Let's not forget Page and Plant reunited in the 90s for 2 albums and seemed getting along! I saw their show in Miami in 95...was great even if Plant voice was already not to its old self anymore

So Plant doesn't want to tour???? Is it a reason good enough for the 3 others not to do it???Unhappy
 
There is still a Bonham behind the drums who learned the tricks from dad, Jones and Page ,the heart of the band are there...
...Does anyone has listened to the ''mighty Rearranger '' from Plant... i've got it, it's a cool album but the voice????........If not for reading ''Robert Plant'' on the cover, you wouldn't know this is the same guy who sang ''Immigrant Song''
 
So if Led Zep brings a Coverdale, i don't mind...he still got more voice than Plant as of today!Wink

Maybe Led Zeppelin could tour with Yes.  Just a thought.

Yeah but they don`t really have a singer either. Maybe they could just jam for two hours.

After Page's half hour bow concerto, that just leaves an hour and a half. What if Yes wants to play Tales of Topographic Oceans in its' entirety ?

That was my point.  Get the two half-cover bands together.

I can't find the Jack Bruce thread... I might have hallucinated it, but if I didn't, hopefully, this next article wasn't the topic of it.
 
 
But it is an interesting read... what Jack Bruce thinks of Led Zep, let's just say that "What? You’re gonna compare Eric Clapton with that f**king Jimmy Page? " isn't the meanest thing he said... Tongue
 
I love both LZ and Cream, by the way...

Still nothing happening. John has a new Them Crooked Vultures album in his schedule, and now this:

Robert Plant has reformed Band of Joy — a ’60s group that predated Led Zeppelin by two years and featured John Bonham on drums — with the addition of vocalist Patty Griffith, multi-instrumentalist Darrell Scott, guitarist/co-producer Buddy Miller, drummer Marco Giovino, and bassist Byron House. The revised band will tour this summer and release an album in the fall. Another record with Alison Krauss is also in the works, although the two reportedly won’t start on the project until next year.

Zep would have remained huge in the 80s if they had just carried on with Cozy Powell instead of John Bonham. But perhaps the albums may have declined in quality, so its for the best that they only made 8 great studio albums (I can see why people dislike Presence and In Through The Out Door, but I like even those ones) and left it at that.
Hello, mirror. So glad to see you, my friend. It's been a while...

I wouldn't be surprised if that happens. In the age of the Internet, the band's can't just sit at home and be inactive for decades and collecting the royalties of record sales. That's way 'impossible' reunions happened, like The Police, The Sex Pistols, Queen with Paul Rogers. That's way bands that fell in obscurity have to tour to survive: even in my godforsaken hometown, artists like Tony Hadley (of Spandau Ballet), Blaze Bayley (of Iron Maiden) and even Saxon are performing...not on stadiums, but in local, smallish venues.

That being said, any collaboration of Zep member(s) plus any  half-known musician/singer from the Classic Rock era is possible...why not? They can even produce something that's remotely decent, like that  Coverdale/Page album.
Percussion, sir!

Is it really even Zeppelin then?  No Bonham, no Plant, and it seems JPJ has been pushed to the shadows for so long that he has absolutely no input anyway.
