LED ZEP 'INCOMPLETE', SAYS PLANT

Robert Plant has said that he is not behind a LED ZEPPELIN reunion as the band are "incomplete".

The band reformed for a sold-out one-off gig at London's O2 arena in 2007, which has led to much speculation that the band will embark on a full tour.

However, Plant feels the band can never be the same without legendary drummer John Bonham, who passed away in 1980.

Speaking to Ben Jones on Absolute Radio, the singer said revisiting past glories is an "incredibly delicate" thing to do.

"The disappointment that could be there once you commit to that and the comparisons to something that was basically fired by youth and a different kind of exuberance to now, its very hard to go back and meet that head on and do it justice," said Plant.

He added that it is important to "guard the discretion" of what the band created in the past.

Meanwhile, ALTER BRIDGE frontman Myles Kennedy recently said he was grateful to have had the opportunity to audition for the band.
