Trevor: you're grounded for the rest of September. I'll wake you up when the month ends. A wee bit of Zeppelin history, because much of it was before your time....
Led Zeppelin were rock gods--and they went tour de force with wrecking hotel rooms with wild, drug and drinking laden debauchery and merriment worthy of classic rock gods.
But their excesses into this lifestyle of Rock Royalty led to the death of one of their own--drummer John Bonham. Mournful, and likely left feeling guilt-ridden of Bonham's death from excessive Vodka drinking, the band broke up on the heels of their last album as a band: "In Through The Out Door".
"Pictures at 11" was one of Plant's killer fine solo works.
Complex burdensome legalities wouldn't allow just Page and Plant to build another Led Zeppelin, so they did a work-around, forming their new band "The Honeydrippers", but the reunion was short lived.
Frankly, I welcome the full throttle return of the surviving three orginial Led Zeppelin crew; a classy fitting tribute to Bonham.
I think Jon Bonham's spirit can rest in total peace, knowing The Show Must--and will now-- Go On.

I saw the Doobie Bros. on a Reunion tour. I heard Black Sabbath Reunion, boring! I taped the Cream Reunion, wicked! I saw Rick Wakeman solo before he reunited with Yes in 2002-03 that was amazing!.
For some, either they like it or don't. I personally respect the musicians, I grew up with the original rock bands. I mean some bands may have the magic after 30 years, others may not. But, if this gets recorded, I'm personally getting a copy!
I mean Reunions are like starting over again from an odd hiatus. I dont see why they cant have a chance. To Each their own.

Yes, there's no point. They're around sixty years old by now, and Robert Plant especially will pretty much ruin the legend that is Led Zeppelin. He's too old to do those wails and there's absolutely no point.

Robert Plants voice could melt the polar icecaps quicker than global warming, yeah its that bad. So now I'm subjected to that agony again. OMG! why don't they just go live on an island somewhere remote and stay retired??I have just never seen what all the hoopla was about with that band anyway. Whoopee doo...FYI..they NEVER had a number one song in America, just in case you were wondering, not that it really matters anyway! All about personal taste, and you just got my view.

Some people like yourself won't want to see it, but then there will be people who would jump at the chance - each to their own with whether or not they want to see it.
