Acrylic Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 For a concert in November! http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070912/music_nm/zeppelin_dc Too bad they're not coming to the states. You lucky Londer....ers.
Sabretooth Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Those damned lucky Londoners. I'd love to see Led Zeppelin in a concert, they're one of the forefathers of art!
Fish.Stapler Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 My dad works for U.S. Air...we just may have to hop a plane to London (for free/cheap kthxbi )
Q Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 I guess I'll have to settle for the DVD, but this is still great news. @Fish.Stapler: If you go I want a bootleg.
Mace MacLeod Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 I'd love to see Led Zeppelin in a concert, they're one of the forefathers of art!If this was 1977 and not 2007, I'd heartily agree. How do you replace John Bonham, though? But for the record, I'd trade front row seats and an ounce of BC Hydro for nosebleed seats at another Black Sabbath reunion show. Their headlining gig at Ozzfest (1999? 2000?): Best Concert Ever.
Pie™ Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 If this was 1977 and not 2007, I'd heartily agree. How do you replace John Bonham, though? Isn't his son filling in for him? He plays drums in Foreigner, I think.
Mace MacLeod Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 ^^Oh, that's what I figured they'd do, but Bonzo was one of the all-time greats. Don't mix booze and downers, kids.
Black Knight of Keno Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 About time they got the Led out
Q Posted September 28, 2007 Posted September 28, 2007 Oh, it'll be good, alright. The Stones can still put on a good show, BTW. But for the record, I'd trade front row seats and an ounce of BC Hydro for nosebleed seats at another Black Sabbath reunion show. Their headlining gig at Ozzfest (1999? 2000?)One of the biggest regrets of my life is having missed out on that.
MrWally Posted September 29, 2007 Posted September 29, 2007 Am I the only one here who doesn't care that much about them reuniting? Sure it'd be awesome seeing them now but they're in their 60s and I would have much rather have seen them in their prime instead of now. I'm sure it'll be an awesome show but seeing several old guys trying to rock it could be kind of humorous. Sort of like seeing the Rolling Stones or Aerosmith today. Sure it's a good show and great music but the site of old guys rocking it is humorous to me. I dunno, I went to go see Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young last November and they were all in their 50s and 60s and in my opinion they sounded better than they did back in the day. Sure they may not be as energetic performers, but they sound the same if not better and still put energy and life into their music.
ZBomber Posted September 29, 2007 Posted September 29, 2007 I've seen so many old bands that are in their 50s/60s now.... Aerosmith (7 times), Stones (3 times), Queen + Paul Rodgers, Elton John, Billy Joel, Roger Waters, Stevie Nicks... All are still so amazing. Age means absolutely NOTHING. However, time really has affected Plant's voice, so its not that good anymore.... I'd still love to be there, but not gonna die cause I missed it.
MrWally Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 See, when it comes to Queen + Paul Rodgers, I'm not so sure. Because in my opinion Freddie Mercury made Queen what it was, and it's just not the same without him on stage. Awww... now I'm getting all sad again...
Taos Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 Am I the only one here who doesn't care that much about them reuniting?

Sure it's a good show and great music but the site of old guys rocking it is humorous to me. Nah you're not the only one, it's like the Eagles and their constant circuit of "reunion" tours. They are trying to cash in on what others have been doing....so it only makes sense. Though I personally could care less, Robert Plant can't even sing "stairway" anymore.
ZBomber Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 Queen, of course, will never be Queen without all four members, just as this wont really be Led Zeppelin. But the name is used for marketing.... you wouldnt get as much vibe if the tour was under the act "Brian May + Roger Taylor + Paul Rodgers" or "Jimmy Page + Robert Plant + John Paul Jones". But the Queen concert was beautiful, really. The whole show was pretty much a tribute to Freddie. You could feel him in the audience that night. He was there.
ZBomber Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 And for the record the Stones and Aerosmith have been touring constantly since they first started out as bands. And they put on some of the most amazing shows ever
Mace MacLeod Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 Gaaaaaaaaahh...Van Halen is playing here Dec 5. Full-page ad in the paper...Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen, David Lee Roth, Wolfgang Van Halen...who Van Halen? No Michael Anthony, Roth's voice is shot (think back to "Me Wise Magic"), and Eddie's son is on the tour. Man, getting old sucks...
Fish.Stapler Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 And for the record the Stones and Aerosmith have been touring constantly since they first started out as bands. And they put on some of the most amazing shows ever Aerosmith is atrocious live imo
Fish.Stapler Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 I immediately envisioned some pwned.nl occurng on his side of these internets
