Kennedy Center honorees show to be aired on CBS, Dec. 26th…

Leave a comment

President Obama will host the Kennedy Center honors show at the White House, which happened today, but will be aired on TV, Dec. 26th. Be sure to mark your calendars for that one. See the full article, here.

One thing that got me scratching my head, is what Robert said here,

Plant told The Associated Press he plans to continue traveling the world and wants to make new music along the way.

“If anybody wants to write some new songs, I’m game to write songs,” he said.

Did Robert just hint that he may write new songs with Led Zep?

Maybe he wasn’t referring to that, but it certainly seems like it. I’m sure that got other fans scratching their heads too. They may not go on a full tour, but that’s still not stopping them for making a new record. We’ll wait to see what they say on Letterman tomorrow night.

Jason reveals the real reason why Robert doesn’t want to rejoin, Led Zeppelin…

27 Comments

In a radio interview, Jason Bonham, the man himself explains the real reason Robert Plant, doesn’t want any part of the Led Zeppelin reunion, even though the other guys were willing. It wasn’t because Robert was busy with other projects. It is because Robert is doing this for John’s, honor. The reason Led Zeppelin broke up in the past, ’cause they felt they couldn’t go on without, John. Robert could probably go on a tour with Zeppelin if he wanted to easily, but Robert just doesn’t feel comfortable without John being around. Jason admits in this interview, that he wasn’t supposed to reveal this. He’d probably get in trouble for it.

Read this article and see the video interview with Jason himself, here.

If you think about it, there would no Led Zeppelin without John Bonham, ’cause he is Led Zeppelin. So maybe Robert is doing the right thing. Robert seems to be the only one in the band, who is still grieving for John.

They probably won’t perform on Letterman tomorrow night, but the interview will still be good. If they do end up performing after all, that would be cool too!

Led Zeppelin to appear on David Letterman this Monday night… but will they talk or just perform??? Or both…

1 Comment

The reason Led Zeppelin is appearing on Letterman this Monday night, is not only to help plug in the “Celebration Day” BluRay/DVD/CD release, it is also because Letterman is being honored at the Kennedy Center today too, along with Zeppelin.

We ALL know Letterman is going to ask them about an upcoming tour, and maybe Led Zeppelin will finally squash the tour speculation. Still though, the band could confirm a tour by saying, “Yes, we’re doing it”, out of the blue, just to put out an unexpected surprise. They could be keeping that confirmed tour top secret from us, all along, but I doubt it, though. So don’t get your hopes up. They’re probably gonna deny a tour, again for the 100th time. They’re probably just gonna talk about the Cebebration Day release, the Kennedy Center honors, and the career of Led Zeppelin.

Of course, there’s a possibility, they might perform on television too, so keep our fingers crossed on that.

Cool Photo: Zeppelin blimp flies over the White House today…

8 Comments

Led Zeppelin posted this photo today, of the Celebration Day blimp flying over the White House. I believe it was the same blimp that was flying over the Dallas Cowboys, stadium. The Zeppelin blimp flying over the White House, is not photoshopped.

I almost forgot that Led Zeppelin is being honored at the Kennedy Center tomorrow, that’s why the Zeppelin blimp flew over the White House today. I hear that the band, Led Zeppelin will meet with President Obama himself, I believe?

Anyway, as much as I don’t like President Obama, I’ll give him respect for this one time. Even if Led Zeppelin is from the U.K., the band created American history, so this honor is very deserving for Led Zeppelin. I wonder if Led Zeppelin, will perform a few songs tomorrow in D.C.? Wouldn’t surprise me if they will.

Cool Video: Do you have DirectTV? You may be the first to see Led Zeppelin’s “Celebration Day” on TV…

3 Comments

Led Zeppelin is teasing something again, by posting a photo and a video of a zeppelin flying over Dallas, with the words, Direct TV, over a screen showing clips of the, “Celebration Day”, movie. This is a hint that “Celebration Day”, could soon be aired on DirectTV satellite.

This is a cool way of marketing.

Led Zeppelin, has always been known to come up with crazy ways of marketing themselves. I’m pretty sure Jimmy Page himself, comes up with the wild promotion ideas.

On a side note, I know “Celebration Day” have been out on Blu Ray/CD. The Holidays are upon us.

Report: Jimmy Page speaks on the Led Zeppelin full reunion tour that never happened…

7 Comments

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.

Report: Possible Led Zeppelin/Foo Fighters collaboration on the way???

1 Comment

There may never be a Led Zeppelin reunion, but that’s not stopping Jimmy Page for doing other things in his own career. Speaking to BBC6 radio, Jimmy Page announced that he is planning on doing a new album and full tour of his own, sometime next year in 2013. Like the article says, Jimmy hasn’t been in the studio in a long time for new original music.

Since the Foo Fighters, announced hiatus, could Jimmy Page be working on a possible album with, Dave Grohl? Jimmy and Dave have been friends for years. They already played together once at the Foo Fighters concert at Wembley Stadium in 2008, so anything is possible. I can see Jimmy and Dave working together.

More on the story, here.

Jimmy Page, finally shoots down Led Zeppelin tour reunion rumors…

Leave a comment

Speaking to Rolling Stone, Jimmy Page was quick to shoot down rumors of a possible upcoming Led Zeppelin tour. He claims that if there were any more concerts to be done, they would already be talking about them.

Read, what he has to say, here.

Ah well, I guess I’ll give it up and get over it. I’ll still support them though, no matter the decisions they make. Hopefully Jimmy Page will come out with a new project of his own, whether it will be a new solo album or if he plays with a different band. I just want Jimmy Page back out there, doing something new.

Anyway, people will always find other ways to bring up new rumors about Led Zeppelin, even if they aren’t touring. Let the new album rumors begin soon, that possible unreleased studio album they did that Dave Grohl was talking about, don’t be surprised if rumors about that could blow up soon.

The guys must be getting frustrated though. They want people to appreciate their 2007 concert which is why they released it for us all, yet, people keep harassing them about a tour. This should hopefully shut everyone up about it now.
