[yoshicoto888]

oh man if led zepplin goes on tour again i will crap my pants

[krustyolehippie]

500 hundred years from now,zepplin and stairway to heaven will still be the standard which all other rock bands and songs will be judged and compared to,while most other bands won't even be a vague memory.

[krustyolehippie]

history lesson:either zep or hendrix's (some dispute)music was the 1st to be described as Heavy Metal,followed by cream,DP,sabbath and others.the term has evolved,but don't forget the roots of Metal.these guys played it before judas priest and others were in pampers.

[DAVEJOKA]

and what about the pink floyd

[Ukpahupka]

i cant say anymore, the music say all, so great great...

[Shadowformer]

sabbath, zeppelin, purple... were pioners in hard rock... priest were the first real heavy metal band.

[jaxosho]

a great report, wow, Tell me more

[blackaurora44]

Ha! ...ILMFAO at that one!

[ManniVel]

22nd of november? it was the 26th then the 10th...

[EdZep123]

Annoys me when people say "Led Zeppelin" and "heavy metal" in the same sentence. LZ are not heavy metal. They're way better than any heavy metal band.

[MRUfootball16]

dous the word.."oppinion" mean nothing to you? or is what you say a fact always?

[EdZep123]

"opinion" does, yes. If people want to listen to heavy metal, that's fine but when Page himself says it's a "b*stard term" to use to describe them, that's good enough for me.

[HDXPC]

you know...i know exactly what you mean, led zeppelin transcends so much more then one genre.

[ozzythomasbell]

Yeah true that....their music cannot be classefied as heavy metal..robert plant himself is quoted to have said that the heavy metal label cant be attatched to Led Zeppelin as 1/3 of their music was acoustic

[RayZR]

That's true. It does annoy me that a lot of people refer to Led Zeppelin as a heavy metal band when a good half of their studio releases were played on the acoustic.

[Empire1018]

BOYCOTT WARNER MUSIC GROUP PRODUCTS!!!

there greedy ways prevent us from watching Led Zeppelin live!!

[osvyabri]

the best band EVER and the best comeback long live the king

[blackaurora44]

Well said!

[pier23ca]

Nostalgia. Borinnnng. 40 year old rock music played by has-beens.

Wow. Such media wonders. Isn't mediated life grand?

[Srhandel]

What an annoying breaking news crawl on the bottom of the screen, they should pick a better colour, that bright yellow is horrible.

[jreddihough]

there not in it for the money. they have sold millions and aren't short of dosh. they just wanna rock out, wouldnt you? plus 02arena holds 18000.if they were in for the money they would do wembley and get in 80000 or so.

[paquillo67]

Very good explanation. There are ever people that has not the necesary sense to see the real side of the world's events.

[kondurperu3]

I hope rainbow will come back some day

[pier23ca]

This upcoming concert should go over like a lead balloon -- just like Live Aid, Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary, the Black Crows gig and others.

Talk about hype fueling a fraud career.

[djkorn1]

Pier,

You are really negative.

Let the guys have fun and play a gig or two.

Let the fans have fun and enjoy it.

It is just Rock N Roll.

[orrigarmie]

you make me sick so they mite not play as well as they did in the seventies(im only seventeen and nevver got to see em) but a fraud career? your talkin out of your arse mate they built what theyve got from nothin bsides were you at all these gigs? and the gigs at the peak of thier so called "fraud" career

you make me sick

[pier23ca]

Did you get yourself a vomit bag? Don't make a mess on your mum's floor.

[ajt420]

"Talk about hype fueling a fraud career." How have they had a fraud career. They are known as one of the best bands of all time and you say "fraud career." Come on, thats just plain stupid.

And how can you hate on any band for reuniting?

[pier23ca]

Is their another kind of stupid besides plain? Can we get that stupid in a plaid?

"Hate on"? Is that ghettoite-speak urbanite-speak?

Google thieving magpie jimmy page yardbirds

[ajt420]

Plaid stupid. Wow, you're a clever one aren't ya. And yes, "Hate on" can be considered slang. Get with the times grandpa.

[ustanok]

BLASPHEMY!!!

[RockNRoller12]

WTF

Jimmy Page looks like a looser.

Oh well, Led Zeppelin rules!

[billyfaustisgod]

i wish you were dead

[lokismig]

Lo unico comparable es el momento elegido (2007) por lo demas, unos son el mejor grupo de la historia (Led Zeppelin) y el otro el peor (Spice Girls)

[paquillo67]

¿Cómo pueden estos catetos poner al mismo nivel la reunion de Police y las Spice Girls? Por Diossssssssssss!!!!!!!!! ¡¡¡¡¡Encima son ingleses!!!!! Alguien debería colgar del Big Ben al realizador de este noticiario!!!

[GoO6Y]

It's Wrong To compare Shit hole Reunions Like The Police and Those Blond Chicks To The Great Reunion Of Led Zeppelin.

[ElectrickFingers]

No it isn't. They are in it for the money just like all the others. Rubbish. If they were doing it for the fans they would do more dates and charge less for tickets. Instead they get in there quick and make a fast buck and over-charge people ludicrous prices for tickets. Meanwhile, everyone pisses in their pants in excitement. Sad.

[ilovetooboogie]

Were they not playing a gig IN MEMORY of someone who was close to the band? I'm sure they've had bigger offers to reform ...

[rikimarufly]

WOW is that jimmy page?? @-)

[awolwakefield]

How can they compare Zep's comeback to the Spice Girls & The Police reformation "AAAGH"

[paquillo67]

I'm agree with you, AGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

[guitarlicker]

jimmy looks so funny ha ah but his music is still rocking

[alldaydags]

hahahaha i'm going to see this lololololol

[EZMCProduction]

sure

[ZoSoRecords]

I will to... in HD TV :)

[mr4sam]

35 years over do i really do hope they make it here in the u.s.a im a led zep fan i love you guys. keep rockin :)

[LedZoso4]

Dancing days or rock and roll would be the perfect opener

[aftguitar94]

jason bonham said that they will probably open with good times bad times...damn i wish i could go

[dinglefeet]

i guess i'm a lucky on then. got tickets oh yeah

[Champane97]

Make sure you film it and show us here!! Considering how expensive tickets are, I say those (Like your good self!) in attendance have a right to document the show to have as your own memento of possible the last every performance of Led Zeppelin!!

[Champane97]

After all, if I got a ticket, booked the flight to London, book the hotel and bought the merchandise, than NO security goon will tell me I can't do it! (Even if under the request of the band!!) We the fans outnumber these security buffoons and have invested a lot of money to see our favourite bands.

[cfreckna]

no fair!

[EZMCProduction]

then post a video of your tickets! please I want to see them

[cfreckna]

john bonham is dead, but I agree. Dancing Days would be a good opener, and so would Immigrant Song or Whole Lotta Love.

[guitarhero21323]

Song remains the same

[ozonebabyzz]

if they leave us yanks out it will be a tragedy since we are the ones that made them they started their tours here in the states, come on guys give us a whole lotta love!!!!

ozonebaby---peace of zeppelin

[zeppage4]

Please give us Americans some attention, fight the hordes...sing and cry just do a concert here.

[ilra7ma]

LED ZEPPELIN keep going and still rocking.

[rockme987]

it still sends chills down my spine when i hear the words "Led Zeppelin reunion" praying for a world tour!!

[AscendentInLeo]

One Off?

[LedZeppelin005]

LED ZEPPELIN....YEEEAAAHHHHH!

[12STRING6]

PLEASE BOOK SHOWS IN AMERICA

[trebzeppelin]

yeah it's not a once off gig!In 2008 they are playing in Belfast in the Ulster hall,the place they played their first stairway to heaven!So fuck the 02 arena There's no chance of getting tickets.Oh and there were rumours that they are playing in Jacksonville in America...for those americans out there..

[BlackFlamed]

HELLS YEA!!!

[toxicbograt]

Oh and as for an opening song, a good bet would be Bring it on Home, anyone taking bets?

[trickmast]

Immigrant song :P

[magneteye]

the opener will be Rock 'n Roll

[toxicbograt]

Think it may be a good idea for them to play in their own country in front of their own countrymen?????? It could be the start of a reunion tour so lets keep our fingers crossed they get the bug for it. that way we may actually get to see them instead of 20, 000 tickets been divied up between 30 million hopefuls, oh unless your like our mate who knows god and has got himself some imaginery tickets to play with.

[kevzeppelin07]

pisses me off they are all the way in london..they need to come to America

[snoochieboochies420]

i got front row fuckin' tickets!

[bigmak93]

bullshit

[snoochieboochies420]

how do i say this nicley? fuck you!i do tech work for bands, and one of my clients was crazy town. their tour managers richard cole(wod did zeppelin). i was on the road with him for a long time and became good friends with him.he knows i fucking worship zeppelin and is getting me in the frot as well as backstage. so again,fuck you! if i need some little prick to call me a liar, i will ask you. but,untill then sit the fuck down!

[meggy1327]

who the fuck cares about the spice girls!

[DylanEVH]

I really hope they can keep going on after that show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and posibly world tour!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd really apreciate it

[rodolfo2107]

well i hope phill collins dont play the drums, cuz in 84 he suck big time, its more better that jason bonham play the drums 4 this reunion, cuz if some else plays the drums its not gonna sound nice or hear good

[Zeppelin2008]

They'll open with Achilles.

[AscendentInLeo]

They should start with the song remains the same and they MUST do Achilles Last Stand and kashmir, and In The Evening, and Trampled underfoot and they MUST film this.

[UC7media]

They also must do In The Light and Carouselambra to make it be perfect.

[rodd7]

My brother and I are arguing on which song should be the opener. He says the immigrant song I say the obvious rock and roll. What do you think?

[mikeen912]

I doubt they'll even play Immigrant Song.

[rrp1984]

There is a god

[zeppelinforlife]

cant you win the tickets somehow from like a ballod?

[LeurckFam]

Is everyone crazy? It's Bonham's son Jason who is playing the drums in his dad's place. I'm pretty sure, his dad wuld be OK with this.

Just saw him paying for Foreigner last weekend, he was very good. Wish I had the $1,000.00 per (cheapest) ticket plus airfare to go. Will be the concert of a lifetime friends!

[wjv4me]

I think they're $2500/Euro. (44% higher vs. our $1.00)

Yes, it'll be the concert of the best!

[markhoppusrules]

my ears hurt from listening to this crap

[GlennTipton]

You doon't know anythin' 'bout music!

You like Blink 182`?

THIS IS MUSIC! GET OVER IT! BITCH

[raypage]

sucker, you don't know about real music, don't put your fuckin opinion here

[bonham2112]

What a f*****g insult to the memory of the man who gave them their sound.

I am totally shocked at the cheap shot attempt to re-kindle former glories, especially with the backing bonhams of kin!!!!!!!..................th­ey now go down in history(in mind) as a complete sham!!.......Just like THE WHO reforming after moon died!!!!...........what f******g a greedy piss take!!...shame on them all.

Mark my words it will be the biggest anti-climax in rock history!!!

[adaryanani]

well said... but i'd kill to go, sorry dude!

[xlacious]

Dude, Who'll deny that Bonham was part of Zep's sound? (Not to mention JP's and the band's creativity in recording the band AND JB's drums!) But come on, why get all fundamentalist about it? If the drummer's good and faithful, it'll be a good show. Bless your loyalty to JB, but let Zep live for God's sake. Let Who live for that matter...

[yunaxxx]

IM going there

[rckrchck]

Hottest ticket on the planet! They already extended the deadline to get your name in the lottery to wed. instead of monday, because of high volume. Luck to everyone :)

[Guitarscreech06]

OH MY FUCKING GOD, I never thought it actually would happen, I'm almost crying of joy here - but then the ocncert is in england so I can't see them.

EVERYONE with camera phones, RECORD RECORD RECORD!

IF (I doubt it) they make a reunion tour my life is complete at the age of 16 lol

[rockonrusty07]

led rocks

[stereoevil]

I only hope this will be the performance they wanted to say farewell with. I never thought this day would come and though only a small chance of getting tickets I only dream of seeing them together. LED ZEPPELIN'S Last Stand...

[zeprls]

The Greatest Rock Band EVER!! PERIOD. I don't trust anyone who doesn't like Zeppelin the saying goes and it couldn't be more prudent. This will be a concert of Biblical Proportions. The Police and Van Wolfen don't even come close.

[JoshZoso]

I so applied.

[chrisstatas]

How cool is this!! 1st the Police, then Van Halen and now the ultimate LED ZEPPELIN!! It goes to show the classic's never die, unlike today's artist or should we call them artist? ZEP ROCKS!! Power to classic rock!!

[IgglyBiggly]

I was at Knebworth in 79 - I will be at The O2 if I can just get a ticket. Only the Beatles and Elvis could have sold more tickets.

[carbiduis]

zep was breaking all kinds of records for ticket sales, after the beatles.

[syea99]

fuck i thaught seeing rush in concert was awesome, well its awesome but LED ZEPPELIN is THE best band to ever have walked the face of this earth.

[chosen91]

i will be there,inside or outside.

[zepsterboy]

20 million people have applied for tickets and have crashed 2 x ISP's This is the biggest comback ever!!!

ZEP 4 EVER

[Reggie1971]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­a!

There is a lottery for tickets though. I'm not about buying a scalped one or not. I might have to take out a home equity loan.

[trunx27]

remember how much zep sucked when they last played together? still, i'd love to see them :D

[chrisstatas]

I'd take a Led Zeppelin shit gig in an instance, than watching some of today's so called rock bands!! Zep would play for over 3 hours, can you imagine today's bands trying that? They would quit after 3 shows, and that's pushing it!!

[torturedrob]

this is so fucking awesome!!!
