Apparently they're touring next year: http://www.nme.com/news/led-zeppelin/32664

Astbury said: "We'll be back next year, because we're opening for a band you may have heard of. The name starts with an 'L' and has a 'Z' in it."

Although he could be talking about Limp Bizkit or Lenny Kravitz.

Lads here's an inside tip for you. I was talking to a guy a couple of months ago about music & he was telling me he ran the largest merchandising company in the country & he was going to London the following day to sign a contract to produce Led Zepplin shirts etc for their gig here next year...

I asked him where they're playing & he said Croke Park, so how do I know it's for sure I asked, well, he said, we're also doing Celine Dion & westlife there too. They haven't been announced yet so when they are you'll know it's true says he... The gig is supposed to be sep/oct & will be announced in Jan/feb.

You heard it here first

Meh, I love Led Zep, but I also love cheese and am always careful to comsume it by its 'sell-by' date.

Their London show is being hyped out of all proportions to the extent that it's bound to disappoint.

I saw them at the "Atlantic at 40" bash in 1988 and Jimmy Page could not play, full stop. I've got a rare video of this that LZ have never allowed to be released (same with their disastrous Live Aid appearance).

If I wanna see a bunch of OAPS making out like it's the early 70's then I will pop down my local retirement home at drug-dispensing time.

Led Zep were of their time and are best remembered that way.

but then you have the likes of myself who've been unlucky to born in the god-awful 80s and so never had the chance to see them before... i wouldn't care if they were cack it'd just be a thrill to see 'em.

also i'd be very surprised if they were as bad as at Live Aid. by the sounds of it they are actually practising this time. secondly i think his ego wont let him either...

and besides no one in their right mind would ever expect them to be as good as they were nearly 30 years on...

From this weeks Holy Moly:

Congratulations to Ian Astbury, the Scream-faced singer of The Cult, who announced to the world live on stage that his band would be supporting Led Zeppelin on their world tour next year.
Yes, that's the world tour that is supposed to be a massive secret until they play their upcoming one-off gig. Having the news broken has made even the Saintly Robert Plant less than pleased, so maybe The Cult will be able to have a nice rest next year after.

10 more days to go:)

Thats what I was thinking, although I must admit, Ive never been a big fan of LZ and dont own any of their records. Its certainly going to be a special event for anyone though even if your not a fan of their music you can apprichate the significance.
