A Led Zeppelin U.S. tour would no doubt be one of the biggest ticket sellers in 2008. Given the way Van Halen tickets sold this year, a Zeppelin reunion tour would sell like golden hot cakes. Of course, Zeppelin reunion tours are often rumor fodder. But, there is an inkling of hope for this one to be real.
The remaining Led Zeppelin band mates are reforming for the Ahmet Ertegun tribute show in London on December 10th. Will the reunion spark a nostalgia for laughter? Surely the lure of big bucks hauled in by Van Halen and the Police this year may have raised some eyebrows in the Zeppelin camp. A Zeppelin reunion would arguably have significantly more demand than any of the other recent reunion tours. And, at least one other aging rocker is hyped about the possibility.
Ian Asturbury of the Cult reportedly dropped a big hint to fans at a Cincinnati show that his band would be opening for Zeppelin on a U.S. tour in 2008. Wishful thinking? At this point Zeppelin spokespeople say no plans are in place. Of course, for awhile Hillary Clinton said she had no plans in place to run for President. We all know how that turned out. Of course, a Zeppelin reunion would likely be more well received and loads more fun.
