1970  17th February Led Zeppelin, support band Barclay James Harvest(rescheduled from the 7th February due to Jimmy Page being involved in a car crash and sustaining minor facial injuries).  Barclay James Harvest, were snowed in at their village on the Yorkshire Moors (Saddleworth), and were unable to get their vehicles out.  They ended up coming by rail to Waverley Station, and their gear had to be shifted from there to the Usher Hall.  They used the famous Usher Hall organ during the concert.  Led Zeppelin were late onstage due to "enjoying themselves" at the North British Hotel.  Thank you to Alistair Adams ex Heriot-Watt Entertainments for the detailed info.
