They are playing at Oslo Spektrum 18.05.08

(so no Led Zeppelin tour at that time)

Damm!

PLANT can MUTI - TASK, gimme a break.... weaving 2 shows....there'll be a tour, bet my testicles on it....

Robert is the most sexy man...after old jaggerboy...(in 1969)
But now he's a stupid old @#$%&
so sad

huh? effing talent is still there... the rest of it is called AGING.....(check into it, happens to everybody) SEXY MAN? maybe to you, whatever, him and Jagger are GREAT SINGERS....

Robert is my man! He is great....and I love Jimmy Page....what I meant....rock & roll is gone...so sad

well, yeah, rock and roll is dying, that is very sad.... only The Stones and Zep can show the young people what Rock and roll is... There's still THE WHITE STRIPES and JET but for how long.......

Dear HelterSkelter...we know exactly what we FEEL. We don't need words...

I love Stones and Zep............and I don't give a shit about young people. They are just as stupid as my parents. My God, even my 3 year old daugther agree. So there is a future for r&r

Seeing Plant w/o Zep would be about as exciting as seeing Jagger w/o Keef, Ronnie & Charlie...
For me it wouldn't be, unless it was in a local club near my house for $50 or less than I'd go. A high priced ticket in a stadium or arena? Naaahhhh....

I agree NumberOne

They'll play Paris on May 13. (Not LZ of course)

Europe in the Spring, USA in the Summer. WTF??? Is he really gonna let THIS stand in the way of a Zep tour??? Is the man insane???

"This" happens to be a both artistic and commercial success, and besides, you can´t blame the man for touring with a nice lady instead of a bunch of grumpy old men.

The money they would be making should make them considerably less grumpy.

Do you always think in terms of money?

No, I'm thinking in terms of what would make the most people the happiest, and it sure ain't seeing Plant crooning with some country chick while Page rests up for something that may now never happen. These things require a strike while the iron is hot. If Plant gets too distracted with this other nonsense and allows too much time to pass, the moment may be lost forever.

Thumbs up for Plant. Touring behind a great album/project instead of now choosing for the fast bucks.

I'm just glad that this great album didn't get lost in the albeit understandable palaver surrounding the Led Zeppelin gig, hats off to Plant for sticking with it. yes strike while the iron is hot indeed, the plant/krauss iron will only be hot for a small time span, the led zeppelin iron will be as hot as a burning air balloon for many a year.

i agree rocknroll is dying , in about 20 years we'll have nothing , just shit and more shit

Many a year? Page is sixty-four for chrissakes! It's now or never.

How does Plant go from singing "In My Time Of Dying"to "Gone,Gone,Gone". I mean he mad a criticaly acclaimed record with Allison Kraus. But what does he have to prove by touring with her. It's not just that he can make a lot of money with a Zep tour. But creatively,they can try different things they never did before. As in never before or rarely played songs.

"It's just some friends of mine and they're busting down the door"

Zeppelin was a one off. This has been in the works forever. Wouldn't be surprised if a tour was all part of the deal before the album was recorded.

And he has also had plenty of time to do his own thing too. Pity he hasn't done much the best few decades.

who are you to judge, dan?

late.
