Members of the Arctic Monkeys and Oasis are among an illustrious list of names who have made the guestlist for Led Zeppelin’s one-off reunion show later tonight (December 10th).

Sir Paul McCartney and his daughter, Stella, Lisa Marie and Priscilla Presley and Snow Patrol are also set to watch tonight’s spectacle.

As well as a traditional guestlist, which reportedly includes Kate Moss and Paris Hilton, Led Zeppelin have their own private ‘list’ which features Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl.

Speaking about being included on tonight’s guestlist, Arctic Monkeys’ drummer Matt Helders told the BBC that John Bonham, the band’s original drummer, was one of his biggest influences.

“I will be attending on Monday, I only found out yesterday (December 8th) that I could go though, I kind of forgot about it, obviously it's a big thing but yesterday we were told someone had got us tickets as a gift so I am very excited about that,” he said.

The band’s performance at the O2 Arena in London tonight attracted over 1 million ticket applications for just 18,000 tickets.

Demand was so high that one fan donated £83,000 to the BBC’s Children In Need in order to get a pair of tickets to the show.

Support at tonight’s concert will come from a number of Atlantic Records artists, including, Pete Townshend and Paolo Nutini.

  • She doesn’t ”deserve to go” she hasn’t ”earned” it but it isn’t a disgrace thats she is there. If you a real aggressive person is it a ”disgrace” if you went to a Live8 concert in 2005, where they were championing peace between people, among other things. No.
