Last year’s Wayne “Led” Sorbelli’s Zeppelin Experience Tribute Show MARCH 2022 Key West Theater, was AMAZING!

Last year’s Wayne “Led” Sorbelli’s Zeppelin Experience Tribute show opening for national touring act Billion Dollar Babies Alice Cooper tribute band Saturday, March 12, 2022 at the Key West theater 512 Eaton Street, Key West Island, FLORIDA USA was so much fun to a standing room only crowd.

Unlike my 2021 shows, I added the double neck SG guitar in 2022 when I added “When The Levee Breaks” to the show. I love the 12 string for the slide guitar parts and for me adding in string section parts like violin and cello string section parts- with the special help of my finger slide!!

ABOVE: Wayne “Led” Sorbelli’s Zeppelin Experience Show March 12, 2022 at the Key West Theater with beloved White Double Neck SG guitar. I use it on the early 1900’s American standard “When the Levee Breaks” by Memphis Mini & Kansas Joe – I of course pay tribute here to the Led Zeppelin cover version of the song using Jimmy Page’s arrangement. However when it comes time for the solo, lean into the Derek Trucks solo from the PLAY FOR CHANGE version featuring John Paul Jones (Zep’s bassist for any LZ newbies)

Greetings my Led Zep loving friends!!! Here is a video one version of my Key West Led Zeppelin Tribute Band consisting of me, Wayne Sorbelli on guitars & effects, David Bryce Warren smashing the drum kit & sharing lead vocals with Karri Daley. Francois Gehin of MadDog Productions is covering our bass guitar duties as well as using his 9 string bass to add keyboards, flute, and other textures to our show.

Hers a little “ Whole Lotta Love”. I hope you enjoy the middle improve section (I don’t own a theremin but think using three delay peddles, violin bow, wah, pick and finger nail scrapes was a fair substitution). Pleas let me know what you think in the comments below pls. Suggestions or constructive criticism are as welcome as any positive feedback. I am always trying to grow better. Thank you.

I apologize for the sound quality being poor but It was recorded on my wife’s cell phone from the room we were recording the audio to the board for the filming or the movie our friend Cliff Rydel is making – documenting the making of a tribute band in the Florida Keys, starring Mike Allman Greg’s Son with of course an Allman

brothers Tribute band as well as a few other treats like Pink Floyd, Iron

butterfly, Eric Clapton & my Led Zep band.

Thanks for watching my little cover band work it’s way up towards a real tribute band over the next few months as I prepare for a Zep tribute show at the Key West theater on July 31st 2021 (the theater will be back to full capacity by then!! Hooray!!!)

I’ll be taking audition vid clips for lead vocal position – male or female or “whatever” is cool – email me your background info & a quick demo video.

I say my Led Zep act has “grownup” & is a teenager now. I started out with the idea to do a legit zep tribute band while playing in the Key West Rock Band called DWC STRAIN (the house band for the restaurant/music venue) themed after it’s multi-season famous HOTROD muscle car TV show. David Warren was drumming AND lead singing for that band – and we played an increasingly high majority of Led Zep sets upon the sheer amount of bulk requests.

Now I say “It” (my KEY WEST Led Zep tribute band idea) had grown into the Florida Keys Led Zeppelin Tribute Band (thanks to Cliff Rydell for imagining, executing & producing this movie about the Making of a real tribute band in the keys) This helped with my band’s transition into adolescence. Meaning it’s grown from simply the Key West Led Zeppelin Tribute Band to a full scale FLORIDA KEYS Led Zeppelin tribune band.

Like the Vikings we sing about in our opening song – “The Immigrant Song“. I plan on “claiming” the Keys territory with my Zeppelin Act by working hard enough to become the best at doing it!!

I can’t wait to meet you all again when it’s all grown up and playing somewhere like Key West Arena shows in the near & continuing future.
