but change the portfolio is!
Have always loved the song. First time seeing the video. Thanks!
Did you ever see their show at Laura Secord Secondary School? Great stuff. They were just kids.
Geddy mentioned it in his autiobiography or I wouldn’t have known to look for it.

Trump on Rogan podcast, since it’s still hard to find via google
Maybe that is saying that you should be using the superior internet browser I've been using almost exclusively for the last 11 years (since 2013) -- BING!

Bing is not a browser, Vinny, but a search engine. Although, you may be onto something. I found the video (recovered it, actually, because I'd watched it before youtube started hiding it) by using the Brave browser. I don't know what Brave uses to search (EDIT: they use their own, Brave Search), but they took me right there. DuckDuckGo had failed.
Meanwhile, Youtube itself was acquired long ago by google. So if they really wanted to hide it...
On closer inspection, I don't see the proper thumbnail in your image of Bing search results. I don't think any of those results are the actual 3-hour interview. Those are just links to news about the video, which even Google search supplies.

Of course, Bing is not a browser but a search engine. Inexplicably used the wrong word when I was making a comparison to Google the search engine.
When I searched again now ... the whole thing is showing up as the second item:

Also, are not Bing / Microsoft severe competitors to Google? Do they do anything at all together?

I've read none of this thread, ever. I feel like I spend enough time on YouTube as it is.
But I have a question. Does anyone else feel that their YT feed has really gone to hell in the past several months?
Like this: If I happen to watch a video about someone who found an old car in a barn, then my feed will be just filled with the same kind of thing. Watch a video of a kitten messing with a sleepy golden retriever? Same again. Dancing cockatoo? Latest election poll? TED Talk?
No matter what I happen to sample, my feed is then filled with it and I'm a marked man. Not just a little fill, a lot. They always did this to some extent, but I feel that it's way out of hand and is making their feed a lot narrower and way less useful.
Can confirm the YouTube behavior. When I watch a video on a topic or from a creator I don't want to see again, I go into my watch history and remove it. That seems to help quite a bit.

Yeah me too.
I haven't tried just deleting all history. That seems extreme.

What say you?
Not really experienced that issue. But what I regularly experience is that when I have a Lex on I'm having to skip an ad every 4, 5 minutes.

1) I can spend a lot of time on YouTube. Lex Fridman podcasts are quite long. They used to just play. Now it's an ad every 3, 4 minutes. That is disruptive plus required me to wait for some ads to end before I can skip them and then the time to click skip. It makes it so I can no longer listen to them when outside with my wireless headphones as I have not means of skipping ads.
I've been listening to a lot of Virgin Rock today and there were those ads again.
Caused me to pay $140 for an annual subscription to YouTube Premium to not have to put up with those ads. Already is quickly paying for itself. I can think of so many things I spend $140 in a year on and end up getting no value at all from them. So it will be a highly worthwhile purchase.
2) This particular Virgin Rock:
Greta Van Fleet, Highway Tune - A Classical Musician’s First Listen and Reaction
I think I'd several times heard them compared to Led Zeppelin (maybe the first time by Dualstow here?). But I'd never seen it.
I'm hearing it on this song, particularly the lead singer.
Finally, I find her song analyses highly entertaining and informative. She certainly hears things that I'd never notice. The best I can do is follow her explanations.
She is extremely perceptive.

I listened to the first five minutes. There are two categories of people who still don’t hear Led Zeppelin I*’s Robert Plant in that track: one is the band itself, and the other is deaf people. Or whatever the current politically correct word is, but I think they prefer “deaf.”
I agree with her assessment that it doesn’t quite sound like it came out of the classic rock era, even if there might be some bias because she just read that they formed in 2012.
I can boil down their sound to one word: derivative. They’re derivative. Some say that Vampire Weekend is a band born from that fine Paul Simon album. Greta van Fleet (von Zeppelin?) was born from Zep’s first album, even though they’ll never admit it.
*ok I & II. The “ohhhhhhh” almost sounds like a sample from Whole Lotta Love, which is from II. Ending of Bron Yr Stomp (from III), Zeppelin’s love song to a blue-eyed dog.
6½ minutes into How Many More Times (from I)

I don't think I ever knew what a HUGE Led Zeppelin fan you must be?

Vin, I spent so much of my youth listening to them that I never put them on these days, unless something like this comes up. I’m still discovering other bands of the era that I missed out on because Zeppelin Zeppelin Zeppelin.
But nowadays I mosly like those nature sounds videos with babbling brooks and birdsong. Sincerely.

I saw them live twice -- in 1969 and 1970.
Regarding how my music has changed?
I loved heavy rock through my early 20s.
One night I was with my sister and brother-in-law who were 6, 7 years older than me and in their late 20s at the time. They were already into the easy listening type music. So in my normal naivete I thought that was a typical progression. That that is where your musical tastes eventually go to.
But I kept on loving that heavy music. I told this to a friend in puzzlement as to why I was not following their path and she told me that it was because I just loved that music and always would.
I have not dropped anything from when I started listening at 12 years old. I keep expanding the genres. Songs that I first heard 50, 60 years ago still sound just as good today.

Oh, same. I haven’t snobbily moved on to jazz or something, although I do love jazz. I’ll still listen to the Carpenters if they come on the radio (or happen to be preinstalled in the mp3 player I got from China).
I also stupidly stopped listening to some musicians deemed uncool by my contemporaries (or South Park) and have gotten back into them because I’m old enough not to give a fig. The most glaring example would be Phil Collins. He just got too popular and became a victim of his own success, but he really is a wonderful drummer. And singer and songwriter.

1) I cannot stand anything Genesis and anything related, i.e., Phil Collins, other popular male. For me they epitomize all that rock is not. They would not know rock and roll if it hit them in the head. Though I did admire Phil Collins for playing on both sides of the ocean on that Saturday 1985 Live Aid. He played drums for Led Zeppelin's set?
2) I've always been strongly independent regarding my music. Not affected by others taste but thinking that there is a problem with their tastes if they do not like what I like and like what I do not.
