Possibly we’re a couple of days late on this ‘breaking news’, but a perusal of the interweb tells us that Led Zeppelin are planning to reunite for a one-off show in tribute to the late and legendary Ahmet Ertegun, their former record label boss.
Which of course is fine and well. Perhaps a tad more troubling is the rife speculation that they will then continue their collusion across the world. Yes, a world tour as such.
Given the news yesterday that The Verve have reunited ‘for the love of music’ (seriously, don’t get us started), we’re pretty distressed already. This however, is a little more stressful, given that The Verve are still under the age of 55, and only have two decent albums to destroy, whereas Led Zeppelin have an era-defining back catalogue that stretches to hours of ‘tunes’.
Arses.
