When you were once one of the biggest bands on Earth and you break several years of silence by starting a mysterious countdown on a website, you're kind of begging for some reunion hype. But the surviving members of Led Zeppelin were reportedly not in the mood for any talk of getting back together during their press conference yesterday (Oct. 9).
They might be rolling out their new concert film with all the pomp and circumstance of a full-fledged studio album, but that doesn't mean the surviving members of Led Zeppelin are making any plans for future projects.
Led Zeppelin have confirmed that their 2007 reunion concert at London's O2 arena will be released in "multiple configurations" as 'Celebration Day' on Nov. 19, 2012. Prior to this, the film will screen at movie theaters across the globe on Oct. 17.
Led Zeppelin have been announced as one of the recipients of the 2012 John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts honors. The 35th annual celebration will take place Sunday, Dec. 2 and Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones will all be on hand to receive the honor.
While the countdown on Led Zeppelin's Facebook page is still stuck on No. 1, there are reports that the long-rumored release of the band's 2007 show at the O2 Arena in London will take place first in theaters next month, and then on DVD in November. It seems their big announcement may have leaked.
Start making travel plans for Sept. 16, as London’s Royal Albert Hall will play host to the 2012 edition of the Sunflower Jam. The event is a night filled with music performances that will be hosted by actor Jeremy Irons.
Last week Led Zeppelin fans celebrated the band’s iconic fourth album’s 40th birthday. If you dusted off your original vinyl copy and bought a new needle for the occasion, one thing is for certain: you’re getting old.
