I'm glad these fellows are still able to get around and hit the road.

But even if I did get out to see them, I'd still be thinking of what was probably
one of their earliest video works (Led Zep enthusiasts pleace correct me if I'm wrong).

About 20 years ago (can it be possible?) my brother and I went to rock-and-roll double feature
at the campy Will Rogers Theater in Oklahoma City.

The main feature was a full-length "rockumentary" of Lyndard Skynard (I think sponsored
by Pepsi). It was a very nice coverage of the band and their music.

But what TOTALLY BLEW ME AWAY was a "video"...this was before MTV...of Led Zeppelin
doing "Dazed And Confused". IIRC, this video was shot at a nightclub in London.
Maybe it was my youth...but it was a great video/audio portrayal of the song...
and no drugs needed to get the full effect!!!

Even at this remove...I'd say it was just about the most concentrated, intense
musical rendition I've seen captured on film...but of course that's a subjective opinion.

And this is from a fellow who was a Who fanatic (saw them three times).

Bullshit....for so many reasons. IF they do a tour involving John Paul Jones, it will most likely be called Page, Plant & Jones....just as 1995's Page/Plant tour was called Page & Plant. They have often stated, correctly, that there is NO Led Zeppelin without John Bonham. Another big red flag is that Page and Plant have often stated, correctly, that Jason Bonham SUCKS as a drummer. They agreed to play a short set with him at LiveAid to help raise money for charity. No other reason. IF there is to be a "reunion" they will most likely use the kid they used on the Page/Plant tour, who plays eerily like Bonzo did....which no other drummer alive can replicate any better. Not the chops, the feel.

God I hope not, my jumpin the fence days are long over. Never the less, if they make it to Hawaii, I'm there.

[HAL9000]

I'd rather see Dread Zeppelin.

Parking lot tickets would begin at $200

Robert, 54, Jimmy, 58, and 56-year-old John Paul met two weeks ago at the offices of their management firm Trinifold.

It sure is depressing to hear that a band that I grew up with (and worshipped) is so damn old! Where have the years gone?

[Tuor]

As a proud owner of the Led Zepplin 10-CD Box set, I implore the band members: Don't do this. Try to save some dignity and not be like the Rolling Stones, or the Grateful Dead, or any of those loser 80's bands that are now playing old songs in smarmy casinos.

You went out on top (well, except John Bonham) -- stay that way.

I saw them in '77 at the L.A. Forum, and my ears are still ringing to this day. (It was a great show though). I had tickets to see them again in '79, but Bonham died a couple weeks before the show, and they broke up (as they should've).

21st century geezer rock is a freakin' joke.

[AgentEcho]

I love their music, they broke up when I was 10. I'd pay $1000. I don't care about their age, they are incredible musicians. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE COME TO SAN ANTONIO.

[nmh]

Who cares. He looks like an old hippie. Thankfully I outgrew my enjoyment of his music years ago. What a waste of a human being.

Who cares?

It's been a long time since I rock and rolled!

I saw them closing night at the forum. They played two shows in frisco and then John died.
They were the greatest concert I ever saw and I saw lot of them. I took a bus there and thumbed back to vegas from the concert. Two chicks picked us up after the show and told us they would give us a ride to the freeway where we could thumb to I15. They dumped us in the middle of nowhere. My mind wasnt right or I would not have fallen for it.
We slept on someones front yard till sunrise.
The show was fantastic. They played for almost 5 hours. When Bonham did his drum solo the drum set rose up and he started barely hitting till it got way up in the air and then he started pounding and the drums were synthesized? I dunno the right word for it but it was new for drums and the sound just reverated around the forum. It was great.
They were my first album and I have always felt they were the best band ever.
Nobody in music today does anything close to what they did.

If Page can still play Dazed and Confused note for note on that Gibson, I'll be there. I saw the Zep twice in the 70's here in Indy and they were as tight musically as any band I ever saw. Page's mastery and vituosity of the guitar is worth the price of admission - he is without a doubt the most technically proficient guitar player I've ever seen. (His sound isn't my favorite but his technique is unmatched.) Page, Beck, Santana and Buck Dharma were the best guitar players I ever saw.

[MotleyGirl70]

Are they still pot heads?

The rumors you heard about Zeppelin are not true. Yes John Paul Jones did indeed make up with Jimmy and Robert however the rumors came out on October 2002, the British press reported that Robert Plant and John Paul Jones had reconciled after a 20-year feud which had kept Led Zeppelin apart, and rumours surfaced of a reunion tour in 2003. This was later denied by Plant and Page’s management company.

In 2007, rumours yet again surfaced of a possible reunion in which Q107, Toronto’s classic rock radio station, reported that Led Zeppelin would jump on the “reunion bandwagon” following months of countless reunions from classic bands in 2007. John Paul Jones himself reportedly stated that the band is considering a reunion of some sorts on the radio broadcast but representatives from the radio station deny even speaking to Jones and claim the report to be false.

If “Led Zeppelin” should ever decide to have a reunion tour the tickets would be the most exspensive tickets ever to be sold for a live performance and we’re not talking $100 dollars more like $1000 dollars for the nose bleads and as much as $10,000 dollars and up for front row.

My thoughts on a reunion tour would be to have “Led Zeppelin” do what Elvis did in the early 70’s and that is to have “Led Zeppelin” perform “live” via satellite world wide this way everyone in the world would have the experence to see this true rock legend perform one last time. There were only two other bands in rock history to secure-”The Beatles” and “Pink Floyed”. Make no doubt about it that “Led Zeppelin” was and still is to this very day “The Greatest Rock Legend that ever happened in Music History”.

[Andonius_99]

I’d pay it just to be able to say that I saw them...hell, I didn’t “discover” them until about 2 years ago...oh, what I’ve missed!

[Straight Vermonter]

I’m a big fan but Plant’s voice has been gone for a long time. It is actually a little embarrassing watching him try to sing now.

I'd be happy to pay $100. I'm sure they'll go for much more.

After the breakup, I figured the next LZ would come along. But it looks like they were a once-in-a-lifetime band.
