This Month in Zeppelin for March

Every month I have a monthly update on what happened in Zeppelin history. The first show of the month will include a This Month in Zeppelin feature where all of the important events of the month are announced. If there's an extremely important date (i.e. big album releases, deaths, births, ect.), I will talk about it as close to the date as possible. So, without further ado, this month in Led Zeppelin...

• March 1969: The band performs for TV audiences. After many issues with the studio setups the band decides to never perform on TV again.
