Led Zeppelin: 'We Could Do The Reunion Show Again'

For a good reason...

Led Zeppelin frontman Robert Plant has said that the group could perform together again if it is for the right circumstances.

Fans have been calling for the band to reunite for a full reunion tour ever since their one-off show at the O2 Arena in London last December.

Asked if their show, which was held in tribute of Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun, had ended hopes of a full tour, Plant said: “No Not At All.

“I really enjoyed it. And hopefully, One day, we could do it again for another really, really good reason.”

Speaking to Uncut, bassist John Paul Jones admitted that when the band left the stage last December “it felt like the first night of a tour”.

“You think, 'Oh, I could do that a bit better, or change something in that song.' And we didn't get a chance to do any more,” he said.

Chances of an immediate Led Zeppelin reunion tour have been affected by Robert Plant’s touring commitments with singer Alison Kraus which run until September.

  • In many ways I would like to see them because they’re much older. Yes, on a primal level, we all enjoy athletic musicianship and Plant shrieking into the microphone. However there can be fundamental immaturity in preformances which consist soely of this. Music is a preformance based medium. If you want to hear things preformed exactly as they were 30 years ago, then listen to a recording made 30 years ago. What interests me is the different ideations that would be produced by wiser preform
