Would there be interest in a Zeppelin Madness Tourney?

Just a feeler thread - I’m not promising to actually start it, and if anyone else wants to take the lead, feel free. But the Beatles, Stones, and Rush Madness threads made me interested in this.

Maybe #1 seeds of Stairway, Whole Lotta Love, Kashmir, and Immigrant Song?

I need to do some research…

Joe

Hells yes, I would be interested in this one!

What about Black Dog? Rock and Roll? Dazed and Confused? Communication Breakdown?
All could be “higher seeded” than immigrant song. Okay, maybe not communications breakdown. But that’d be about on par with it.

As long as “Battle of Evermore” wins, it’s all good. :smiley:

Considering their rather limited output, if I do this, I might reduce it to a field of 48 - I just don’t want to throw every single track in - I count 82 total studio tracks released from Zeppelin I through CODA, including Travelling Riverside Blues. 48 is a really nice number to me - all wheat, no chaff.

And if anyone else starts it, feel free to select whatever #1s you want - I was trying to balance popularity with my own opinions - of my PERSONAL #1s, I’d have to seed at least 2 in the bottom half, because they’re either lesser known or later tracks…

I’m gonna have to ferment the seeding overnight…

Joe

Achilles Last Stand for the win!

Hey, that’s one of my personal #1 or 2 seeds, seriously! I’d feel wrong seeding it higher than 11 or 12, though…

Joe

I’ll have some of that!

What about Heartbreaker/Livin’ Lovin’ Maid? Is that one or two songs. I would put it as a #1 seed. Agree on just 48 songs.

Yeah, I’d play.

I’m down for it.

I’m in.

A 48 song tournament works for me. I nominate:

Achilles’ Last Stand
Babe, I’m Gonna Leave You
Black Dog
Battle Of Evermore
Bring It On Home
Bron-yr-aur
Bron-yr-aur Stomp
Celebration Day
Communication Breakdown
The Crunge
Custard Pie
Dazed and Confused
D’yer Mak’er
Fool in the Rain
Gallows Pole
Going to California
Good Times, Bad Times
Heartbreaker
Hey Hey What Can I Do
How Many More Times
I’m Gonna Crawl
Immigrant Song
In the Evening
Kashmir
The Lemon Song
Living Loving Maid (She’s Just a Woman) ***
Misty Mountain Hop
Moby Dick
No Quarter
Nobody’s Fault But Mine
The Ocean
Out on the Tiles
Over the Hills and Far Away
The Rain Song
Ramble On
Rock & Roll
Royal Orleans

Stairway to Heaven
Tea For One
Ten Years Gone
Thank You
That’s the Way
Trampled Under Foot
The Wanton Song
What Is and What Should Never Be
When the Levee Breaks
Whole Lotta Love

I’m just waiting for someone to do Madness Madness.

I’ve determined that it’s one song, and a 2 or 3 seed. Still working on it.

Joe

Since the real thread is up, a mod can close this if they wish…

Joe

Before fluid comes in with her close-hammer, might I just add how there could be a question if we could support one of these, if there’s a firckin’ Rush Madness going on?
The mind boggles.

So, if you’ve come in off the street
And you’re beginning to feel the heat,
Well, listen, buster
You’d better move your feet…
