The Cult Opening For Zeppelin?

Yikes.

Old news. November 17th, that was said. I Heard about it on Nov. 18th. and here we are on the 25th.

If that dude was just full of it, then I am callin for a complete and total 'whoever that band was STRIKE'.

who was that band again?

*If* true, then the venues will probably be large and ticket prices high. Can Robert Plant still hit the notes vocally for a whole show let alone a whole tour ?

You mean Lez Zeppelin?

that would be huge!

it seems as if the whole situation in darfur is beginning to look like a cultural trend. i would very much like to know what everyone who wears a darfur shirt is doing to help the downtrodden people of the area.

I read in an interview with Robert Plant that he can hit notes better than ever.

I call BS. Why would Zep need a warmup act like the Cult? It is not like they would need the extra fanbase.

Of course if they tour tickets will be expensive and the shows in large venues. What do you expect from one of the most profitable music acts in history? They are not gonna play in your local club for $15 bucks

I would rather see The Mars Volta cover Led Zeppelin. And some Queen and BeeGees while we are at it, Cedric could pull it off easily.

The only one worth seeing is JPJ - he's the man!!!

the othere two are washed up

What I expect is a consistent show.

Turn up the zep, I would definitely go to at least one of those shows should the rumors be true.

On another note - Lez Zeppelin is a really, really good show, check them out if you get a chance!

Please... Why would Zep choose the Cult of all bands? C'Mon! They'd sooner have some b.s. updated rock act like the Foo opening...IF they were actually going out on the road. If the cult actually did get an offer, it'll probably be pulled after this nonsense. Either way, smells like cheap promo for a dead, er...ummmm.. I mean...REVAMPED band from the 80's. Good luck.

I say save your money and go see Dread Zeppelin (if they are still around) Tortelvis was the greatest frontman ever and they made zep fresher than ever. Actually the Page & Plant shows in '96 were pretty awesome but I don't believe they could pull off the same excitement these days. One of the biggest musical disapointments for myself was finally seeing Ace Frehley on the kiss reunion tour after cranking their albums (particually she from Alive) forever and witnessing how washed up and lame he was. I hope zep doesn't cash in and tarnish their legacy. Ian Ashbury is a great frontman and Billy Duffy is pure rawk-The Cult deserves respect.

I'm sure Zep can get it together to pull off a one-off concert. I saw both Page Plant incarnations and they did an excellent job. The Cult is a kickass band. "Firewoman" and "Love Removal Machine" are great tunes that rose far above the Motley Crues and Poisons of the world. Did Peter Criss sing "Beth" at the Kiss show? I bet that must have been horrible too.
