Led Zeppelin reform

Led Zeppelin will reform to play a special tribute concert to former Atlantic Records label boss Ahmet Ertegun on November 26 at London's O2 Arena. This will mark the first time the seminal British rockers have played live together since 1985's Live Aid concert.

Robert Plant (vocals), Jimmy Page (guitar) and John Paul Jones (bass) will be joined by Jason Bonham, the son of their late drummer John Bonham.

Support will come from Pete Townshend, Bill Wyman And The Rhythm Kings, Foreigner and Paolo Nutini.

Tickets are priced £125 and will be allocated at random (limited to two per household) to fans who register their details at www.ahmettribute.com.

Outdated and boring. Old is not another word for classic.

Posted by Matt | September 12, 2007 5:52 PM | Reply to this

They're like an awesome band, who influenced a generation of music. But I'm sorry they're doing it for the money, £125 for one ticket, are you kidding me?!

WHAT?!

All you stupid emo kids. Yous have no respect for bands that were huge influences on the bands you listen to now. If Led Zep never happened then most bands that you hear now wouldn't exist. I'm glad their reuniting to pay tribute to their Drummer who recently died, not their record label boss. So show some resepect you ungrateful arseholes.

cmon u got to be glad that such an iconic band is re-uniting
but ye ticket prices!

I think that it's fantastic that Zep are reforming, even if it's only a one night show, but £125 a ticket?! Surely Plant and co must know that most of their fans aren't wealthy enough to afford such excessive prices?

to everyone who keeps banging on about, they are doing it for the money,
please shut it, the money is going to scholarships for kids to play music in uk usa turkey, they are still out selling bands of today and certainly do not do it for the money for themselves,
the bloody link is not working, i so want to go it hurts,

Sean is right. Fucking emos have no respect for their elders. Can their messed up minds comprehend legends like Led zeppelin, deep purple and black sabbath? Emo is wank. They don't even understand maiden and priest!!!

1977 - Yes, 2007 - No

£125 and Milliions trying to register. !! Go to Download and see the legacy Led Zep left behind. They're just a band .. ..

Led Zep

Its interesting to see the Kerrang! fans from back in the day (when K! actually covered decent bands instead of FoB every week) vs. the new skool fans of the sell-out, sensationalist bullshit Kerrang! (don't believe this week's issue, it has NOTHING to do with Foo Fighters splitting up)...

Here we are, telling you how fucking important and great Led Zeppelin were as a band... "old is not another word for classic"... noone said it was, dickhead, and there are hundreds of bands from the 60s, 70s and 80s that noone gives a shit about anymore... but the DO about Zep, cos Zep FUCKING RULE!... and you little cocksuckers don't give a shit
Needless to say i'm not going to this gig, £125 is a ridiculous amount of money... but the point remains, Led Zeppelin were a zillion times better than any band to come out this decade.

And to the twat near the top, John Bonham died in the 70s, this show really is about the record producer.

Posted by Jon | September 13, 2007 1:51 PM | Reply to this

wtf?

why are you lot so pissed about the price, its a small fee to see one of the greatest bands in the world.

Posted by person | September 13, 2007 7:44 PM | Reply to this

the tickets r a wee bit expensive but c'mon man its led zepplin yay!!!:)

Posted by kt | September 13, 2007 8:09 PM | Reply to this

Whine about the ticket prices if you like, and yes £125 seems expensive, but it's been reported that 20 million people hit the registration site in one day. Chances are you won't have to pay that cash. What I love is the fact that my favourite band can still create this buzz nearly 30 yrs after splitting. And all you guys mocking the band; ask yourself is your favourite band going to create such a fuss in thirty years time. The answer by the way is -NO! No other band is, has, or will

Posted by Steve | September 13, 2007 8:51 PM | Reply to this

What :O

I'm glad that they are rejoing but the ticket proce to see them! It is way too exspensive! I can't afford it! I'm gonna miss them :( :(

For Sale: One Soul

Well, I'm in the ballot, everything is crossed. Now if I'm successful, I've got a couple of things for sale, my soul, my self respect and if that doesn't raise £125 (don't forget the booking fee they'll stick us for too) I'm got a nice kidney if anyone wants it?

Posted by Bert | September 14, 2007 12:33 AM | Reply to this

hello

it's led zeppelin.

i'm completely broke but will some how find a way to raise £125 (if i get a ticket) to hear and see the words of stairway to heaven come from robert plant's mouth.

"There are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
Theres still time to change the road youre on.
And it makes me wonder."

it's the greatest song ever.
sometimes you have to pay a lot to see something great.

If it wasn't for Zeppelin there wouldn't be an age of rock like there is now.

Led Zeppelin

You know, I'm 16, and I nearly hit the bloody roof with excitement when I heard they were reforming. It'll be interesting to see how Jason's drumming compares to his legendary fathers'

oh dear

it is a sign of the times when you get kerrang reporting the come back of one of the most influential bands ever FACT and all you get is a prepubesent wanker saying they are out dated.

they revolutionised music, just because you like HIM, MCR and other 'bands' in the same ilk it doesnt mean you can disrispect the legends!

also can we not have this split with old vs new skool. it doesnt need to happen. i like all music that is done for musics sake (not for money or to make sad little 12 year olds cut there wrists) STOP THE HATE, BRING THE LOVE, LISTEN TO KASHMIRE

Posted by Lizaarrrr | September 22, 2007 10:47 PM | Reply to this

You know as soon as someone says they don't like Led Zep the fans immediately assume that they must be emo's or whatever. I like most classic rock, from The Beatles to Black Sabbath, and I can't stand Led Zeppelin!
