Can you guys realize that Led Zeppelin may have played their "Stairway to Heaven" for the first time on the American continent right here in Vancouver? They kicked out their tour at Vancouver's Pacific Coliseum on August 19, 1971. After recording it in early 1971, they could have played it in Europe (Italy, UK, Denmark) and came to Canada while having it on their list of pieces to perform in North America. So, what the heck, why it's not 35 or even 40 years ago..., it doesn't matter. Let's get together in the middle of August and sing or play along something that will never be obsolete and the piece of music itself will never be duplicated or otherwise repeated the way they played it right here. Let's show the entire North America that this song was played on this continent right here, in our city.
