Did a check and I haven't seen any plans to stream today's tribute show in Los Angeles like they did for the London show earlier this month. Anyone seen anything suggesting otherwise?

Couple of recent Robert Plant and Alison Krauss interviews to promote their current US tour leg:

To clarify: There's nothing in this article that suggests a release date being announced imminently. This confusion seems to stem from other music news websites writing up the LedZepNews story and introducing the suggest that a release date is coming. The LedZepNews article only covers the fact that a promotional campaign has been ready for years.

Not trying to be rude but, do they? Would be great news if so.

Yep the girl in the photo is the daughter of the couple who own the cottage, it's not Zofia.

According to the uploader of this video on Youtube (Bill Welychka), this is a rarely seen unearthed interview with Robert Plant from 2005.
I had no idea Robert used to have what sounds like a slight cockney accent!

This is the online version of the print interview published in Classic Rock Magazine's 300th issue that was available in early April.

Right, so one source is Page himself, not exactly a disinterested party here. Halfin's comments do support the notion that Plant doesn't want new Zep releases to distract from his solo work. But he also acknowledges that there is some holdup due to Page himself.
I'd also caution that Halfin's comments are likely to be just what he was told by Page, so he's not exactly independent.

What two accounts? One of which is presumably Page, who's not a disinterested party here.
Sounds like Eyekhan is referring to Page's recent comments in the Uncut Magazine interview here: https://ledzepnews.com/2022/03/15/led-zeppelin-isnt-releasing-live-recordings-because-the-band-members-cant-agree-about-them/
And also Ross Halfin's comments made during an episode of The Vinyl Guide podcast last year: https://ledzepnews.com/2021/08/15/led-zeppelin-have-the-tapes-ross-halfin-explained-led-zeppelins-archive-of-live-shows/

It turns out that Jimmy claims he’s too busy working on his own stuff. I think we may be back to his “I want to be seen to be playing, hopefully next year” comments
Some outlets are making the claim that Jimmy Page has explained why he refused to play on Ozzy Osbourne's new album, but this isn't true.
NME, for example, wrote a story with the headline: "Jimmy Page says he refused to appear on Ozzy Osbourne’s new album".
To be clear, Page has said nothing of the sort. Instead, he was asked by Classic Rock Magazine in its 300th issue what he's been up to for the past few years and that's where he made the comments about potential new solo projects.
NME's claim that "the Led Zeppelin legend has now explained that he refused to appear on the album because he was too busy working on his own projects" is misleading and incorrect. We don't know if Page was ever actually asked to appear on the album outright.

Bizarre - on March 1 it was reported that he had begun work on his basement extension https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-10564523/EXC-Robbie-Williams-begins-work-super-basement-17-5m-London-mansion.html

Looks like the Express wanted to pick up some clicks from the Glastonbury lineup announcement so wrote up part of Robert Plant's Dan Rather interview from 2018

Do you mean this photograph of the band? https://www.discogs.com/release/5625341-Led-Zeppelin-Two-Days-Before
From a brief Google search, it appears to be at Bath Festival, June 1970 https://before-i-remember.tumblr.com/post/184393491150/led-zeppelin-at-bath-festival-1970

Are you associated with the auction business GottaHaveRockAndRoll? If so, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on the company's repeated auction listings of drum sticks claimed by Jeff Ocheltree to have belonged to John Bonham, despite John's son Jason Bonham publicly denying this in an Instagram post. Previous thread on this subject here:

The blog post you linked to here is misleading. "Jimmy Page Plans To Tour Again Soon" is the headline, backed up by a claimed "recent" interview that Jimmy Page gave to GQ.
There are no direct quotes from the interview in the Classic Rock History post, but it appears that the author is referring to a year-old interview that Page gave to GQ for its December 2020 edition. It's available to read online here: https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/culture/article/jimmy-page-interview
Here's the relevant section that the author is using to claim there's a planned Page tour in the works:
"When we first went into lockdown I thought, 'Right, now’s the time to start thinking about coming back at some point and being able to perform.' But it’s such a very sad and desperate time and what this virus has done internationally to families, to the arts and everything we love and hold dear and the whole concert situation, it does worry me. Playing live is so important for young musicians. When we were young, we all had these little gigs, hoping to play somewhere bigger and it’s such an important part of that communion of musicians playing together. For me it’s always been the most important thing. I will never be one of those people who’ll record alone and send someone a file. I never went into music in the first place to do that, it was for playing together and this is what it means. We need to play with people, we need gigs and we need community. Because without that, music means nothing."

Good to hear. At least we know a little something.

RH putting his signature on bootleg LPs and selling them for thousands of dollars with the label name of those who Peter Grant would have liked to choke 40+ years ago and had to hide everything they did for fear of prosecution is absolute crap.
Agreed - this felt like a poor taste move to me and I'm surprised there isn't more frustration over it.

Does anyone have that exact quote from Robert a few years ago when asked what was left in the Zeppelin vault? "Just small bits and pieces in the bottom of the boat". 😆
“There’s a lot of stuff rolling around. It’s a bit like water in the bottom of a paddle boat. But the thing is we didn’t even play together ’til September so we have a couple of months to connect and say, ‘What’s going on?'”
BATH FESTIVAL 1970 16mm Footage
in Led Zeppelin Master Forum
Posted
Looks like Peter Whitehead's footage finally found a home. His estate had been hoping to strike a deal with Led Zeppelin that would lead to the footage emerging for the festival's 50th anniversary in 2020 but that sadly never happened.
