Okay Plant, Page & JPJ finally announced that they will play a show together as Led Zeppelin. So far it’s only a one-off tribute concert to Ahmet Ertegun (the recently deceased record executive) that was suggested by his widow. The show will take place in London on November 26 at the 02 Arena. Their opening acts are no slouches either, scheduled to appear are: Bill Wyman’s Rhythm Stars (former Stones bassist), Pete Townshend (Who), Paolo Nutini (who?) and Foreigner. Oh yeah, sitting behind the drumkit will be Jason Bonham, son of the late John Bonham.

Whether a tour will follow is still unknown, but classic rock radio should have a field day with this. Just one more excuse to play Stairway to Heaven…

Murmurings about a Led Zeppelin get together have been audible for quite some time and this weekend advertisements appeared in England offering tickets for a Zep show at the 02 in London. Promoter Harvey Goldsmith, who along with Bob Geldof brought us Live Aid, was closely involved with the launch of this venue, issued a cryptic public statement in response to the ads. “There have been at least four events advertised which I suspect either don’t exist or where no tickets are on sale or indeed dates finalized,” Goldsmith said. His comments, which interestingly don’t include a straight-up “it’s not happening” denial, have only fueled the reunion-rumor fires, The Guardian reports.

Note: If John Paul Jones refuses to play maybe they get Michael Anthony to join them.
