Snowmass Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Marc- Plant agreed to reunite Zep for the 2007 O2 gig (which was phenomenal) to honor/benefit Armit Ertugan (foundation). The band (with Jason on drums) was tight and 65ish year old Plant sounded great as they tore through 'Good Times'.....'Kashmir'....'Stairway'...etc..... Anyone out there that would/could inspire Axl to reunite Guns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Diet Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Oh god not this shit again...Well, Plant at least can sing at that age, but they never really in a serious beef with each othermaking a paralell for GNR is totally pointless and retarded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Pink Floyd would be a closer match, those guys were the most bitter of enemies for the longest time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recklessroad Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 The truth is it would take more than I thought to get that done. The hate is coming from both sides not just Axl's side. They both still blame each other for all the shit that went down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheapJon Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 The Zeppelin guys don't hate each other, do they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 The reason that the O2 show happened was because past Led Zeppelin "one offs" had come off badly (it's not on the Live Aid DVD) as well as honoring the memory of Ahmet Ertegun. If David Geffen passed, would GNR reunite? Probably not, because there didn't seem to be the same association Ahmet had with Led Zep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowmass Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 I guess what I was getting at is is their anyone out there that Axl respects/looks so highly upon that would make him think about a one off show ala the Zep O2 deal. IE- If Freddy (RIP) were to have just passed say last week and the remaining Queen members etc...held that same Freddie show circa 2014 and asked Axl "plz reunite for the one show" would he have done it?

He can't do anything right in Axl's eyes. No matter how much compliments he gives, Axl still stays a stubborn fuck and slags him off with any chance he gets. I feel he just let it go after the RR HOF, he has been nice enough and isn't Axl's lapdog and rightly so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I can't remember the last time I read a compliment from Slash about Axl. Actually, I don't think he grew more bitter, he is just happy with the way things are now I guess. He is creating/writing/performing with a stable line-up of musicians with professional conduct in a friendly work environment. In light of recent Axl performances on YT, I don't think he should bother going out of his way to please such a spiteful person with horrible work ethic.

NachoLZ Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Yeah, he even twited happy bday to Axl, but it was to cool things down before the HOF show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bonham Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Led Zeppelin is better than all the other Classic Rock acts because they actually had the integrity to break up when John Bonham died. That's just one of the (big) reasons that they still have such Legendary status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The integrity Plant has for keeping the Zep legacy alive & well is so under appreciated. Dude coulda sold out (still could) but wouldn't. Zep was the 4 of them and that's it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR DOOM Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I look at Sabbath (well, Iommi and Butler) back with Ozzy and I can't help but respect Plant even more.Better to bow out while you still have it (and by that I mean Ozzy doesn't have it anymore)...I understand and respect them getting Jason Bohnam to play with them for the one off reunions over the years but it really isn't Led Zeppelin, Jason kinda sucks IMO.
