1975's Physical Grafitti (a double album) became the first release ever to ship platinum even before it hit the stores.

It also drew all of Zep's previous albums back onto the Billboard charts - making them the first, and only artist ever to have 6 albums in the top 200 ever. Never been duplicated.

On their 1977 tour they sold out SIX nights at both the LA Forum and MSG. Think about that for a minute.

In 1979 they headlined the Knebworth Festival in front of almost 200,000 people.

Over 20 million people applied for the 16,000 tickets available for the 2007 reunion concert.

What the **** you smoking son?
