Pants! How can they tour without Plant. Will be a total letdown.

"Robert Plant has ruled himself out of further collaborations with the band" - oh my.

Bittersweet news.
I can't fathom them without Plant. Sad.
- The Black Crowes with Page were pretty good...and Bonham's Songs of My Father was good as wellTheBlueOne

If you want to see Plant, go see him sing with that ugly chick he likes so much.

This does not rock. At all.

The bummer about Robert Plant is that he thinks his Allison Kraus collaboration is more important. I don't mind the album, but it certainly doesn't hold a candle to Physical Graffiti.

If Page and Jonesy are going to tour without Robert at least have the common human decency to not label the project "Led Zeppelin"

It's unfortunate Jason Bonham has to play a Zep tour instead of being able to focus on Damnocracy...

Pink Floyd were able to make a go of it without Waters....of course, David probably sang close to half the tunes up til then anyhow...With Richard Wright gone now, my hopes of seeing floyd again are severly diminished..however....when Dave and Nick first reformed Floyd after Roger left, it was just the two of them...Richard hadn't yet re-joined them...so....there's atleast a chance that Dave an NIck will take Floyd out on the road again....and Nick has said in countless interviews that he really wants to....
sorry ....i realize this is a Zep chat.....but atleast Floyd was able to make a go of a tour as 'floyd' without their original front man...
more or less....

What is the thing you are most proud of doing in elementary school? A painting? A little part in a play?
Now what if nearly everyone you met was like "Hey, you should really paint something like that again, i LOVE it!!!"
Why revisit or rehash a past that is so wonderful and loved? The likelihood, especially given the number of years since they've been Led Zep, is that it won't measure up.
i imagine the Raising Sand album and tour was much more fulfilling to him than playing a bunch of old songs (in a lower key so they're back in your range).
Enjoy the old albums. Get a bag, take the day off, listen to them all and then watch The Song Remains the Same. But you can hardly begrudge Plant for wanting to leave the past in the past.

I was one of the few (20,000) people lucky enough to attend the one off led zep gig last christmas. It was amazing, one of the best gigs ever, they were really tight, didn't sound aged or over-the-hill at all.
BUT robert plant was great and I can't see how they can tour without him. I respect his choice not to tour, but I agree you can't call it Lep Zep without him.
I have a feeling they might get some other famous singer to fill in. Like when Queen got Paul Rogers to sing.
I was thinking maybe it will be Dave Grohl because Page and JPJ played with foo fighters recently. That would be cool to see but it won't be led zep.

no one can sing like plant. period.
- You obviously missed a good portion of the 80's then...many tried...TheBlueOne
- Stone Fury, Kingdom Come, Early Rush Geddy Lee, Zebra, Young David Coverdale...TheBlueOne
- ..what's his face..the dead dude from Blind Melon...the guy from Mars Volta...TheBlueOne
- but then again, no one else had the total "Plant Package"TheBlueOne
- key word being "TRIED" and failed. don't site music from the 80's as an example of anything...anxiousarms
- I wasn't "site"-ing. I was "citing". And I lived the 80's so I can.TheBlueOne
- good for you for growing up in the 80's. so did i, although i'm leaving them behind.anxiousarms
