pour revenir au sujet, Plant souffle le froid ... |
Et maintenant Robert Plant souffle le chaud
D'après un article publié sur le site du NME, Robert Plant a finalement confirmé que LED ZEPPELIN "allait bien se réunir un peu plus tard dans l'année". Un fan chasseur d'autographe qui a rencontré Robert Plant ce matin (ce 5 septembre) a expliqué que le chanteur lui a confirmé qu'il allait "assister cet après-midi à une réunion avec ses amis Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones. Cela sera rapide, il n'y aura pas beaucoup de travail car il n'y aura qu'un unique show (it's only going to be one-off gig)." | "There's more to me than you'll ever know..." |

et maintenant carrément la date de la re formation : le 26 novembre
According to MetalSucks, LED ZEPPELIN has a hold for a possible reunion show on November 26 at the O2 Arena in London. For those who aren't familiar with the way booking works, an artist's agent will generally place a "hold" on a venue when considering doing a show there; this prevents the venue from booking any other artists on that date, but the venue does not yet have to pay a deposit (typically 50 percent) to the artist because no formal offer has been made and the show is not officially confirmed. So while this latest bit of news certainly doesn't confirm that the show is happening, it absolutely lends credibility to the notion that this show is being seriously discussed. There is no word on whether any other venues in London are being held by LED ZEPPELIN on that date.
LED ZEPPELIN reformed for Live Aid in 1985 but its members were apparently so disgusted with their own performance — guitarist Jimmy Page famously blaming stand-in drummer Phil Collins — that they refused to allow it to be included in the concert DVD.
Page and singer Robert Plant have played together occasionally since then. | "_____ http://www.myspace.com/metal_den _____ http://metalden.free.fr/forum _____" |

The surviving members of LED ZEPPELIN have confirmed they will reform for a special show at London's 22,000-capacity O2 arena on Monday, November 26 as part of a tribute to Atlantic Records co-founder Ahmet Ertegun, who died last December.
Tickets cost £125 each (approximately $254) and will be allocated on a lottery basis through the AhmetTribute.com web site. Names will be chosen at random. There will be seating and standing tickets and fans will be able to express a preference at the web site.
Due to expected unprecedented demand, tickets will be limited to two per successful applicants per household.
Tickets will not be available from any other source. Please do not take adverts or publicise any company who claims to have tickets. They will not be given any.
Profits will benefit the Ahmet Ertegun Education Fund, which provides scholarships to universities in the United States, United Kingdom and Ertegun's homeland, Turkey.
The bill also includes PETE TOWNSHEND, BILL WYMAN & THE RHYTHM KINGS, FOREIGNER and PAOLO NUTINI.
Founding members Jimmy Page (guitar), Robert Plant (vocals) and John Paul Jones (bass) will be joined by Jason Bonham, son of the late John Bonham, on drums.
Robert Plant said in a statement: "During the ZEPPELIN years, Ahmet Ertegun was a major foundation of solidarity and accord. For us he WAS Atlantic Records and remained a close friend and conspirator — this performance stands alone as our tribute to the work and the life of our long-standing friend."
Mica Ertegun, Ahmet's wife and president of The Ahmet Ertegun Education Fund, commented: "Ahmet attributed his success to his excellent education, and his ability to recognize innovative artists that touched us all. It was his wish to endow music and liberal Arts scholarships that would enable gifted children to reach their highest creative potential. The Ahmet Ertegun Education Fund was founded with that goal. He would be very proud that LED ZEPPELIN have chosen to reunite and headline a benefit concert in his name featuring so many of his friends. I would like to thank all of the artists for their generous contribution to help make Ahmet's vision a reality."
Mick Jones of FOREIGNER stated: "Ahmet's combination of charm, humour, irreverence and above all his great passion for music made getting to know him one of the brightest highlights of my life."
Paolo Nutini: "Meeting Ahmet Ertegun in New York two years ago was a complete honor. He touched my life with his amazing personality and opened a few doors when I was starting my career. He even invited me to sing with Ben E King and Robert Plant at Montreux last year as part of a celebration of his musical life. He was a special guy, a real gentleman and it's such a shame he's gone but a massive tribute that all his music lives on — and will do forever. God bless Ahmet."
ZEPPELIN reformed for Live Aid in 1985 with Phil Collins on drums. Page and Plant have played together sporadically since then. A further — brief — reformation occurred at Atlantic Records' 40th anniversary bash in New York in 1988 with Jason Bonham on drums.
Three weeks prior to ZEP's O2 show, Jimmy Page will be honoured as the Living Legend at the Classic Rock Roll Of Honour, Classic Rock magazine’s third annual award show. This year the awards will take place on Monday, November 5 at London’s prestigious Landmark Hotel.
ZEPPELIN's O2 show is being organized by legendary promoter Harvey Goldsmith.
Commented Goldsmith: "Ahmet introduced me to America when I first started promoting. He became a friend and was my mentor. Our industry deeply misses such a giant of music. It is a fitting tribute that these great artists have all come together to perform in his memory. The proceeds of the evening will go to The Ahmet Ertegun Education Fund for student scholarships. One of these scholarships will be for a music student in the UK each year."
Bill Curbishley of Trinifold management added: "To have had Ahmet regard me as one of his close friends over the past 40 years was indeed a rare privilege. To be involved in setting up this event, plus a music trust in his name and in his spirit is also a great honour and privilege for me."

on pouvait s'en douter, la demande est très forte, il faut passer par un site pour s'inscrire, et l'affluence record a dépassé les limite et mis ce dernier HS ! :
Scott Colothan of Gigwise.com reports that fans vying to get their hands on tickets for LED ZEPPELIN's reunion show at the O2 arena in London are finding it impossible to get through.
As previously reported, to be in with a chance of going to the hottest gig of the year on November 26, you have to enter a ballot on AhmetTribute.com.
Unfortunately — and as expected — the site has crashed due to the unprecedented levels of demand. The O2 arena website has also crashed thanks to its high traffic flow.
Those fortunate enough to get through and register for the ballot, will be charged £125 per ticket if they are lucky enough to be selected. The one-off date is a tribute to to the co-founder of Atlantic Records, Ahmet Ertegun and will feature guest appearances from Pete Townshend and Bill Wyman. | "_____ http://www.myspace.com/metal_den _____ http://metalden.free.fr/forum _____" |

et maintenant rolling Stones parie que le concert ne sera pas unique mais suivi d'une tournée, pour l'instant pure hypothèse, affaire à suivre ... :
RollingStone.com reports: LED ZEPPELIN will reform for a one-off show at the O2 Arena, London on November 26. "They're going to play all the great songs that everybody wants to hear," said promoter Harvey Goldsmith, who brokered what must surely be the Holy Grail of rock reunions. "They are the last great rock gods that remain to be seen," Goldsmith added. "I have a feeling that this is going to be the largest demand for one show in history."
Speculation that other ZEPPELIN shows and possibly even a full reunion tour will follow is running high. "You have to take it one step at a time," Harvey said. "Obviously there is a sense of frustration for all the fans around the world who can't get tickets. I hope they do something else. But I hope they do it because they're really enjoying it and because this show is fantastic." | "_____ http://www.myspace.com/metal_den _____ http://metalden.free.fr/forum _____" |
