It seemed like just two months ago I was speed climbing a mountain to get a shot for this video and mildly hyperventilating now it’s on a billboard in Times Square 😳😳
Thank you @youtubemusic

#MusicMonday: Led Zeppelin
I’ve been asked to share a bit more about my experiences with Led Zeppelin.
I first met Jimmy page in 1967 when I was with The Guess Who and he was with The New Yardbirds at The Cleveland Art Institute. Both bands shared a dressing room. He asked if he could play my Rickenbacker and I said yes, if I could play his Telecaster. This week in 1968, as an official band, Led Zeppelin played their first ever Canadian show at The Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver. Their North American tour in ’68-’69 exploded their popularity in the US and Canada.
In 1969, The Guess Who played The Seattle pop festival in Woodinville, WA. We ended up playing the same venues as Led Zep several times. After our band played, we’d go to the back of the crowd and watch the other acts. At one of the festivals, which were always in fields with generators, the main generator went out. Only one little amp was working. It had Robert Plant’s harmonica mic in it and the rest of the PA system was down. John Bonham kept drumming and Plant sang into this little mic and played harmonica for about 40 minutes until the power came on. I was amazed. They were just great!
We crossed paths many times over the next few decades, playing the same circuits. It was a memorable moment for me as a musician when Robert Plant told me how much he loved “American Woman”.
Decades later at Sweden Rock where I played with Fred Turner, I was able to give Jimmy an original poster from Seattle Pop I had saved from '69 and send one to Robert Plant as well. Incredible musicians who have rocked the world. #ledzeppelin #music #classicrock #askrandy
Watch me try to keep it together! my holiday duet with the one and only @bryanadams can be heard on all streaming platforms and the whole Great Big Holiday Jam: Bryan Adams and Friends, airs one last time tonight on @City_tv at 7 pm and streaming all holiday season on CityTV+
Construction definitively major progressing at the ranch….still a lot of rock to remove from the great pit, but we now have great opportunities for re-use in the design, also excited for the first on-site progress meeting! @keystone_arch#onwardandupward
Fence finally done!…well at least the south end! 😏 …even amidst 34 degree C summer temps, now the yard is closed in for construction activities #longassfence#onwardsandupwards👆🏽💪🏼❤️ rd
Another exploration today in our back yard here at the stead in the #fraservalley …did a trail hike at the apparently quite famous Moon Rock Access Trail.
The views were stunning... Always so excited to discover more of BC’s amazing #natures-cape. #Summervacay2025
