Led Zeppelin Rumor

I feel like I'm having my inner being toyed with with all this Led Zep playing anywhere within 800 miles of me thing. Yes I was born over a year after Bonham's death, did Zep mean more to me musically than any other band ever? Yes to that as well.

Throughout high school (the late 90's) my friends and I would sometimes debate which body part we'd gladly part with to be at a Led Zep reunion show. Generally I only volunteered to cut off a few fingers.

Per NME Zep will do a reunion show around Nov in UK and Plant is quoted as saying it'll be "a one-off" so no other show

I'm not so into Led Zep, but am hooked on a silly mashup called ABC Breaker by DJ Moule that's the Jackson5 ABC vocal over the Heartbreaker riff. A lot more fun than the Dread Zeppelin Heartbreaker

Ah, Mashups. What ever happened to them? Did they ever release another album?

I know you have no way of knowing but that's so inappropriate under the circumstances.

i heard led zep is playing 930 on 9/11 + it will not be announced until 9/11 3pm.

Are you sure it's on 9/11? I heard they had a few secret shows on tap but the one I've been talking about is the only one I know about. If that makes any sense.

I actually emailed Get the Led Out to see if they had a secret show coming up on 9/11 in PA and they said no. :-)

I realize that it was a very adolescent line of thinking we were following at the time. But under what circumstances is that so terribly inappropriate? I've wracked my brain a bit and don't remember any member of Zep losing a finger or arm I thought that was Tommy Iommi and Rick Allen.

The guy who told me about it lost a leg which is part of the reason why they're bringing him up on stage.

Question - Is this show that they might show up to sold out yet? You would think this guy would be telling other people besides you and I'm sure the band would have invited other people on stage. And those people would have told other people.

I am not trying to discredit you, just trying to see if this is anymore then a rumor. Thx!

Hmm, true. My sincere apologies.

No way.

Can you imagine the rush if Zep was announced at the 930 Club 4 hours before doors? There would be such an incredible rush. AND the only way to get tickets is to be in line.

Fires.

Anybody read A Thousand Splendid Suns? I love it when Tariq beats the bully up with his fake leg.

It's in PA at a regular concert venue. When I say where you guys are going to say there's no way in hell.

Please stop toying with my emotions. Is it Hershey Park?

This is Zeppelin. Issues like this are very serious.

So obvious…

It's hard for me to believe it too. Good tickets are available but again it's still a secret.

I don't know how many people kept in touch with the band (that's playing w/ LZ) or how many others he told. It only came up in conversation when I asked him about another concert.

You also have to figure that a lot of the patients can't be that far away from the hospital for so long, many don't have their cars here, and to be honest some can't handle being in big crowds with loud noise, strobe lights and pyro so soon.

That was a roundabout way of me saying I know nothing else.

One night we were talking to the guys and asked if they want us to bring in boardgames. One guy said twister because he can just take his legs off and put them on the right color dots. :)

I think it would be a bit tough for them to do a secret show tonight and then by 10 am EST be at a press conference in London.

It's perfect timing. They're following up their surprise show with a press conference.

Yes I am going tonight. Do I expect to be writing "I told you so" tomorrow morning? No. But one can hope.

this thread sucks, and so does anyone who goes to a Bon Jovi concert and expects to see Led Zeppelin.

it'd be like going to a Guns N Roses concert and expecting to see….. Guns N Roses!!!!

Bon Jovi would be a little less painful than the band I'm seeing tonight.
