  • Oh for God\'s sake Percy GET OVER IT. Think about the fans who are drooling with anticipation at the thought of this tour. Also, not to be rude but none of us are getting any younger .... how about getting on the stage while you can still bring it!

  • There probably wont ever be another Led Zeppelin concert and the fans will just have to come to that realization. Fact is, Robert has proven to be the real workhorse of the band. Since the passing of John Bonham, Robert has put out 10 solo records (writing more than 70 songs) and multiple collaboration albums. (Excluding the Page/Plant stuff) Compare that to Jimmys 6. The volume of material is incomparable. What can be said about the other 3 remaining musicians – lazy.

  • At 60, Robert Plant has finally found a musical setting that both challenges and gratifies him professionally. Being dissed by Page just gives him one more reason not to bother with a Zep reunion tour he never really wanted to do in the first place. In the words of a song he does with the superb Alison Krauss and the incredible Raising Sand Traveling Revue band, Robert has Done Moved On, and imo it is way past time for the legions of diehard dinosaur Zep fans to do the same.

  • Well, i\'m only 16 and i would LOVE to have the opportunity to see led zeppelin in concert even if it\'s not as good as their concert in the 70\'s. i don\'t think plant realizes that many fans would pay a fortune to see them tour. i hope plant would stop acting so immature and just put the stupid issue aside and tour. yeah, it was wrong for jimmy page to take all the credit for himself but come on, just grow up robert.

  • Well said Andalou and Bruce. I\'d take a stab and say Robert has maybe five to ten years left of actively making music and touring. I\'d much rather see him make another Mighty Rearranger or Raising Sand than sing Black Dog day in and day out. Now if only Jimmy and John Paul would follow Robert\'s model and try doing something new and inventive for a change.
