Is that the Bonnaroo festival? Odd band/pair to have playing any festival.

Really disappointed I didnt apply for tickets, so stupid. Seemed really good though, but I cant see a tour coming from it. Hopefully I shall be proved wrong.

That's the one yeah, rumours had been shipped out last week that Zeppelin were confirmed for it, and that was part of the World Tour fuel injection, but he seems to be really happy with the Krauss collaboration so why not tour it.......I guess it's a festival in the right part of the world for that type of music....

Plant announces tour with Krauss

Robert Plant is to tour with country star Alison Krauss, dampening hopes of an immediate announcement that he and Led Zeppelin will tour themselves.
The pair, who released the album Raising Sand in October, will perform across Europe next May and are expected to go on to the US in the summer.

Tickets for their UK shows, beginning in Birmingham, have gone on sale.

Led Zeppelin played their first gig in 19 years in London on Monday, sparking rumours of a full-blown reunion tour.

While guitarist Jimmy Page has indicated his willingness to reform for such a project, singer Plant has always been reluctant to commit.

Fans on Led Zeppelin's official website expressed their disappointment at the news.

"Oh dear - no Led Zep tour in 2008," wrote one, while others likened Krauss to a Yoko Ono-style figure for keeping the band apart.

Raising Sand entered the US Billboard chart at number two and has received critical acclaim.

The European leg of their tour will conclude in London at Wembley Arena on 22 May.

MonstersAndCritics.com reports that LED ZEPPELIN will headline next year's Glastonbury Festival.

The legendary rock group — who played a sensational comeback concert at London's O2 arena earlier this month — will take to the stage for the world-famous musical extravaganza, in Somerset, England, before embarking on an 18-month world tour.

A source close to the band — Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and drummer Jason Bonham, who has replaced his late father John Bonham — said: "It will kick off at next year's Glastonbury after Robert has finished touring with American country star Alison Krauss."
