RE: Led Zeppelin w/ Robert Plant = Nevermind
Now I know why 1.) never to trust 99% of British newspapers and 2.) no one really knows what Led Zeppelin is going to do. After details once again emerged last week that the English outfit is well on its way to a full-fledged, worldwide reunion tour with frontman Robert Plant, comes comments to the contrary from Mr. “Anti-Zeppelin” himself. In a statement released over the weekend, Plant officially denied reports that he has agreed to tour and/or record with his fellow bandmates.
“It’s both frustrating and ridiculous for this story to continue to rear its head when all the musicians that surround the story are keen to get on with their individual projects and move forward…”
See: Robert Plant & Allison Krauss…
“I wish Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham nothing but success with any future projects.”
See: Replacement singer…
Of course, this is just the latest in a series of unnecessary hoopla following the band’s one off performance in London back in December. Then came the Bonaroo rumors, Canadian tour dates, and Foo Fighther excitement, all which ended up being taking up a whole lot of newspapers and webspace for no apparent reason at all.
And the worst part? We’ll keep covering the whole thing until 1.) the impossible happens or 2.) um…, not sure.
Robert Plant & Allison Krauss 2008 Tour Dates:
09/30 - Portland, OR @ Theatre of the Clouds
10/01 - Seattle, WA @ WaMu Theatre at Qwest Fields Event Center
10/03 - San Francisco, CA @ Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival

10/05 - Saratoga, CA @ The Mountain Winery
yeah…please stop reporting on this until we have something firm…my friends and i dont pay attention to nme “news” at all anymore because its so often just another rumour (british spelling!) mill..dont wanna see cos see the same fate…
Buck, we actually quoted The Sun in the originally article, not NME. But doesn’t matter much. All were equally wrong.
You gave the Sun too much credit in that earlier post as it was.
Oh well…I’ll improve.
i think all fans have the same dream of one day seeing this reunion happen, the rumors prove this. this means that with any glimmer of hope will always get attention, and the dream stays alive. so please keep reporting i want to know.
I agree with josh.
wasn’t G’n'R’s last 15 years of their career based on rumors? And I’m always thirsting for more. BTW I probably wouldn’t watch sports if it weren’t for unsubstantiated rumours. ie- Adam Schefter, NFL Network.
fair enough…looks like im outnumbered…
Rumors rule… they’re more exciting than reality.
And I was just busting on you about the Sun Alex. I’m all about papers that include a naked girl on page three almost every day.
Here we go…again.
