It takes balls to cover Led Zeppelin, especially with all these purists on youtube.
Reminder, that Myles Kennedy was considered to replace Robert Plant as well.
He is an epic singer.
This version of the song rocks so much harder than most other stuff that has ever been written in recent years. Just shows how good the classics are, just as vital now as they were when they came about.
this year's ROTR sucked! i mean they had some good bands (keyword there: "some") but the soundmen had the bass up way too high and we almost couldn't even hear the bands when they were playing
i mean bass is very important, but its never good to have it so loud that u can't even hear the rest of the band. same goes with the rest of the instrument roles
Anybody that hates this voice, has shit for brains. Myles has the best voice in the buisness and he can do just amazing if not better live than on a recorded album. The man is the most talented in the biz.
ok people. can we get over this whole LZ thing? as far as I've seen, Page has already said that this will be a new project with new material and a new name and there will be no LZ without Plant. so stop hating on Myles because you think he's going to replace Plant if he gets the gig. HE'S NOT!!!
Lets see what Zeppelin said about him, rather then criticise something i bet most of you know noting about... If you dont do it (Plant), were going out with this kid. And he can sing the shit out of Zeppelin And theyre gonna hope that Robert, at the last minute, will go, OK, and step in.
what's with all the haters? if anything the bad sound quality doesn't help, but check out some of his other zeppelin covers before you judge, myles would clearly be one of the best candidates if zeppelin were to tour, hes got great range and is one of the best vocalist out there right now... but from what i've been hearing hes already been rehearsing with jimmy page so i think there's a good chance he'll be the front man for the zeppelin

No offense to Myles cuz I think he has a kickass voice & it's better than mine but I do a way better Robert Plant than he does. Me for Zeppelin lead singer '08.
Damn I love Alter Bridge! I was going ape shit in the stands during this, best cover played all weekend! And we all know there were more than a few covers played that weekend...
it sucked so bad i was sitting next to this 40 year old guy and him and his buddy just sat there and dissed on them the whole time saying they sucked at covering this song but they were so wrong. it was amazing.
This is a brilliant cover!! Myles sounds awesome, I hate it when people say otherwise, how can people slate this guy? He is a phenominal singer, end of.
To: Malanauta ,I don't think Robert Plant would have praised their version of Kasmir if he "slaughtered" it. Your ignorant comment would lead me to believe you don't even know who Robert Plant is. This version is badass and I have seen it live by Alter Bridge. Long live Alter Bridge, keeping real rock and roll alive and well.

I do know who Robert Plant is and I like a lot of Zeppelin.
Maybe he was just off that day (it was the first time I had heard Alter Bridge perform), but I was at RotR last weekend too and both I and the people I was with were not impressed with the cover.
Sorry if others don't agree with me, but that is my opinion.
I was there, and this was one of my favorite parts of that show. One of my favorite RoTR memories, actually. And I go every year.
Best Zeppelin cover I've ever heard, I think.

The breakdown from 2:15 onwards sends me chills, especially when it builds back into it.
Brilliant cover.

'Kennedy has a four-octave vocal range and can hold a note for 22 seconds, both of which could be helpful in singing Stairway to Heaven'.
