WHOLE LOTTA TOURING COMING UP:
One of the worst kept secrets of the last several months has taken a step towards being official.
A Led Zeppelin re-union, featuring Jason Bonham's joining Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones is set to happen in 2003. I have heard there are details yet to be revealed, but for now, here's the first press story.
This one is from the Sun newspaper in the UK.
Led Zeppelin to tour again
LEGENDARY rockers Led Zeppelin are set to re-group after 22 years for a money-spinning stadium tour of America. The three surviving members — singer Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones — plan to hit the road next summer.
The trio hope to pocket £6.4million for the shows.
Robert, 54, Jimmy, 58, and 56-year-old John Paul met two weeks ago at the offices of their management firm Trinifold.
They buried the hatchet over Page and Plant's 1990s tour, which John Paul only learned about from a newspaper. A band insider said last night: "If the right offer comes up they will do it."
Trinifold added: "Jimmy is itching to do something, but there is nothing firm yet."
Zeppelin split in 1980 after a booze binge killed drummer John Bonham. His son Jason is set to play drums on the tour.
The band, famed for songs like Stairway to Heaven and Whole Lotta Love, are second only to the Beatles in worldwide album sales.
They still hold records for crowds at their 1970s concerts.
A music industry insider said: "They had so many hits that I am sure the reunion would be a major success."

I bet Randy would find some fault in the situation and not do it.
I heard a very interesting tidbit on the radio yesterday. Looks like there is the possibility of a Pink Floyd reunion sometime next year. Seems that time may heal all wounds, as voth Waters and Gilmour have both said that there is a possibility of playing together. Now how about Randy Jackson opening up. That would be a show!

No, the ultimate bill:
Pink Floyd
Led Zeppelin
Zebra
Zebra would open, and Floyd and Zep would rotate each night to close. Randy could come out and jam with Page. Can you imagine the power that would have? Page and Jackson, sitting on 2 bar stools, just strumming........if there is a GOD!!!!!
Tell me when those tickets go on sale and I'll set up my tent right now!!

Let them think us crazy. We still would get the best seats
