It was prerecorded and played over the venues PA system. I believe it was Page and Jonesy playing bows on electric and acoustic guitars simultaneously.
@UberPiroxsFriend The monotonous drone was produced by Led Zeppelin bassist/keyboardist John Paul Jones and guitarist Jimmy Page by playing an acoustic guitar with a violin bow in the key of F# and layering the various sounds it produced.
gah they should've opened the O2 show in London 3 years ago the EXACT SAME WAY.

The drone is taken straight from the Scottish Pipes. Many military funerals in GB start with a drone.

How was the LA drone created? What a way to start a concert!
