Fri, May 1st, 8-10pm, Concert – Geoff Johnson "A solo acoustic interpretation of Led Zeppelin, one of rock's most influential bands" Led Zeppelin's impact on popular music is undeniable. Their music has become a staple of rock radio and bar band sets. Some say their name helped spawn the term "Heavy Metal".

Geoff Johnson is out to introduce (or reintroduce) listeners to the more acoustic portion of the band's catalog. Taking some of the heavier bits out and putting Geoff's own elements into the music leaves you with.
