------------
The world’s first rock ‘n’ roll theme park has filed for bankruptcy after only nine months of being open.
The $400 million Led Zeppelin roller coaster park in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina opened only last spring but never had enough money for promotion according to Jim Olecki, the park spokesman.
Experts have claimed that the park, which opened after seven years of planning, including participations from the remaining Led Zeppelin band members Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones, couldn’t have picked a worse time to open due to the current credit crisis and a drop of tourism due to gas prices last year.
