The tour commenced on 16 February and concluded on 29 February 1972. ( Led Zeppelin 's guitarist Jimmy Page had earlier toured Australia with The Yardbirds in January 1967 ). The original plan for this tour was for the group to stop off en route at Singapore for a concert on 14 February, but the local authorities refused their entry due to local laws banning males from wearing long hair. Led Zeppelin received generally good press coverage for this tour and black - and - white footage of some of their concert at Sydney on 27 February, along with a press party, were filmed by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and shown to a national audience. Some of this footage was later made available on the Led Zeppelin DVD, released in 2003. Part way through this tour, Jimmy Page shaved off his trademark beard, a look he adopted nearly two years before while recording Led Zeppelin III. He had the beard at Led Zeppelin 's concert in Melbourne 20 February, but is clean shaven at the band 's press party two days later. Page would remain clean shaven for the rest of the band 's career. All of the concerts on this tour except for one ( at Brisbane on 29 February ) were performed at open - air venues. The Melbourne performance at Kooyong Stadium on 20 February was cut short due to inclement weather. All concerts from this tour are available on unofficial CDs except for the Perth concert and show the band in fine form.
