--missing encore song-ran out of space--
Can confirm there was only one song played during the encore unlike other dates.

Recording notes:
If only every night can be like this night of recording.  Plenty of room to move around in if some chatters showed up.  The crowd was actually pretty tame compared to the night before with Weezer.  Really digging the recording on this one.

Too bad I made a rookie mistake and ran out of space!  I missed the one song encore.  I was pretty upset but not as upset as I would have been if I had missed out on a recording of When The Levee Breaks which was transcendent.

While I did not capture the final song, I did have a good laugh at the encore break mention of Billie Eilish so I left it in.

Show notes:
I wouldn't consider myself a diehard Zeppelin fan, but I do own all the albums and know them well.  But I never looked into Robert Plant's career after Zeppelin folded.  He's been to Ottawa a few times and I never bothered to go to a show.

What was I thinking?

This show was incredible.  It was haunting at times how beautiful the songs were.  If Robert Plant and Alison Krauss ever tour again (this was the final date of their current tour), I will be first in line to see them.
