i’ve been wondering why the fuck the greatest rock band ever never reunited after their drummer john bonham’s death, but finally jimmy page and john paul jones will suck it up and play with robert plant once again.

i’ve been waiting for this for a while. plant tried a solo vocal album that sucked but was a decent attempt. i just cannot wait to hear jimmy page tear up a guitar again he is definitely one of the greatest of all time and i’m glad he’s not going to let his talent go to waste.

i totally agree with you man. but, this is our generations chance at seeing a great band live, even if it isn’t their peak performance. i still have a great time seeing the allman brothers every time they come to buffalo, and it’s only about 1/2 the original band. they fucking rock year after year.

This is all fine and good, but can Plant still hit the notes like he used to? I doubt it. That’s one of the reasons I wasn’t too excited when Van Halen got back together (besides the absence of Michael Anthony). Many of these old rock singers can’t deliver the goods like they used to. One of the only ones who still can is Rob Halford.

I’m also a little less interested in Zeppelin these days after learning how much of their “signature” material is lifted from songs from other lesser-known bands, and I’ve heard the songs they ripped off, it is blatent. Stairway to Heaven is a good example.

If they went on tour again they might as well start printing their own money cause no matter how much they charge to see that show they will be sold out instantly.

they’re on the cover of the most recent Rolling Stone Magazine and there’s a long writeup interviewing the remaining members and Bonham’s son…

the guy that worked with them organizing yesterday’s show is also trying to get them to go back tour…i dont know the exact figures, but it was something like $100/ticket, XX shows with XX,XXX or more tickets each time = $300,000,000 gross…hard to turn down an opportunity like that…

anyone know who is playing drums?

and zep did rip off a lot of old black blues musicians who no one had ever heard of… but everyone rips off everyone else in the music biz that’s just how it goes. plus they stayed solid up until their last studio album (coda), where most, actually almost all loose a lot of steam after doing it for 15 plus years. :tup: zeppelin fucking shreads
