were the weakest part of it. Me more than the rest, as all of us thought the high notes were just a little off and almost squeaky. I was the only one that thought the vocals lacked feeling and emotion. When he was singing in a lower range he was MUCH better. Basically 16 songs, 2 of which were actually melodies of three songs each. Very well done, some that we did not expect to hear. Guitarist, George Citron, was GREAT, really rocked it out. George and Allegra playing together in the lead guitar of Stairway was great!

While we love the Silicon Valley Symphony - this was certainly a different event for them. Wow - what a show! We totally loved it and hope the symphony does more of this unusual type of concert. The singer was dead on - felt like we were truly at a LZ concert! Highly recommend this show to everyone - little bit of symphony and little bit of rock!

The Symphony Silicon Valley backed up the Windborne core of guitarist George Cintron, bassist Dan Clemens, percussionist Powell Randolf, violinist Allegra, and vocalist Randy Jackson. The conductor who filled in was excellent (forgot his name) and he and the Symphony Silicon Valley stopped the show for several standing ovations. They played from every album I could remember, and all the songs were note perfect. All members of Led Zeppelin were represented well, including the wonderful addition of violinist Allegra. It seemed like everyone on stage, including the Symphony, had a great time!

I was skeptical but tix were inexpensive so we took a chance. The singer was not Robert Plant but he had a lot of energy and enthusiasm. Guitar player was hot!!!! Drummer was good....and the symphony was really into it! Lots of fun to watch and listen to great songs. Song selection unexpected in a good way. My wife and I had a very nice night.

Great show! Nice to hear Led Zeppelin music with an orchestra. Great to see George Cintron at guiter. He was awesome! And whoever that drummer was.... he did an amazing drum solo with "Moby Dick" Glad I finally got to see this amazing show after all these years..........

loved the show !!! Randy Jackson and George Cintron Rocked - Dan was awesome on Bass - Powell Randolph's Moby Dick Solo was the Best !! Alegra on Electric Violin was unbelievable !!! Great to see her trade licks with George's guitar solo's !! The score did not diminish the Power of LZ - Good job to Brent Haven conductor !! the Windborne Symphony Rocked !! I hope they come back and do and Outdoor show - Maybe Bald Hill again ??!!

Went to the show not really knowing what to expect... thought it would be a random Led Zeppelin tribute band... but was very surprised! There was a band that circled a complete orchestra and they were fantastic. They sounded so good.. The vocals, guitar, electric violin and drums were amazing... lots of talented musicians. The had the whole audience rocking out.... absolutely loved it!!!!!!

Great show, enjoyed it very much. Music and singing was great.

RANDY , GEORGE AND ALL THE ORCHESTRA WERE JUST PHENOMINAL !! ABOUT AS FUN AND ENJOYABLE ANY SATURDAY NIGHT CAN BE

Absolutely awesome! Would go again! Recommended to any Led Zeppelin fan..

Truly amazing! Of course, Randy Jackson did not disappoint; love George Cintron; AND - SOMETHING NEW THIS YEAR - ELECTRIC VIOLIN PLAYED BY AN AWESOME MUSICIAN!!!! LOVED HER! LOVED THE SHOW!!!

Excellent show! Randy is Plant all over again while Cintron was superb on guitar. Hearing Zeppelin with the Windborne Symphony was awesome...nothing better than its full sound. Kashmir was stellar!

Awesome. Second time seeing it. Will see it again if/when it returns.

I graduated USL in 83.... heard of /about ZEBRA, but never made a show for one reason or another. Never saw Zepellin LIVE either tho I went to several other big concerts. . . . Jackson's genius should not overwhelm the fact that the orchestra was damn tight, and consistently solid compared to Broadway shows i have seen. His voice was a little sketchy on the start, but he found his stride before intermission and improved w/ each song. Only complaint: I brought my debit card along w/o cash so could not buy a drink, or his CD.... but that was my shortcoming......... Treev

Randy was fantastic as he usually is and the orchestra was fantastic also.

Great rock show. I thought it would be more symphony so was pleasantly surprised

Great! I highly recommend this performance! A must see!

Awsome experience. Any age can enjoy. Any one knowing the music will so appreciate this concert.

Great guitar player (who is also the lead singer), great drummer and bass player! The orchestra accentuated the Music of Led Zeppelin, making it sound more dramatic and fresh! One of the best musical experiences we have had for many years.

This is an excellent show! I have seen it twice now, in Dallas and Lafayette. It was great both times. I would recommend any Led Zep fan to see it.

Randy Jackson is a fantastic entertainer! No disappointments at all. The Lafayette Symphony Orchestra is also awesome! The drummer was outstanding! This was a fantastic concert, and we enjoyed ourselves to the fullest! Can't say enough good things about it! Definitely Jazz Fest quality performance ;o)

Our first time attending this venue (Heymann Center Lafayette) and the show was great! There were a few technical issues; the lead singer had to use wired mics at the last minute and the sound guys seemed to have trouble balancing the vocals with the symphony, but they made adjustments on the fly and by halfway point of the show the sound had much improved. The band was also playing without their usual lead guitarist so Randy was covering vocals and guitar but did a superb job nonetheless. Highly recommend to any Zeppelin fan!

Had front row seats and my only regret is I didn't buy more and bring more family. If you have an opportunity to see this show and don't go, you are missing real talent. Be entertained without curse words and underware out. Bring your kids and allow them to see what "music" is. Brent Havens, thank you! Randy, you are the man.

I did not like the way that Randy Jackson came on stage - NO major introduction. The first half of the show was slightly amiss due to the microphone shocking Mr. Jackson. I seemed like they were trying to get a hold onto the show since only half of the band was there for the performance. We actually went to see the electric violin which did not show up! With that being said, I would still recommend this show to someone only if the entire band the was there.

57 years old but musically ageless, Jackson reigned with cold command over the Zeppelin high notes. He delivered with such power and accuracy with his mighty instrument that all who witnessed were scintillated from the energy he emitted. Did I mention that his guitar playing was spectacular? If it wasn't enough for Jackson to honor the legend of Robert Plant with his unimaginable vocal gift, could you have believed that he would also nail Jimmy Page's guitar right down to the double-neck rhythm and solo work on Stairway To Heaven! My 15 and 16 year old son and daughter are big Zeppelin fans, so I brought them to see how an "old guy" rocks... To their everlasting amazement, Randy Jackson brought back to live music the timeless genius of Led Zeppelin, and seared it into their memories forever. Valhalla I am coming...

I have been a fan of Led Zeppelin since college. It was an enjoyable evening to listen to the music live. The musicians are extremely talented. Was it Led Zeppelin live? No, but then it will never be them again but it was the next best thing and an enjoyable evening.

I've gone to this show a couple times, and this year it was definitely not as good as the other years. They were missing their usual guitarist and the violinist who traveled with them. Randy Jackson filled in on guitar and did a reasonably good job, or at least I think as you could not hear the guitar at all. People in the audience even complained and he mocked them and did not turn it up much at all. he might as well been air guitaring it or not playing at all.
