Led Zeppelin Reunion

Thorpe · 09-12-2007, 07:44 AM

Word is they are reuniting and playing at least one show in Britain. I for one am fucking excited. More news to follow, an announcement is due later today.

You son of a bitch.

If this doesn't happen now, I'll fucking murder you for giving me blue balls.

Asmadai · 09-12-2007, 08:32 AM

Word also is, that if this one-time show does good, there MAY be a tour in the future.

A tour could follow if the concert, at London's O2 Arena, is successful.

Let's be honest, there is no way in hell that it won't be successful so why don't they just announce a damn tour!

Quineloe · 09-12-2007, 10:39 AM

I don't think they're talking about economic success

CalhoonJugganaut · 09-12-2007, 03:09 PM

Well, if they don't end up getting back together there is always the bad ass cover band ZoSo touring all over the place

Fammaden · 09-12-2007, 04:17 PM

Hasn't this already happened at least once already? Not a full blown tour but an appearance or two at festivals/benefits and the like? I personally don't much go in for such things. Its hard for a bunch of aging men to really turn the chemistry on again justlikethat after being solo for all those years and it usually turns into an overpriced, overhyped nostalgia trip. But carry on.

FulorianC · 09-12-2007, 05:44 PM

I dunno, the Heaven and Hell tour was incredibly awesome. Ronnie James Dio is well in his mid 60s, and hadn't worked with the rest of the band in almost 15 years. They were completely together and making some great music when I saw them in May.

Sabbath and Zeppelin are pretty much analogues... so why not?

Fammaden · 09-12-2007, 09:18 PM

Well a real Zeppelin tour would be what, 25+ years in the making? I just can't see it being the second coming, though it might be a good time, I KNOW it will be priced way higher than it is worth to me.

Menoz · 09-12-2007, 09:20 PM

The second coming would be Pink Floyd's reunion tour. But that'll never happen.

Fammaden · 09-12-2007, 09:35 PM

The Momentary Lapse and Division Bell tours were quite good though, and they didn't take place multiple decades later. Granted, no Waters, but still, they had some integrity. Zeppelin? Hard for me to swallow at this point.

My God...according to CNN:

"Around 20 million people have already applied online to buy tickets for the November 26 concert at London's O2 Arena with the Web site crashing as it struggled to cope with 80,000 visitors a minute, promoters said."

Heard that on the radio this morning. That is just insane.
