gseehq Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Having just enjoyed listening to Robert Plant on UK TV's 'This Morning' I thought I would share my feelings about his comments. Naturally the emphasis was his wonderful collaboration with AK, however it was interesting to note his reaction to questions about a follow up, to the majesty that was the 10th December 2007. The message received was that although not entirely ruling out any future events, Robert was keen to stress a reluctance to perform for performance sake, which I totally endorse and respect, as he said rightly, the magick has to be there. The impression seemed to be that Robert was digging in his heels for any extensive committment, although leaving open the door for 'special moments'. One wonders if he was perhaps reflecting some recent communications between himself, Jimmy, and JPJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly!, If the music did not matter and come from the heart, as it always has for Zeppelin, then it would be so easy to jump on the wrinkly gravy-train and chase their musical shadows around the stadia of the world. Robert and the guys always had more integrity about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, that's their choice but it sure would make a "special moment" for a lot of us folks here in the heartland! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ally Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 They won't do anything on a wim . A new album would be a must before any thoughts of touring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z88 Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 A tour is something that Plant & CO. are going to ponderer very well before deciding. And I agree when ally says: They won't do anything on a wim . A new album would be a must before any thoughts of touring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdh Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 The same old rock from the same old cocks. Yeah, they definetly need new material or play the songs off of Presence, In through the Out door and Coda that were never played live. Otherwise, its nothing but a greatest hits without any tits tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olipticle Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 im just hoping they do a few one offs around the world and follow it with an album. i think that is more in the cards for us at this point but you never know, Page might want a 1000 city tour before he cant play anymore. Which is understandable as well. And Right now is the best time if any to do a few come backs and show they still own the rock music Sector!
