Led Zeppelin's 1972 Australasian Tour was the only concert tour of Australia and New Zealand by the English rock band. The tour commenced on 16 February and concluded on 29 February 1972. (Led Zeppelin's guitarist Jimmy Page had earlier toured Australia with The Yardbirds in January 1967). The original plan for this tour was for the group to stop off en route at Singapore for a concert on 14 February, but the local authorities refused their entry due to local laws banning males from wearing long hair.〔Lewis, Dave and Pallett, Simon (1997) ''Led Zeppelin: The Concert File'', London: Omnibus Press. ISBN 0-7119-5307-4, p. 74.〕〔Chris Welch (1994) ''Led Zeppelin'', London: Orion Books. ISBN 1-85797-930-3, p. 65.〕 Led Zeppelin received generally good press coverage for this tour and black-and-white footage of some of their concert at Sydney on 27 February,〔(Led Zeppelin official website: concert summary )〕 along with a press party, were filmed by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and shown to a national audience.〔〔 Some of this footage was later made available on the ''Led Zeppelin DVD'', released in 2003. Part way through this tour, Jimmy Page shaved off his trademark beard, a look he adopted nearly two years before while recording ''Led Zeppelin III''. He had the beard at Led Zeppelin's concert in Melbourne 20 February, but is clean shaven at the band's press party two days later. Page would remain clean shaven for the rest of the band's career. All of the concerts on this tour except for one (at Brisbane on 29 February)〔(Led Zeppelin official website: concert summary )〕 were performed at open-air venues. The Melbourne performance at Kooyong Stadium on 20 February was cut short due to inclement weather.〔(Led Zeppelin official website: concert summary )〕 All concerts from this tour are available on unofficial CDs except for the Perth concert and show the band in fine form. ==Tour set list== The fairly typical set list for the tour was: #"Immigrant Song" (Page, Plant) #"Heartbreaker" (Bonham, Page, Plant) #"Out on the Tiles" (intro) (Page, Plant, Bonham) / "Black Dog" (Page, Plant, Jones) #"Since I've Been Loving You" (Page, Plant, Jones) #"Celebration Day" (Page, Plant, Jones) (on 25, 27 and 29 June only) #"Stairway to Heaven" (Page, Plant) #"Going to California" (Page, Plant) #"That's the Way" (Page, Plant) #"Tangerine" (Page) #"Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp" (Page, Plant, Jones) #"Dazed and Confused" (Page) #"What Is and What Should Never Be" (Page, Plant) #"Rock and Roll" (Page, Plant, Jones, Bonham) #"Moby Dick" (Bonham) #"Whole Lotta Love" (Bonham, Dixon, Jones, Page, Plant) Encores: *"Communication Breakdown" (Bonham, Jones, Page) *"Organ Solo"/"Thank You" (Page, Plant) There were some set list substitutions, variations, and order switches during the tour. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Led Zeppelin Australasian Tour 1972」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
