The band earn £150 for this appearance which was sheduled for 2am (technically Nov. 10th). An office memo from Jimmy Page's personal collection states: "Saturday 9th November 1968. Roundhouse, Chalk Farm Road, London, N.W.1.  Arrive by 1:30am (Sun. morning) in time to go on stage by 2am. 1x50 minute spot."

Jimmy Page (January 1969): "(At the Roundhouse), we did alright. We only played a couple of dates in London - The Roundhouse and Marquee. The Marquee was fantastic - just great. We were totally knocked out when we came out of there. We thought they might have had it in for us because at the that date, we were still calling ourselves the Yardbirds - we hadn't thought of using Led Zeppelin yet."

Rafael de Swarte from the support act, Tyres, comments on the gig:  “It was an exciting time, and just before Zeppelin headed to the States. John Lee Hooker was hanging around backstage watching. It was a good gig, except at one point the guitarist was left playing nothing – his lead had come out. We look around and John was peering around the curtain looking at us, with the lead curled around his foot! We never worked out if he was joking, clumsy or trying to get us to stop.”
