    PJ for me for sure. I saw LZ back in the 70's and they are awesome and I'm sure they still are, ( I was at HOB in 2005 and Plant was awesome and I am very glad I was there, but my favorite moments were PJ's reactions). But PJ are closer to my heart! :)

    I really hate to say this but I don't know that there will be plenty of more chances to see Pearl Jam. Come on guys....the band isn't going to be around forever.

    I would take the front row seats for Pearl Jam and then go see Zep in another city. I have never been front row at any big concert (just at some small club shows) so I don't think I could pass up front row to my favorite band but I couldn't pass up a chance to see Zep either. I was born in the 80s so I've never had the chance to see them before. Next to PJ, they're probably my favorite band.
    that's my feeling too. i'd love to be front row at a PJ show....i'd travel for nosebleeds for a zep show though, definitely!

    The plenty days are only an accident away from never happening.

    Especially considering Page's gardening skills. :D

    I had to actually think for a minute about it.
    As much as I love Zeppelin, being that close to PJ would just be the world to me.
    I know I'll most likely never experience it, but Christ, a lad can dream. I can just picture Release, from front row. Sends chills.

    I saw Page and Plant 10 years ago and it was the best concert I've seen outside of many PJ shows... I can't imagine them sounding any better 10 years later so I'll go with PJ.
    you almost got the same lineup as me in your sigs:)

    were playing in your hometown on the same night and you were guaranteed front row for PJ, upper level for Zep. Which show do you attend?

    With all the hoopla over Zep maybe touring thought I'd throw it out there.

    Growing up with Zep and having seen PJ 25 times I'd go with Zep......

    Pearl Jam! I've always wanted to see them live! Led Zeppelin is ok...but I would've liked to see them live in the 70's.

    I can't believe I'm gonna reply to such a pointless question, but Pearl Jam for sure. I saw Page/PLant in '95 and it was good, but come on...it's not Led Zep 1974. It's "Led Zeppelin" 2007.

    Besides, Pearl Jam probably plays a longer set on any given night!

    Here's the right answer: You pick Pearl Jam, because it's a front row ticket. And it's in your hometown, in my case, Boston. Then what you do is, either the night before, or the night after, Zeppelin is more than likely playing in a city a few hours away, so you just go to that one as well, whether or not the seat is in the upper rows. And traveling to see Zeppelin would be worth it anyway so you wouldn't feel bad about doing it, and you wouldn't feel bad about passing up the show in your town for a front row ticket to Pearl Jam. And what promoters would be stupid enough to have 2 enormous shows like that in one city on the same night?

    Have to go with LZ. Saw Pearl Jam front row in Cleveland '06, saw Page and Plant in 95 from the 20th row on the floor. But with Jones on board, and Lil' Bonham on drums, I can't pass up the only band that mattered to me before Pearl Jam came along.
