Plant Up For Led Zeppelin Reunion At Last?
According to reports, the singer is on board for the oft-mooted Zep get-together tour.
It's reported a Led Zeppelin tour could now be on the cards with the full band. According to a report in - wait for it - The Sun, singer Robert Plant has apparently caved in and agreed to join his former bandmates on the road... but only after they started auditioning other singers to take his place.
It's the latest in a long line of rumours about the legendary rock band going on a huge world tour, following their once-in-a-lifetime get together at the tribute to Atlantic Records boss Ahmet Ertegun last December. Oh, and let's not forget 1985's Live Aid.
"The rest of the band had all but given up on Robert joining them," gushed the source, "but they were determined to go ahead so had started to seriously explore other avenues. When Robert realised the band were serious about doing it without him, it made him think long and hard.
"He realised he couldn’t face the thought of not being involved. The band were over the moon when he told them the news. They are now forging ahead with the tour plans and they can’t wait to get on the road."
Fish all over the world have been put on high alert (if you don't get this, you should really read 'Hammer Of The Gods').
