While he talks on the issue, Jimmy Page was saying that it was a premeditated operation. He also remembered how the concert ended.
Jimmy Page wrote:
“On this day in 1971, I played with Led Zeppelin in the Velodrome in Milan but only managed a few numbers before the police let loose with a salvo of teargas that flooded the audience and band.
“It was clearly a premeditated operation; we lost some equipment that night and also the enthusiasm to play in Italy again.”
In the comments of the post, a couple of fans stated that it was a shameful incident. Many of them cursed people who did that unacceptable thing.
