LED ZEP TO TOUR WITHOUT PLANT

ROBERT PLANT CALLS ZEPPELIN REUNION REPORTS RIDICULOUS

FASCINATING FACT 6046

Drummer JASON BONHAM is urging LED ZEPPELIN fans not to be "greedy" as the internet heats up with reunion tour stories. The veteran rockers have so far refused to confirm rumours of a 2008 world tour, following their triumphant live return at a benefit concert in London earlier this month (Dec07), and Bonham is tiring of all the speculation. Bonham, the son of Led Zeppelin's original drummer, John, who died in 1980, insists fans should be lucky the group reunited at all. He says, "I'm still the new guy and I wouldn't know (if they're planning a tour). Is it gonna be (happening) again? Don't be greedy... "If they do it again, of course I would love to (join them). But that's up to them. Only time will tell." And Bonham admits he is still trying to come to terms with the overwhelming experience of the 10 December concert: "It kinda feels surreal, like it never really happened in some way... (I was) amazed I pulled it off."

Hello foghat, in response to your message, have you ever seen Jason Bonham play? He is dynamic, and in demand by groups other than Led Zep. A far cry from "trying to fill his dad's shoes". He played with them after Bonham Sr. passed on, and to me, is as much a part of the group as his father. It was great to read your encouragement, no matter how talented someone might be, it's always good to know there is someone out there who wishes you well. Plus, it's always interesting to read others experiences in the Led Zep era. But he's been around a while, and I hope a lot longer. He has a great deal to offer. p.s. To the board - apologies for the typo on "upsoming", obviously should've been upcoming.....

I just wanted to say, I would have loved to have seen Led Zeppelin in concert last month..I can only imagine the over whelming feeling of playing that concert in front of the 20,000 fans.. I never got to see Led Zeppelin in concert, but have been a fan since I was 14. Your a great drummer!!! If, Led Zeppelin goes on tour, I won't miss this time.. I did get to see Foreigner last month at Mizner in Boca, great show... Best to you.
