Zeppelin To Play Bonnaroo 

Proving that it's always a good thing to read a press release in its entirety, some news organizations (e.g. World Entertainment News Network) got a little bit overeager and reported the wrong Zeppelin as playing at this year's Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival. Rather, it's Lez Zeppelin, a four-woman Led Zep tribute band, that will be making their way to Tennessee and not the fabled band that famously reunited at London's O2 Arena last December. There will be a Led Zeppelin presence at the festival as Robert Plant will be appearing with Alison Krause. Maybe for kicks, he'll catch the Lez Zep and feel inspired enough to sit in - it's not like he doesn't know the words.

In addition to Pearl Jam, My Morning Jacket, Kanye West and Jack Johnson, Metallica will be headlining the event. Remember two months ago when Metallica denied they were playing Bonnaroo? It's one thing to harass your own fans cause you have an ideological aversion to free downloading, but why spread disinformation about your own concert appearances.
