THE ARTIST, ON THE ROAD

The story behind this itinerary

A compact itinerary with a continent-sized journey. Five Australian concerts and one New Zealand date put Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Auckland, Sydney and Brisbane on the same February calendar.

The official artist timeline supplies the dates, cities and venues. The Australian leg filter leaves the Auckland concert out of playback without removing it from the underlying archive.

“Australasian Tour” describes the selected leg. This view does not imply that these were all of Led Zeppelin’s concerts in 1972.
