Zeppelin Tour (http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003676224)

If everyone donates at least $20 to me, I should be able to get a ticket. Just PM me and I'll give you my paypal address.

Don't think that $20 is all you can spend. Feel free to donate as much as you can, as this is a very good and very important charity. It's dear to my heart.

Do it for the children ... the children.

[Koreelove]

aw man, I WISH I could go to this. Damn. I did see Page and Plant twice, but it's not the same I suppose.

[S,S,FH]

dude. you should totally get a sata hat and a bell and stand outside stores. :lol

[ryangibson]

dude. you should totally get a sata hat and a bell and stand outside stores. :lol

If it came down to it, I would NEVER go to another DMB show or another Alabama football game again if I could go to just one Zeppelin concert. I'd get a santa hat and a bell in a heartbeat if I knew it would get me tickets :lol

[ThePrestige]

Wow... I cant believe this....

I hope you get 3000 dollars for the trip.

[Hudak-Budak]

Ryan, rumor has it they'll be headlining Bonnaroo. That means you and me are gonna be there, buddy.

[ryangibson]

Ryan, rumor has it they'll be headlining Bonnaroo. That means you and me are gonna be there, buddy.

Dude, if that's true, we are there. As soon as tickets are available and dates are announced, let me know!

[Hudak-Budak]

Dude, if that's true, we are there. As soon as tickets are available and dates are announced, let me know!

Definitely. Rumor has Zeppelin and Metallica performing, which is worth the price of tickets alone.

[Koreelove]

Way to kill all of our dreams, Gibson.




Jerk.

[ryangibson]

I know. It made me a little nauseous when I read it. My luck, if they tour it will be in the North East and on the West Coast.

[ryangibson]

[Hudak-Budak]

[ryangibson]

Well. This never happened. Sadly.

[McGinnisM]

There is always hope that it might!

[Rob D]

nah, plant said no dice b/c he wants to tour w/ krauss. bunch of bull if you ask me. the people want zep!

[ryangibson]

I care not to see Plant/Krauss.

[Nancies >> WH]

I care not to see Plant/Krauss.


Saw Plant/Krauss in Boston on 6/5, and was very pleasantly surprised. However, RP did go off stage for about 30 minutes in the middle of the show which was SUPER weak.

Overall, it was $50 well spent, though.

[thesavageguy]

Stop bumping this thread!

You keep getting me all excited!

[ryangibson]

:lol I know, I keep hoping someone has good news.

[Hudak-Budak]

With all the rumors being squashed, it makes me feel lucky that I got to see Page & Plant when I did.

[McGinnisM]

Prayers do come true. Next summer, start the countdown!

[Mave Datthews!]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT.

Speechless.

[McGinnisM]

THank you!

I was wondering why it took 5 hours for a response to this magical news!

[Mave Datthews!]

I wish I had seen it five hours ago!

Although, now my pantaloons are soiled - but I'm going home in 10 minutes... so, perhaps it's better I didn't.






HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!! :banana

[clwatt3]

How did I not see this earlier today? So I wonder what the closest show to the Burgh will be?

[thesavageguy]

Opening band? Any guesses?

Can't freakin' wait for this!

[McGinnisM]

I'm guessing it will be a bunch of opening acts, varying based on location. I read on another board that's it's going to be a June-December world tour, and S. Fairey is being contacted to commission tour posters, which will break the banks even more.

Is it next summer already??

[Sodamnlucky1992]

Can I get a link to a report of this? It's not on Zeppelin site so

[Sodamnlucky1992]

Oh, I guess I should of read the first page. Sorry

[McGinnisM]

I was a little of it not being on the LZ site, or Rolling Stone but I guess it's legit, actually for the sake of everyone in the world who has ever heard their songs I PRAY IT'S LEGIT

[Hudak-Budak]

I would sell each and every one of your souls for tickets.

[McGinnisM]

Ok, sorry but I have bad news. Plant is now denying the whole thing.....

[trpnwillie]

Not even an hour ago I was talking to our Human Resources Assistant about the good news. We talked about how cool it would be to go.

:bitch

[clwatt3]

My dreams are crushed now...

[Hudak-Budak]

Led Zeppelin: "We Will Tour and Record Without Robert Plant"
Guitarist Jimmy Page's manager says the legendary band will replace Plant.


After months of confirmations, denials, counter-denials, and, uh, Twisted Sister Dee Snider's thoughts, the manager of Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page has confirmed that the rock titans plan to reform for a new tour and album sans singer Robert Plant.
Peter Mensch spoke to the BBC about the remaining members' plans: "They did the show with Robert Plant; they had a really good time rehearsing, the three of them, before Robert showed up. And they decided that if they could find a singer that they thought would fit their bill…that they'd make a record and go on tour. We just need to find a singer."

However, Mensch remained mum on the potential candidates for the position, which have been rumored to include Soundgarden's Chris Cornell and Myles Kennedy of God-rock Creed-castoffs Alter Bridge. But he assured fans of one thing: "It's gonna be a long and difficult process. And we're not soliciting people! So don't call me about it!"

[mray10]

Worst idea ever.

[S,S,FH]

Worst idea ever.

really is horrible. :bitch

WHAT.
THE.
FUCK.

I can't even begin to think how terrible that would sound.

[S,S,FH]

it would be like when cornell joined the guys of rage then changed them into a whole new thing (audioslave), imagine a new led zeppelin.... :glare

[McGinnisM]

This is terrible news.

Here was my 2009 prediction, LZ related.

I am predicting that after all the BS is over, Plant will come back and Led Zep will do a world tour, lasting just under two full years and sales will exceed 1 billion dollars, every show sells out everywhere.

Axl Rose realizes what he is missing, all ties with the GNR are mended, and Slash, Axl and Duff are back tearing it up, debuting around Halloween.

2009 is going to be the biggest year ever for concerts and major tours, led by LZ, GNR, Dr. Dre, Eminem, etc.

You heard it here first!

If I see you in Vegas, remind me to spill a drink on you by accident for posting that disgusting picture.

Rule #6: Do not sit in the corner and sulk. It draws attention in a negative way. Draw attention to yourself, but on your own terms.:cool

Exactly.

There won't be any "new" Led Zeppelin, though. They'll just tour with some shlub until Plant feels like coming out to play again. He's occupied with other stuff right now, he's happy doing so and I respect that. I doubt there are any hard feelings there, but they can't just expect him to drop everything and come running.

yeah, not sure why they can't wait just a year or two like he asked. must say the plant and Alison Krauss tour was AMAZING! hope they do it again.

[McGinnisM]

More news on Rolling Stone, all rumors now shot down.

Why not wait two years? They are OLD! They can't be waiting forever!

[DMBTattoo]

yeah i heard this was finished too, not gonna happen
