Robert Plant Talks about Dread Zeppelin!

[keddrockable]

@TimAsslicker meow!

[00tOOl00]

i dont believe it!!... WTF!!

[IndighostOfficial]

Elvis would work, because both he and Led Zep are very blues based

[catshavesouls]

Robert Plant you are a class act.

[guitarttimman]

I would much rather listen to Led Zeppelin.

I STILL do not get what they were trying to do.

I have all of Zep's albums (cds) but not one of Dread's.

Sorry! I just never got it!

[icabodcranium]

@guitarttimman You gotta have a sense of humor and realize they are paying tribute while making it fun. You should check out Beatallica also.

[guitarttimman]

@icabodcranium

well okay, but I really think it's stupid for anyone to really try to insult a band like Led Zeppelin, and

I NEVER got that "sloppy Page" saying that was going around.

Jimmy Page was, and still is, my favorite all time rock guitarist. HE WAS NEVER SLOPPY!

[icabodcranium]

@guitarttimman Do you play an instrument? He is a great guitarist and so talented that the average ear couldnt tell when he was having a bad night. There were times when he was sloppy and he was lucky to have Jones and Bonham help mask it!

[guitarttimman]

@icabodcranium

yes I'm a guitarist, and I am saying that Jimmy Page was always awesome! It makes me angry

when some jackass calls him sloppy! He's my favorite! Just like Bonzo and Jonesy were awesome too!

And come check out my videos if you get a chance!

peace!

[fairyfellermaster]

@guitarttimman So you're calling Jimmy page a jackass? Cos he said so himself: " I'm a sloppy guitarist..." I kind of like that about him. A lot better than all these technical shredding virtuosos nowadays. He plays with inspiration (& a little perspiration lol).

[guitarttimman]

@fairyfellermaster

no man I'd NEVER call him that!

didn't know he said that; I never really looked at his style as being "sloppy" though.

I just considered it to be "rugged," and that's what I LOVED his playing so much!

[valkour22]

@guitarttimman Page is a very sloppy player and suxx live. He was only good as a sound man , thats why he sounded good on records he was producing it, but in a live concert TITO JACKSON could even out play Page. Page was the worst guitarist I have ever saw live totally dreadful.

[valkour22]

@guitarttimman oo yea and Page also ripped off ever idea he ever had type in led zeppelin plagerism and u will see countless artist he ripped off. Dude is a total scumbag. Justin Beiber has more talent then Page ever had or will have. Dude's a bum

[degree7]

@valkour22

Trolly mcTroll Troll

[guitarttimman]

@valkour22

ROFLMAO no way man! But that's some good ass trollin' I will give you that much :-)

[valkour22]

@guitarttimman look it up

[guitarttimman]

@valkour22

i don't care i am still a fan of Page's. But, Justin Bieber SUCKS okay? :@

[MisterMouthy]

@valkour22

you're kidding right? Jimmy Page is so fucking great. There is NO WAY that Bieber bitch can even be compared. Justin Bieber sings like he's got a mother fucking pussy between IT'S legs so fuck off now gay whore!

[valkour22]

@MisterMouthy Jimmy Page is a bum that never came up with 1 legit riff or song of his own through the 1st 4 lp's lolol, What a tool ! They should kick his butt out of the hall of fame and send his ass to prison for all the material HE STOLED!!!!

[RisingSon011]

@valkour22 stoled ? Go back to grammar school , and then go trolling .

[valkour22]

@RisingSon011 learn to spell. U posted stuff all over my channel,but ur spelling was so bad I could not make sense of it.

[RisingSon011]

@valkour22 . Unbelievable . You still troll these vids after all these months? Move on to the next thing , shitwad , really .Get a better hobby.Seek attention elsewhere. 

[valkour22]

@MisterMouthy LOOK up led zeppelin plagerism or the 1 Howard Stern did on them also. LED ZEPPELIN are no talent BUMS , LOOK IT UP!!!

[valkour22]

@MisterMouthy Howard Stern interview the truth behind led zeppelin. This says it all , look it up.

[Deliverance02x]

@valkour22 This isn't even good trolling it's totally transparent... make a new account and try again.

[valkour22]

@Deliverance02x Its the truth,

[Deliverance02x]

@valkour22 You totally ruined what would have been a decent trolling run when you brought up Justin Bieber, way too over-the-top and obvious.

[valkour22]

@RisingSon011 Ur the sick person posting lies about me. Ur as sick as the artist u worship.

[Cincinnatus1869]

@valkour22 sucks when someone tries to smear your reputation in a public format eh?!! ha ha ha ha . ha ha ha ha

[valkour22]

@Cincinnatus1869 Doesn't bother me cause he is just lying. It only shows what kind of mentality he has. He is like a child who resorts to name calling and hate to prove even futher he is a basement dweller in his mom and dads house trying to be cool with slander.

[moscow0Chap]

Mythical times! Great persons!

[TheZappermaster]

@1968pookie YOU ARE WRONG!!!ELVIS IS DEAD!!!

[Luukeeeehh]

he looks very messed up here

still love him, one of my idols

[DARRINCONNOR1]

@Luukeeeehh I'm confused how does he looked "messed up" do you mean as in drug's???cause if you do, your way off.

[Luukeeeehh]

@DARRINCONNOR1 very old and a bit tired

[lhcarter]

He actually meant "Heartbreaker Hotel" in the second part of this interview, not "Black Dog."

[DonTheTurtleDude]

@lhcarter but then he was singing the lyrics to heartbreak hotel so he meant it

[GrantGuides]

Robert does a good Elvis impression

[DancingSpiderman]

@GrantGuides Robert does a good Dread Zeppelin impression

[Willysmb44]

I had alwasy wondered what Plant thought of them. Good to know he wasn't ticked!

[axltyler]

what was the GnR video footage at the beginning for? What did Plant think of GnR?

[albus11sslazio]

someone can translate it in italian? please

[palbo4]

@albus11sslazio why? you obviously know english

[albus11sslazio]

@palbo4 i read and write in english a little but it's very hard to me to understend someone talk in english

[Anonymous343434]

'Dread Zeppelin is an American band best known for performing the songs of Led Zeppelin in a reggae style as sung by a 300 pound Vegas Elvis impersonator.' I died I little when I read that.

[ckyfanrick]

@Anonymous343434 wikipieda mind fucks us

[ChiroQuacker]

@Anonymous343434

first off tortelvis doen not weigh 300 pounds..the heaviest he looked was in the misty mountain hop concert video clip....which is their "sgt. pepper"...great performance clip that i would put up their with any of the big bands...

i love the immigrant song arrangement and that public acces show clip is awesome...i love this band and i love tortelvis..he is super cool, funny, talented as are all the guys except for that magilla gorilla looking charlie haj. he can eat my sack.

[DancingSpiderman]

@ChiroQuacker "... he can eat my sack."

Indeed.

[Tecumseh1812]

@Anonymous343434 Dread Zeppelin have been around for longer than Led Zeppelin was around . It's old news

[NuttyJon]

@antisadism - Rain Song in the final scene of Cemetery Junction. Don't know if Ricky Gervais had to 'beg', but it was a beautiful choice.

[fishbonegroove]

@antisadism Didn't I see a Cadillac commercial featuring 'Rock and Roll'? I thought that was sad...

[aulduron]

@antisadism Except for the time they let Cadillac use "Rock and Roll" in their commercials.

[Tecumseh1812]

@aulduron Page and Jones have said they allowed that to happen simply because they love Cadillacs. If your gonna pitch a product , especially when you don't need the dough , at least pitch a product you believe in .

[hazor777]

imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.......Plant seems to get that

[mikeockurts]

Robert gets all pissed when someone in his band immitates the Black Dog guitar riff.

[record1207]

Does not seem really that Plant does not approve? I am a Dread fan. There great at what they do.

[dulceillusions]

Do you happen to have the missing piece where he talks about GNR (I'm assuming because of the first clip) if so could you post it thx =)

[voteforjoe]

what a fucking gem of a guy... lol we need more chill musicians like that

[loknloll]

the guitarist in Dread Zep knows Page inside out... he plays Page licks at different tempos, alludes to Page lines, plays them reggae style. it's amazing...

[antimarxism]

@loknloll You are a real matlock. Did you discover all this yourself, or did you have an expert team of investigative musicians working for you?

[loknloll]

@antimarxism don't get shirty. i meant that the guitarist (while obviously playing jimmy page riffs) understands jimmy page and the songs they cover to an incredible degree. he plays riffs in half time, plays trippy melody lines drenched in reverb, and twists and plays with classic jimmy page music with alarming intelligence, and musicality. my point was, this is no mere cover band. if you know the zep songs well, this guys' guitar work will leave you smiling, laughing and gasping in awe...

[antimarxism]

@loknloll Amazing insight, Rick Rubin.

[loknloll]

@antimarxism how'd you guess? anyway, dudester, lighten the motherfuck up.

[antimarxism]

@loknloll So deep this musical discussion that I really need to lighten up. Thanks Dr. Phil.

[loknloll]

@antimarxism nice sentence structure, retard. i just checked your youtube page. seems you are in desperate need of a friend.

count me out.

[antimarxism]

@loknloll If anyone in the whole wide world is qualified to teach me "sentence structure", it would be you, Aelius Donatus. Just looking at your work on this page adds new meaning to the word "marvel".

[antimarxism]

@loknloll In regards to you and my YT page, thanks for the psychological stalker advice, Hannibal.

[antimarxism]

@loknloll BTW, could you go more into your enlightening, mind-boggling accessment of DZ's guitar player? What else are your keen ears hearing, Philip Glass?

[1Rosshole]

I was just talking to my girlfriend about Coolio and how upset he was when Weird Al Yankovic did a parody of "Gangsters' Paradise". It just goes to show you how secure Plant is about Zeps' music. Just be happy when someone's paying attention to something you've done! It's a tribute no matter what! Dread On!

[gunsdinho]

Plant talks about Guns N' Roses in this interview?

[gunsdinho]

@gunsdinho Before Dread Zeppelin of course ....

[hellokittylover4life]

he looks hot in this interview xD

[Juspa83]

I can't believe all these comments.. you guys really don't know what's this video about?!! Ever heard of Led Zeppelin? Check it out! And comment then..and you guys who think I'm just talking about Black Dog..start your Zeppelin education again..

[MuskateerGripWeed]

man how much like Paul McCartney does he sound and act like even his mannerisms......

[Juspa83]

what the fuck are you talking about? Robert Plant - Paul McCartney?

[ch88ch35]

Well said

[RubHerSoul1]

@MuskateerGripWeed sorta. But McCartney has no control these days over his hamming it up and singing deadpan at the drop of a hat. Plant usually doesn't go there. This seems like just a one-off comment from him. much as I worship Macca, he oughtta just answer questions naturally like he used to, instead of trumping up the obvious like he does on all those interviews he gives. And he seems to be interviewed daily which is too much for anyone. No mystique left in him anymore.

[555DSC]

Elvis lives, here is the proof.

[hearthbreaker1987]

tortelvis rules

[DancingSpiderman]

@hearthbreaker1987 yeah, He dos. I'd like to see what Tortelvis's Throne looks like.

[anhaltbeeyer]

Watch Movies like Robert Plant Talks about Dread Zeppelin! at W W W . TV-Video . us

[kidcouger]

Why would the singer think he is Elvis,When he is Elvis!

[LedZepAlexander]

@kidcouger He is not elvis thats why

[Kidcouger2]

@kidcouger

Haha you're right!

[1968pookie]

@kidcouger .... He is Elvis, faked his own death... chilled for a while and formed Dred Zepplin.

A little plastic surgery... and... whala..

[dinoboss]

awesome

[r70072]

...the other guy thinks he's Elvis..LOL

[DethTilDeath69]

haha, hes called tourtelvis

[metalschooldrill]

You guys have really brought Elvis back from the dead. Its a miracle

[wellcraft28]

I love that fact that Plant is cool with them.

He was also a fan of Little Feat..

[kannedfaru]

You could steal Robert Plants car and he would tell everyone how great he thinks you are

[andr3wbr1an]

what's dread zeppelin?? led zeppelin pozers?

[bloodviolence]

The best tribute band in the world motherfucker

[Sunburn21591]

i like hayseed dixies too

[JimiGoode]

just wonderin, why's it openin with the end of the Sweet Child o' Mine music video?

[Damoskinos]

the guy dressed as Elvis is he the same person that is on "Ask Elvis" on the Steve Wright show?

This is more of a UK question

[twistedlemons]

Nope, Ask Elvis is portrayed by Mitch Benn, of Mitch Benn & The Distractions...

[Hardrock3007]

SLASH AND IZZY ???!

[metalheadblues]

haha this is price less

[ledzeprockinlove]

Can't believe he likes them..Robert has some patience..but hey dread zeppelin are not so bad they do have rythmn! and plus i think robert digs them cause he likes Elvis and there's an Elvis impersonater!

[Kato91]

Happy Birthday Robert Plant!

[PromiserOfDeath]

All yall Turds with negative Comments Shut the hell up!

[TheRealDerfMan]

Well, one would start by having a good sense of humour, "LeDude"......

[Rafterman123]

People with a sense of humor, not you

[greendaypenguinbob]

glad he appreciates them

[cnacios]

I thought I was gonna get rick rolled

[Luzzeppelin]

Love plant!!!

[YeYiiUtZz12]

Robert plant is love :] (L)

[ludwigvan17]

Robert Plant's stoned here. I can tell.

[KanzlerM]

Robert Plant stoned?

No, couldn't be.

He never touched any of that stuff.

[patate3332]

hahaha! I hope you're kiding me!! Plant took almost as much drug as Page in the Led Zeppelin years!!!

[KanzlerM]

8p

(I've seen The Song Remains The Same)

[sfischermilford]

hah no way.

[1qazq1]

love it

[kianaa808]

hell yeah he is. i love his swagg.

[kurtney91]

robert is fucking sexy

[Laviour]

damn, they all are sexy...

[Haydeez64]

damn jimmy page in his dress clothes in the vid for kashmir, just wow, robert even more in that vid.

[TheRainbowPrincess]

He's right haha Dread Zeppelin are so funny.. but a tribute anyway :) Plant is the coolest!

[vdbdg]

Despite being the ultimate rock n' roll God, Plant always took things with a pinch of salt, always reminding people that music is for having fun and nothing else. Dread Zep is a great tribute indeed

[marmas58ink]

@vdbdg "music is for having fun and nothing else?" ... Guess I must have been listening to the wrong kind of music!

I know what you mean (Plant and his r-n-r persona). But if it's nothing else Dread Zepplin beats Plant's old band all to hell.

[Winnders]

@marmas58ink well i dont think that can be said either. fun can be constreude a few ways, like zepplin had big 10 hour wankery bits on stage, that toa musician is unbeleivably fun, however not fun in the comedic way as dread zepplin do it

[waltherppk1000]

@vdbdg --oh please "the ultimate rock god" how fucking gay are you?

Dread Zeppelin is more entertaining anyday than those old wankers

[92larsko]

@waltherppk1000 what the fuck?

[ctr3z]

That has to be a wig. hahaah

[sublimegrl09]

plant is cool

[rajplaysdrums]

Guns n Roses fucking saved rock n roll in the 80's with all the glam shit that was going on. I love them and the zep

[sweeper032389]

You're a biiiiiiiig dummy.

[brandothecammando]

guns n roses did not.

[harvesterofsand]

MetallicA Was the Shit in the 80's jajajajjajajajajaj ( well at least not the commercial shit jajajajjaajja )

[bluecard26]

metallica fucked up, god theyre sell outs. thats not rock n roll. rock in the 80s was fucked up by glam bands, until gnr came along and slammed rock back in its course, they were the fucking biggest band in the world, until they got soft and grunge took over.

[Gubbinz]

hey some of those hair bands could rock the shit out of gnr

[Lemarc8]

thats true!

[KarmicOmen]

Robert and Jimmy have great senses of humor -- no egos about being covered by -- well, by what I wouldn't exactly call a tribute or covered band, but nonetheless, they are okay with it.

[xxxgunsnroseslashxxx]

can any1 tell me why GN'R was at the beginning? i love zeppelin and GN'R it would make me happy if robert plant is a GN'R fanatic too!

[hhJACK92]

They're a Led Zep tribute with a sense of humor. What's not to like?

[LastCynicStanding]

That's what cracks me up about situations like this.

The original artists dont care. It's the lifeless nerds that get all bent out of shape.

[xyberfunk]

lol.. reminds me of a scene from This Is Spinal Tap

[ThreeSoftTacos]

lol yea i know what your talking about. thats a great movie

[vitatonks]

Hey! he talked about guns n roses before???

anybody knows??

please tell me!

I love Led Zeppelin and GNR and i really like to know if he said something about them!

[davies2205]

he said they were fuckin' shite and he'd rather stick his cock in a blender than listen to their music

[bloodgutsnglory]

Don't listen to that shit head davies2205. GnR were one of if not THE best band to come out since Zepplin and in my opinion no one better has come out since.

[vitatonks]

You're right. I'm totally agree with you :)

in my opinion the old GNR was great! and I miss them... in the same way I wish I could to see Led Zeppelin before I die... or before they die O_o

[bloodgutsnglory]

Well there's a chance to see Zepplin. Plant said after his tour with Alison Kraus that he would be up for a full on Zepplin if everyone else would. I think Page would love to do it and J. P. Jones is always up for anything. I say let 'em loose. Oh, you'll hear the naysayers saying they're too old, bla bla bla. 10 rows back and I bet you can't see the first wrinkle on one of their faces. Shit, Sabbath did it, now it's time for Zepplin, one more time...

[bokadude]

Hey Flavor Red. You sound like some faggy little kid with a boner for Page. Fuckin' dummy-Dread Zep is parody-do you know the meaning you retard?

[russianroulette4you]

LMFAO

[minorkatminor]

Nothing compared to LedZep.

[hassanmahtat]

Was he saying anything about guns n' roses before??

If yes, du have the video to that??

Cheers!!

[theXDguy]

Jum Do Da Da Da. Jum Do Da Da Da. Jum Do Da Da Da. Jum Do Da Da Da. AHHHHH OHHHH AHH YAHHH! AHHHHH OHHHH AHH YAHHH!

[filthyunderpants]

Dread Zeppelin put on the most fun shows I ever went to.

[satanavituu1]

haha Dread Zeppelin Rules

[FlavorRed]

Dread Zeppelin blows. I can see why Jimmy Page doesn't like them.

[ShitCrap]

hahahaha, take your fist out of your ass

[FlavorRed]

Hahahaha! Take your fist and aim it at your face.

[DictionRedaction]

"and the other guy thinks he's Elvis" hahaha

[310exkratos]

i wonder why Robert Plant likes Dread Zep so much its like the Dread Zep are humiliating the Led Zep

[Megachunk]

Nope, sorry. You couldn't be more wrong.

Everyone in the band adores Led Zeppelin, and everyone in the band is not a hack, but a smokin' talented, PRO musician. If you folks would actually listen to the band, or even better, see a live show, you'd know why even Robert Fuckin' Plant digs them so much.

[JIMMYJIBLETS]

are you kidding! dread zep are just putting a different spin on the band they love. do you think Weird Al is setting out to humiliate the guys he covers?

[Falkon36]

dont say stupid things
