oldies?
Is time speeding forward and compressing, wherein the recent past is considered the distant past and an "oldies" show called "Back in the Day" plays "Tonight, Tonight" by the Smashing Pumkins and "Freak on a Leash" by Korn. What exactly is the demographic on FUSE? Fourteen?
After that show they run the Led Zeppelin movie "The Song Remains the Same" with a twist. Viewers are invited to run their opinions/reviews of the film from the website in a crawl at the bottom of the movie. Most of the comments are along the lines of "this sucks" or more commonly they use the space to send personel messages to friends.
They are currently playing the 23 minute opus "Dazed and Confused". There have been three commercial breaks during the song.
Robert Plant introduces the song "Stairway to Heaven" by saying "this is a song of hope" against a New York city skyline -- at the center of the still is most prominantly the World Trade Center Towers. Does anybody remember laughter?

Ah, a simpler time.
In 1973 the seminal rock band Led Zeppelin, one of the founders of the music genre known as "heavy metal," went on tour and performed in Madison Square Garden. This documentary has concert footage, including the 23-minute-long version of the song "Dazed and Confused." The film also shows the musicians at home, pursuing some of their hobbies including drag-racing. The concert coverage also has scenes revealing what took place backstage, and a discussion of the theft of the band's cash during their visit to New York.
