Near the eve of Led Zeppelin's long-awaited reunion concert Monday in London, band members are saying it may not be their last.

Guitarist Jimmy Page, singer Robert Plant and bass player John Paul Jones will perform at London O2 Arena, as a benefit tribute to Atlantic Records co-founder Ahmet Ertegun, who died last year. It'll be the rock band's first concert in almost two decades.

"I must say that after our initial get-together it was so exhilarating and fun that I did feel I would like to do more," Page, 63, told Q music magazine, adding he has new songs the band could record.

Jones, 61, told Rolling Stone, "I guess the door has been left slightly ajar. We'll have to see how we feel about it afterwards." Plant, 59, told Rolling Stone "If people don't talk about a tour, anything is likely. The more people talk, the more pressure it puts on everybody."

Led Zeppelin split up in 1980 after the death of drummer John Bonham, whose son Jason will fill in Monday.
