Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and John Bonham’s son Jason Bonahm played a two-hour, 16-song tribute show in memory of their late friend and record executive Ahmet Ertegun. It was the band’s first live performance in 27 years, and the 18,000 fans that attended were selected from a worldwide lottery of 20 million people who applied for tickets.
