Classic Rock Magazine reports that Robert Plant has mentioned that he is available in 2014 for a Led Zeppelin reunion. http://www.classicrockmagazine.com/news/led-zeppelin-robert-plant-in-2014-reunion-tease/ They are definitely on my bucket list of bands that I would like to see live. I can only suspect that ticket prices and demand would be through the roof for this tour if it happened.

If it does happen (which I very much doubt) I expect there'll be 20 million applications for a few thousand tickets like there was at the O2.

I've been a Zep fan my whole life, but I have no intention of going through the trouble and expense to get a concert ticket to see them, if in fact they tour.  I haven't seen/heard their 2007 reunion show yet (that reminds me I need to get it), but the response seems to be very positive.  So maybe the band still has another tour in them.  More power to them if they do, they've got a fantastic catalog of music.

If they do a show in the Detroit area I will be there.  Most likely in the nosebleed seats, but I will be there.  I won't be travelling to New York or Los Angeles or London to see them however.

I've been disappointed so many times over the year's when rumours lead to nothing. I'm not holding my breath but I'll be there if it happens.

I just finished reading a Zeppelin biography where Plant said he would never consider reuniting the band and that fans who expect such a thing don't get that the original band was a point in time that can't be repeated.  He also said he'd moved on and was enjoying what he's doing now.  Wonder why the change of heart?

Not much news, but Jason Bonham posted a response on his Facebook page.
 
Drummer Bonham says on his Facebook page: "I just watched Robert's interview, where he says he's free in 2014. Not sure how to read it – what do you think?"
