Ok I just read this over at Billboard and I must say I'm a little put off by this... my very core is a bit shaken actually. ( OK I'm a bit dramatic yes but I am bothered ) It's hard enough to think about Zeppelin playing without John Bonham but with no Plant as well... I don't know... just doesn't seem right. Actually replacing ANY of the surviving members of Zeppelin just seems very wrong to me. I'm a huge Zeppelin fan, and would probably even give up my first born to see them live, but without Plant singing, it just wouldn't be Led Zeppelin.

I am also a big fan of Zeppelin. They are my number 1 band of all times. I have seen plant/page 2 times in Croatia. This story about the new singer didn't make me happy at all. I am not going to see that Zeppelin live just because it's not the real thing even if the singer is great. The greatest thing about them is that they didn't change line up for 20 years. That made them unique unlike Deep Purple where Ritchie Blackmore was changing people like socks everyday. I wish that Plant agrees to tour and I can finally go and see my favorite band before they are too old to play. Btw, Jason Bonham is great on drums.

Led Zeppelin is also one of my favorite bands.
Good side of the story: they may actually go on tourney then... Bad side of the story: It will not be Led Zeppelin, even if they keep the name. Just as example, Velvet Revolver is not Guns n' Roses and also to me Guns n' roses (axl and others) is not the real Guns n' roses....

would probably even give up my first born to see them live, but without Plant singing, it just wouldn't be Led Zeppelin. without Plant you'd just stretch it to that they get to mess your first born up a lil' bit. Led Zeppelin without Plant is nothing short of sacrilege I saw a rescent interview with Plant (a Swedish made) where he claimed some other present projects, guess he's too involved there. If that's what's driving him, that's fine. Was rather hopeing others would prioritize their solo acts instead of going live with an uncomplete band. -------------------- My bands homepage

I also think that Led Zeppelin was the greatest rock band of all time. And I'm sorry that Plant is not touring with them. It won't be the same.

Well it would of sounded different either way. You think over the years plants voice has to have changed (Which it has). Plus you can't blame the other 3. Plant said he didn't want to rejoin led zeppelin. But still it isnt led zeppelin without him.

Plant said he didn't want to rejoin led zeppelin. But still it isnt led zeppelin without him. Plant's voice has changed but he can still rock. He proved in O2 arena in London that they can do an excellent show. He has the most unique voice of all legendary rock bands from 70's and a replacement would never sound like that. Brian May has done a clever move with Paul Rodgers. Great singer and very popular but his task wasn't to copy Freddy. They also play "Bad Company" and "Free" songs. Only that option was the right one and they sound great. I don't think this would work for Zeppelin though. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

I was going to make a strong negative post here until I read that Myles Kennedy was going to be the reaplacement.. I 'm a big fan of him, his band Alter Bridge and this could mean him coming to sing in Argentina. But I preffer him coming with Alter Bridge and not making covers.
However Led Zeppelin is one of my favourite bands of all times and this shouldn't be named "Led Zeppelin". It's like a tribute... It's the same than the new "Queen". Queen doesn't exist without Freddy Mercury so I'm not interested in going to the show. -------------------- My lessons

They changed their name to Queen with Paul Rodgers to be fair to Queen And they did put on a great show - but yes, it was more like a cover band without Freddy -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Well who knows what the guys are thinking, maybe they just don't wanna do that kind of work or just are tired, I can't blame them really. They will not sound as before that's for sure tho.
