Led Zeppelin Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

Led Zeppelin does not have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I want to change that.

After attending the O2 Led Zeppelin concert in London last year, I returned home more invigorated than I had been in quite some time about the group and their music. By pure chance, one day I was reading a news article about the latest inductees into the Hollywood Walk of Fame and searched to see if Led Zeppelin was there, or if anyone was working toward that goal. To my utter surprise, and after contacting the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, I found that nothing was in the works.

I immediately began thinking, what a great way for the fans to honor Zeppelin in some small way. After more research, I found that a number of these Hollywood star nomination campaigns were started by the fans themselves. I then quietly put up a simple website outlining the goal, with an online petition for people to sign and show their support . Then I mailed letters to each member of the band and their management (written approval from the group is required to proceed with the nomination process), and followed that up with a second letter. I contacted friends I had met at the O2, and contacted several Led Zeppelin online forums. The response has been extremely positive.

Led Zeppelin has received many honors over the years, both as a group and individually. My goal is to honor them with a star in a completely fan-driven campaign.

If interested, please contact me for more information.

lol, a "scareway to hollywood heaven", but yea, i thought they had some reward or something. i just wiki'd the list of stars.. how can the Bee Gees get on but not zep? but more importantly, where the s--- is Eric Clapton?? as far as musicians go on that list it's pretty messed up.

This side of the beatles...fuck you...beatles arent a blimp on the radar

[LedZeppelinStar]

I COMPLETELY agree with you. It kind of pissed me off with that little dig. But, I didn't know he was going to say that until the piece was broadcast.

[LIGHTMAN004]

[LedZeppelinStar]

a lot of people/group who should have a star, don't. van Halen didn't get into the rock and roll of fame until last year! And when they did, the went in alongside Jay-Z. Jay-z! How is he rap?
