Led Zeppelin Reunion: Journalist Called a 'Schmuck'

added 10 October 2012 at 15.03

Led Zeppelin have called a journalist a 'shmuck' for asking the band if they're planning another re-union...

Robert Plant - apparently sick of being asked the question - called the journalist who queried about the future of the band a "schmuck".

The exchange happened at a press conference in New York where Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and Jimmy Page were promoting the new DVD of their 2007 02 Arena gig, Celebration Day.

When prompted if Led Zeppelin might continue the reunion in future, the singer wasn't best pleased.

"We've been thinking about all sorts of things.... then we can't remember what we were thinking about," he joked to laughs fromt he audience before calling the person who asked a "schmuck."

"I think it's disappointing for people when the answer is no," a more diplomatic Page said, before adding, "that's what it is now."
