The retrospective set includes Zep classics like opener "No Quarter," which receives a more tribal treatment, a funkified "Black Dog" and "Four Sticks." Other gems include songs from Plant's solo albums, like the political "Freedom Fries" and the cover of "Hey Joe," which was immortalized by Jimi Hendrix. The show's finale, a stretched-out bluesy rendition of "Whole Lotta Love" is not to be missed.

San Francisco's Train is one of the most successful bands stemming from the late-'90s, having sold millions of records and producing solid hit after hit with each album it releases. Singer Pat Monahan, guitarist Jimmy Stafford, drummer Scott Underwood, bassist Johnny Colt and keyboardist Brandon Bush know how to craft thoughtful ballads to anthemic rock 'n' roll - fans and radio cannot get enough of them. Soundstage welcomes the group, who deliver a rousing performance packed with sing-along choruses and hook-filled melodies. From its earliest introduction to the world to its most recent single, Train's show is top-notch and note perfect.
