There’s been a lot of speculation on why a Led Zeppelin full reunion tour never happened after their 2007 reunion gig at the 02. A lot of people blamed it on Robert’s aging. Some even went as far as saying the band didn’t want to embarrass themselves and they could destroy their legacy if they went on. None of that is true. Jimmy Page speaks to Rollingstone explaining the whole thing. Why the band never toured. The band wanted to, and I’m sure Robert was willing at the time, it’s just that he was busy with other projects. Led Zeppelin was going to go on with a different singer, but that never happened either.
Read the full story, here.
See? The band were just like us. Even they wanted the tour to happen like the rest of us but wasn’t sure.
Still though, I’m sure Jimmy Page will come out with a project of his own. I see Jimmy Page, planning a comeback with his own career in 2013. Maybe new solo album or a project with a different band? Hope, Jimmy is planning a comeback soon. I’m sure he is planning something.

Robert wasn’t willing – that’s Jimmy’s diplomatic way of saying, “Robert didn’t want to.”
Disagree. I’m sure Robert was gonna do it ’cause if he didn’t have the Alison Krauss project, I’m sure he would have jumped right on. Also, Robert wouldn’t talk to Jimmy Page about it, if he wasn’t interested. It’s just that Robert had too many projects going on. Not just with Alison Krauss, other bands like, the Shapeshifters for example. I’m pretty sure Robert considered it.

Considered it at first, I mean.

“Ultimately, Robert Plant had no interest in carrying on. ‘He was busy,’ says Page. ‘He was doing his Alison Krauss project. I wasn’t fully aware it was going to be launched at the same time. So what do you do in a situation like that?'”
Jimmy’s saying that basically, Robert wasn’t really talking with him, because he was taken off guard when he found put Plant had already planned a tout with Alison Krauss.

I can comprehend that better than you can.
I’m 100% positive Jimmy and Robert already talked with each other behind the scenes. Of course, they did. They’ve known each other for years and they are friends. They talk to each other all the time. I’m sure. Don’t you think Jimmy already asked him and Robert just said, “No, I’m busy with Alison Krauss”?
I’m sure Robert wanted to tour with Led Zep but he couldn’t with the other projects.

On top of that, Jimmy didn’t say this, “Ultimately, Robert Plant had no interest in carrying on.” The article did. Jimmy just said, “Robert was busy”, that still doesn’t mean Robert had no interest. Stupid journalists.

You guys can go fuck yourselves. I’m tired of a certain few of you just coming here to argue and argue. Piss off.
