I think Dread Zeppelin is a really funny band. They do Led Zeppelin songs with an Elvis impersonator as the lead singer and a reggae beat in the background.

They also change things about certain songs:

Immigrant Song: A very high-pitched version of the lead singer's voice is in the background whenever he does the "Aaaaaaaaaaah-ah" part.

Heartbreaker: They combine it with "Heartbreak Hotel."

Black Dog: Part of the guitar is exchanged with the theme from the Twilight Zone, they combine it with "You Ain't Nothin but a Hound Dog" and whenever he does the "ah, ah, ah ah, ah, ah..." part it's replaced with "Black dog, black dog, black dog..."

Stairway to Heaven: At the end, it starts rewinding to try to sound like it has backward messages. The song itself is hilarious as well.

Misty Mountain Hop: The regular guitar part is eventually replaced with the theme from the Batman cartoons.


Overall, I think it's a hilarious band, and my dad's friend actually saw them in concert once.

No, they've been around for a while. I'm not sure if they're still together or not. The CD I have, "5,000,000*" was released in 1991, I think.

Sounds like it'd be worth checking out.
