Holy shit! This was the greatest fucking setlist ever!

Hopefully Plant has changed his stance and will go out on one last glorious trek with Zep....I hope....ray:
EdgeIsTooSexy said:thanks for the video!
they have to do one reunion tour, i mean come on! Look how many people who wanted to go to the london show. and the way they had to distribute tickets through a lottery system was crazy.

yeah well if they do any kind of tour imagine that x a gazillion people all vying for a ticket while all the scalpers have their grubby lil paws on all the tix selling them for thousands of dollars. Especially if they only do a handful of shows (3 in nyc etc) it will be insane i tell ya! Makes you not want them to tour with all that chaos that all us regular folk (not rich) would have to endure.. I cringe thinking about it.
Reggie Thee Dog said:I can't see a new album being dropped by Page/Plant/Jones with Bonham on drums. I mean Jason did a smash up job on Monday...but a new LED ZEPPELIN album...seems far fetched to me. I dunno, I'm just not feeling it...
A tour...
Album...
Butterscotch said:I wouldn't have a problem with them touring one more time doing only old material. That is what most fans want. They can give it to us once more before they get too old. It won't be the same without Bonzo but his son does him proud.
Thanks to all who posted pics and links.
Pinball Wizard said:There are many ways of constructing a tour that would not qualify as a regression or revisitation. From the sounds of it, Zeppelin's back catalogue of unplayed live material would be sufficient enough to keep the energy and intrigue there for the band (at least for Page). As well, they can introduce new songs or instrumental jams without having to release a formal album. Zeppelin (with or without Bonham) has always been verbose and diverse in the live setting, so it's not hard to picture how the band would operate within the context of their existing body of work. It would be far from merely a greatest hits tour (which would be quite varied on a nightly basis anyway), if they treated new gigs as an opportunity to explore songs that they have not yet sculpted live.

U2FanPeter said:Did Edge dance like he was at an outdoor show in New Orleans?
U2Fanatic4ever said:
nice take on it all... I just don't think doing that way would be enough to convince Robert Plant to do the tour. This is the problem, ie the crossroads that they are at right now. Page and JPJ have been for a tour but Plant has not. They had to do a lot of convincing to get him to do the show at the O2, cuz he didn't want to do it initially. There are always ways of doing it I am sure. But I just don't see it happening in that way.

Both Bono and Edge were there among the rest of the show business industry... It was more like who wasn't there. I have seen pics of Edge at the show somewhere. Haven't seen pics of Bono there. Someone who was at the afterparty saw Bono and got his autograph...

I kinda seen everyone apart from bono and edge at the gig
Edge must of come in through the back door or should i say ' In through the out door'

There was a video clip someone on the forum posted this week which showed some celebrities arriving (thru whatever entrance they did). Edge was on that video.
If they can't get Plant, consider Chris Robinson. Again
