Led Zeppelin will be holding a Press Conference at the O2 Complex, on Wednesday, 12 September (TOMORROW!!!) at 4.00pm British Summer Time (BST is GMT plus 1 Hour).

I am relieved that my premature prognostication from earlier in the Summer has finally come to fruition, as outlined in my original heads-up, as featured in the link below:

Led Zep Press Conference @ O2 - 12 Sept. @ 4pm...
GMT I take it?

British Summer Time which is +1 hour on GMT.

What I really wanna know, is if its one hour behind our CET.
Since we also got summer time, I reckon its so.

The time in London now is exactly 5.00pm!

Yeah and here it's 6.

They were a popular rock band in the 70's. Try googling them or researching them in wikpedia.

What is today, people? The 11th.

when are tickets likely to go on sale - friday ?


sc uk

p.s. good call SonicDreamer, you were right after all!

OK, I don't exactly get this - the band is getting together for only ONE SHOW to promote a BEST OF that's a copy of an older best of (since when do they have to promote ANYTHING? Zeppelin stuff sells itself).... All that work, all that rehearsing and arguing for 1 effing show !?!?!? Something smells fishy here (and we know what happened in the past when they did these one show things - LIVE AID 85, ATLANTIC RECORDS ANNIVERSARY SHOW - THEY SUCKED !!!) This makes no sense what-so-ever. I say this is a trial run for a short-ish, world wide tour hitting all the major cities.... there's no way it makes sense to go through all that bullsh*t for ONE SHOW (that for sure would be sloppy due to nerves and all that - imagine the pressure). Plant and Page are no dumb sh*ts and this seems like a very DS idea... I say this is the beginning of something bigger, that's the only thing that makes sense to me.....

maybe, we'll find out at 4pm.
hardly worth worrying about though, as the entire world, seems to want tickets to this show....internet will go into meltdown...
chances of being sucessful are remote.

Yeah spot on! it doesn't make sense unless it is just the start of something bigger, perhaps it is a test run. I mean they were pretty awful at their previous reunions so maybe they just want to test the water in London and see if they can deliver.

Yup; what he said!

Did Page come to the Stones show at the 02 just to have an idea of the accoustic ???

I'd say he went, but probably spent all his time wondering

a) is keith going bald
b) Ronnie is no replacement for Mick Taylor
c) the set list is too predictable...

Any chance of a webcast somewhere ???
