One of the most legendary guitarists of all time and Led Zeppelin star, Jimmy Page, has recently shared a post about his classic ‘On This Day’ series via his verified and official Instagram account.
This time, Jimmy Page has posted a really rare photo which taken on January 6th, 1975 there had been an incident at the Box Office at Boston Garden in Boston.
Normally, Led Zeppelin would make performance on January 6th, 1975 at the Box Office at Boston Garden in Boston, but they didn’t do that because the scheduled Led Zeppelin show being canceled by the former mayor of Boston, Kevin H White.
You can read the story of Jimmy Page below.
“On this day in 1975, I planned to play Boston Garden with @ledzeppelin. On researching for my website, I discovered that on January 6th, 1975 there had been an incident at the Box Office at Boston Garden in Boston, Massachusetts that had involved a sale / non-sale of tickets to thousands of fans.
Police were called and it all ended with the scheduled Led Zeppelin show being canceled by Mayor Kevin H White (who saw red) and, even more, there was apparently a five-year ban put on the band playing the venue.
I was blissfully unaware of any of these shenanigans, but the Mayor was, by all accounts, a Rolling Stones fan! I played in Boston again in 1995 at The Fleet Center with Page & Plant.”
