Before becoming the many faces of rock in the seventies, Led Zeppelin was asked to perform at Woodstock. Of course, organizers reached out to the band, but manager Peter Grant decided that headling their own concert was a better option.
Instead, Zeppelin headed off to the Asbury Park Convention Hall in New Jersey, just south of Woodstock. They were there for two of the festival’s four days. If that never happened, Zeppelin would have been the biggest performance of Woodstock, no questions asked.
Despite not making it, they weren’t the only big-name band to skip out on Woodstock.
