JIMMY PAGE - PAGE MANAGER: 'LED ZEPPELIN ARE OVER'

PAGE MANAGER: 'LED ZEPPELIN ARE OVER'

Plans for JIMMY PAGE and JOHN PAUL JONES to hit the road as LED ZEPPELIN in 2009 have been scrapped - because the rockers can't find a singer to replace ROBERT PLANT.
Just a day after Peter Mensch, a spokesman for Page's management firm, defended the rock duo's plans to tour without their famous frontman, he is now attempting to end the speculation about a semi-reunion by telling Music Radar Led Zeppelin is "completely over".
Mensch says, "Led Zeppelin are over! If you didn't see them in 2007, you missed them. It's done. I can't be any clearer than that... There are absolutely no plans for them to continue. Zero. Frankly, I wish everybody would stop talking about it."
Page and Jones were hoping to follow up a reunion show they performed in London at the end of 2007 with new shows, but Plant, who has since found success with musical partner Alison Krauss, had no interest in touring with his former bandmates.
And, despite reports Alter Bridge star Myles Kennedy had been drafted in to replace Plant, Mensch insists all reunion plans have been scrapped.
He reveals the band auditioned singers but "no one worked out".
