Apparently doing a one off gig with Bonzo's son on drums. Awesome! Let's hope they do a good job and decide to tour.

When and where?
^^ that's a sweet guitar, bro. Why don't you make more use of it?
Anyway. Why is this sooo underwhelming? Is it because they took so long? Zepp was my favorite band before I discovered Hendrix, and they're still right up there with Hendrix for me, but I really despise Page, man. He's an obscenely litigious individual and seems to be all about the money, much like Jagger is in the Rolling Stones. I think that he recently sought out royalties from a bar band for playing their music.....seriously. You'd think that he'd have some shame and ironic sense of humor with them being taken to court for copyright issues pertaining to more than 26 songs from their discography....namely SWTH, which is a complete ripoff note-for-note.
Anyway. I'll be waiting for this with bated breath. I've always been a huge fan of Plant and his solo ****, and I consider JPJ to be one of the most underappreciated musicians of all time, so I'm really excited to be seeing them back together, but Page?.......err. If it was only him and his Crowley's Cock sucking ass that drowned on his own vomit instead of Bonzy......jk

Yeah, I can't remember if it was Plant or Page but my dad told me that in the 70's one of them was coming onto his sister (that would be my aunty) in some bar and when she told him in a dignified manner to "**** off" he was like "WHAT! You've just refused to sleep with moi, Robert Plant/Jimmy Page!? Do you realise who I am?"

I don't know much about whether Page is or isn't a dick. I do know that he has done some highly memorable guitar work though. I also think it's pretty fair to rip something off if you realise it's potential more, although you'd have to be a prick to be hypocritical with it. I don't know where he supposedly stole stuff from, but it surely wasn't from anything as complete or well executed, and we probably wouldn't have heard it if he hadn't. Kinda like how Chuck Berry heard his famous guitar intro being played by a pianist, realised it rocked and put it on guitar. There's credit due in that too, even if it isn't exactly original composing.
Anyway apparently 20 million+ people applied for the tickets. It's therefore pretty clear they could do a stadium filling tour and I'd definitely want to see it.

^^I think that Grohl has offered his services before. He's like the biggest Bonzo fan in the whole universe, man. He used to play Bonham stuff for 12hrs straight when he was a kid, and he's got Bonham tattoos all over his body and ****, man.
hurhurhur.....man, your aunt must've been quite the HAWTie in her day, eh? A big 'ole sturdy English ass and humongous hangers, eh? For either of those (I think that Plant was married around this time....not saying that that'd deter 'em from fooling around or nothing) to be having a go at her, she'd have atleast to be a ******* 9 on the gorgeous scale, eh?

Listen to that link, bro.
If I was given the choice of either seeing Zep or Van Halen right now, I'd really have a hard time choosing between the two, man. Common sense would dictate that I go with the Zep, right? I mean, their concert is only a one-off and it's a momentus musical occasion and all, but I just don't know what we'll be getting from them, man. On the other hand, the early reviews from the VH reunion tour have all been unanimously positive.

Thank you sir, that is interesting. They should definitely have credited those guys, no doubt about it. However, I actually find that I really like some of their covers the most anyway, when they're playing live and throw in some ol' well known classic rock 'n roll numbers which would sound pretty lame if most bands did them, but they 'zep em up. It's more about how they do it than whether they wrote it.
But yeah, you're right. That is criminal not to credit those artists they ripped off. Still didn't make it clear exactly who was responsible though. Peer pressure and management pressure could have had an effect so I'd still not be hating any of them individually. At least one of them's surely in wrong though I'll agree.

^^ Good points, bro.
Most people seem to be worried about Plant's voice more than anything else, but as a dude who's been closely following his solo career, let me tell yah, the ****er's voice has held up incredibly well and I don't at all expect it to be a weak link in the performance or nothing. I'm most worried about Page and Jason, man.
Imagine them including this track into their setlist?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2uSn3Y_doY
Not in a million years, eh? That's gotta be their most underappreciated track, eh?
Anyway. I just hope that they don't embarrass themselves and tarnish their enduring and majestic name through this reunion, man.

Agreed. Thanks for the link. It's so nice I just took the time to learn to play it.
It's so underappreciated that I'd embarrassingly never even heard it before... it's times like this I regret not having yet made the effort to find entire discographies of my favourite artists, because I'm sure there's some more gems out there by various people that don't make it on their 'best of' compilations and stuff, you know? I really should take some time to expand my collection.
Good to know Plant's voice is ok. I think they may be all individually fine, but I still wonder if the band can actually come together in the same way again? Even if they all perform well, I wonder if this time it will seem more rehersed and less natural. It's not like it's easy to replace Bonham snr, so I'm not sure if they will be able to capture their original live feel, or end up sounding more like a tribute band.

^^ Well put, bro. I totally concur with your concerns on that second paragraph.
Regarding that song and their discography....don't be ashamed, bro. I don't think that they've ever played that one live. I've spent countless hrs searching for a live version of it, but I guess I'll have to be content with that studio cut, as it sorta has a live feel about it anyway
I've got that completist, obsessive disorder passed down to me by my mother, so if I'm really into a particular band or whatever, I'll go to the ends of the Earth in order to attain what it is that I'm missing, you know? Luckily, with the Zep I didn't have to do much, really. All their studio work plus a ton of their bootlegs were passed down to me as a birthday present by my cousin when he was going off to college seven years ago.

GOOD GOD! WHAT A RHYTHM SECTION!!! That ******* bassline makes me salivate, I swear! And Page has never sounded better.....that's a Tele he's playing, right?

It was postponed until the 10th of this month because Page broke his finger.
I hear they might be doing some festival or something in America after that too. Not sure if that's confirmed or not though.
Yeah that looks like a Tele. Cool song.

Yeah I really hope they do. Apparently they are going to play for 2 hours which is cool. http://www.nme.com/news/led-zeppelin/32934
It would be rather cool if the whole thing ended up snowballing into a tour, after originally apparently being a one off 40 minutes. They could never have played for that time though, they have way too much material.
