There is talk of seeing Jimmy soon. How, or where, and why is not being said. Soon as June?
I don't know if it was this board or another board, but someone was claiming to have taken Jimmy's picture for a magazine cover that was not being revealed.

B...S...
I'm sure it is. But interesting following the "Whitesnake" debacle this week.

As the story goes, more rumors on the "internets." This one calls for four nights at the dome in Toronto.
News Exclusive: Led Zeppelin Tour Toronto This Summer
May 17, 2008
Everyone knows about Led Zeppelin's reunion show in London, UK this past December. Naturally, it was both magical and nostalgic. And a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity, right?
Maybe not.
So NME confirmed late last year that Led Zeppelin had plans to go on tour sometime in 2008. Well, a reliable source just gave me a scoop on some Toronto dates. Apparently these dates will be announced shortly...but now you know.
No fancy tour of the U.S., but Toronto will have FOUR dates at Skydome/Rogers Centre this coming August. AMAZING. Hardly any bands play Skydome anymore because it's such a juggernaut of a venue and impossible to fill unless you're, well, Led Zeppelin. Or maybe Backstreet Boys.
Stay tuned for an official tour announcement, but for now start saving your dollars (cause you KNOW it's gonna be expensive) and practising your Ticketmaster skills (cause you KNOW people will be flying in from all over North America to be here) for these amazing shows.

I realize this place is an agency. But they have a list of who is touring by dividing the year into quarters. Some very interesting names on the list of late 08 tours. It's just exciting to even mention as a possibility.

Iron Maiden was the band that was on before Queen at the 85 "Rock in Rio" concert. I believe the firm was on the bill as well. Funny this is brought up. I just watched the released Live After Death dvd and they have Maiden's set from that Rock In Rio concert. I believe it is still the largest crowd Maiden had performed for. Queen closed out the show. I highly recommend the Maiden DVD. Great stuff. Watching them perform in front of over 300,000 people is amazing. Pretty sure that is where that pic with Jimmy came from.

I will be at Bonnaroo this year and it was a TREAT to see John Paul Jones all over the farm last year. I am still holding out hope that JPJ had SUCH a good time, he will bring some mates to TN with him. One can dream...
