Closest thing I could find Googling is that according to a comment here, the boys were at Fillmore West at the same time that Zep was at Winterland:

it's interesting looking at that list of show dates for '69 LZ, more for the fact that to me it is amazing how much of the year the band spent in the USA; now, i'm not super knowledgeable about the history of LZ, but i imagine that in 1969 they were not the behemoth that they were in the 1970s, and therefore at that time did not have pockets full of cash and red carpets everywhere (i could be amazingly incorrect of course); i mention this because in my knowledge of current bands who hail from Europe, who i have a particular interest in someday seeing live, obviously here in the USA, i don't see these bands when they do happen to come to the USA staying all that long, usually just a quick tour, perhaps a month; i do not believe it is because their particular tour is not going well, or because the fanbase is small, i think it's more the fact that it's just too damn costly, even for bands who don't necessarily fly under the radar

it's easy to get older and fall into the trap of 'oh things are so much more expensive these days,' and while that is of course a given and a result of a developing and expanding economy, the example of LZ being able to stay here stateside for so much of the year, and obviously being able to afford it, highlights just how far out-of-reach certain basic necessities of life and living, such as food and lodging and transportion have really gotten beyond the reach of the everyday average worker, to the point where it has reached the level of being a travesty and perhaps it's time that we start listening to other voices here in this country rather than the same old self-involved greedy politicos
