Zint Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 as reported on Blabbermouth:According to World Entertainment News Network, rock legends LED ZEPPELIN will reportedly reunite for a one-off memorial concert in honor of their late record boss before embarking on a world tour.ZEPPELIN has only performed a handful of concerts, including Live Aid in 1985, since its split in 1980 following the death of drummer John Bonham.But, if the reports are tp b believed, singer Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones will re-group alongside Bonham's son Jason for a special concert in memory of Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun in London.A source says, "Page, Plant and Jones spoke and agreed to do the memorial concert. They are waiting for a definite date."And no one can quite believe it, but during discussions about the concert they all gave the green light to a tour if it all does well and they don't all fall out."It has been hoped for and denied for years. But this is the closest they have ever come to a reunion tour. The feeling is that this is going to happen next year." Ertegun died in December 2006 after seven weeks in a coma following a fall at a ROLLING STONES concert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DopeSickGirl Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 After all the years of holding out on a reunion I think it'd be a shame for them to get back together now. Just my opinion.xDSGx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They HAVE to be watching Genesis, The Police and the ageless Stones just rake in the bucks and think to themselves, enough is enough alreadyMore power to them - I'd pay a pretty penny to see Page/Plant/Jones perform together, that's for sure.

KBear Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 (edited) My feeling usually is, when a group of guys have great chemistry then I think they should be playing and writing together. Especially when time starts to become a factor. It's amazing how much respect these guys have for John that they'd give it all up, but at the same time life is short and giving up something that great could end up being something they regret. Maybe they could have continued under another name to preserve John's legacy, although I know it runs deeper than that.This is why I want to see a GN'R reunion. But at the same time it needs to live up to what the band once was, and it can't be half assed or it'll look like a joke. I want them to release new material, otherwise they'd look like a bunch of has beens touring around and playing only the old hits. That's what washed up bands do. A great VR album and some cool performances thus far reduces my desire for a reunion though! Edited June 26, 2007 by KBear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCG Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 (edited) I'm happy that they're not going to reunite - Led Zeppelin is one of my favorite bands, but I feel that if they toured it would tarnish their legendary image. Led Zeppelin died the day John Bonham died - they should let it rest. I like the fact that they haven't toured since they split up, and aren't doing things for the sake of cash-grabbing. I'd rather just remember them for their great days as the four, Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and John Bonham.
