The show itself was remarkable. The imagery on the back screen displayed the historic event of the Hindenburg crashing..then the ladies took the stage. They opened with 'Good Times, Bad Times'. It was so awesome to see females rocking the Zep tunes. Steph has all the Page mannerisms down pact. What an amazing woman, such talent. To be able to hold up that doubleneck must be a feat in itself. The night flew by, and then at the end of the night, Michael White (from 'The White' fame) joined them on stage for 'Whole Lotta Love'. Steph's theremin solo echoed throughout the venue, sending chills down your back. The haunting squeals cried out, then the rest of the band picked up where they left off and the finished the night.
We hung around afterwards, then I used my wristband to get upstairs to see Steph and the other girls. All the ladies were sweet, and asked what I thought of the show. We walked down, then Leese and Dana joined everyone down in the lobby of the venue. My friends and I hung around till it died down a bit, then Steph came and spent a few minutes chatting with us. She graciously signed two of our concert tickets and after hugs goodbye we left.
They are an amazing group of ladies who love what they do, and that comes forth in the performances. They can rock just as hard as the men.
You can read the interview that I had the honour of doing with Steph here.
