Report: Fans Await Rare LED ZEPPELIN Concert

December 6, 2007

Mike Collett-White of Reuters reports: The songs remain the same and so will the passion when fans from around the world gather to see LED ZEPPELIN, one of rock music's most influential bands, reunite for a one-off gig on Monday.

Singer Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones will be joined on stage in London by drummer Jason Bonham, son of the fourth original band member John, whose death in 1980 prompted LED ZEPPELIN's break-up.

Songs like "Stairway to Heaven", "Whole Lotta Love" and "Communication Breakdown" have helped LED ZEPPELIN sell 300 million albums, the bulk in their heyday of the 1970s when they could lay claim to being the world's biggest rock group.

When LED ZEPPELIN announced they would play a tribute concert to the late music promoter Ahmet Ertegun, who signed them in 1968, the ticket Web site crashed and the band counted the number of people trying to log on in their millions.
