MCM Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 A few months ago I saw a "rumor" on Twitter about some Zep news coming up... Blabbermouth (take it for what it's worth) now has up that the 2007 O2 show is going to be released on DVD.. Merry Christmas Jimmy, maybe this is what he's been doing since '07.

Unobtrusive Companion Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 http://static.nme.com/images/gallery/ledzep5.jpg This was posted on the official Led Zep Facebook page yesterday, with no explanation. As you say, many think it relates to the 5th anniversary of the O2 gig, and they'll release it, but other theories include a tour (5 years since their last live performance) or even a Led Zeppelin V studio album. Time will tell, sounds promising though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unobtrusive Companion Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 As expected, this was posted earlier today: http://allfacebook.com/files/2012/09/LedZeppelinIII.jpg Within the last 30 minutes, this was posted: http://youtu.be/jXIU4nW-ZUc Looks like live stuff, either dates or a DVD. Probably the latter though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metaldad Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Someone please tell the people in charge of this release that it's Not 1975 anymore. No "Magic" or "Spellbinding" effect's with Zep works anymore so just release the f-n info and get on with it. Peter Grant is turning over in his grave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driventotheedge Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 My guess: The O2 show gets released officially. I have heard nothing that makes me think Robert is willing to do a full blown Zep tour. If anyone has any contrary info PLEASE post a link.

Unless Plant was purposely blowing smoke to make people think otherwise and then have it really surprise people later. But I really doubt that's the case lol.

ColdFireYYZ Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) The hype seems a bit overblown for a DVD release. Is there really such a big demand for it? I would think that for something like this they'd just announce it. Edited September 10, 2012 by ColdFireYYZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drbirdsong Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I heard it is the O2 show as well and that there is something in the offing for December or early next year. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the latter though. If it's a DVD, I frankly have no interest in it. If they release a CD of the O2 show, I'd have to hear some of it first. Live albums of bands past their prime can be disappointing. I bought Dio Sabbath's Live at Radio City Music Hall and Neon Nights. I never listen to either these days.

Unobtrusive Companion Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) The 2 picture was posted today, along with an excerpt of Good Times Bad Times live. Got to be the O2 gig, surely. Edited September 11, 2012 by Unobtrusive Companion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbirdsong Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Robert Plant had no interest, but when he finally listened he pronounced it the best show since 1975. It could be good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchetaxe&saw Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Ah, it's getting a cinema release first. Cool! From Cineworld. Release date: 17 October 2007(love the typo!!!!) Running time: 124 mins Director: Dick Carruthers Starring: Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, Jason Bonham At last - a chance to enjoy the most over-subscribed gig ever in glorious high definition and surround sound! It was the show fans thought they'd never see. Arguably the greatest rock band of all time, Led Zeppelin called it a day after the tragic death of their drummer, John Bonham, back in 1980. Nothing could persuade them to get back together again until 2007. As a tribute to Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun, vocalist Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones reunited for a one-off show at London's O2 arena on December 10. They were joined by Bonham's son, Jason - himself a renowned drummer. More than 20 million people applied for just 18,000 tickets, setting a world record. And until now, only those 18,000 experienced this gig of a lifetime, featuring 16 classic songs. Directed by long-time Led Zep collaborator Dick Carruthers, 'Celebration Day' captures every moment of the incredible event in stunning HD.

The Cat 3 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 OK, so not exactly what I was hoping for, but still exciting. I can't wait to see this, then the BluRay/DVD release and hopefully an CD version as well. Hmm, think I'll start me day with a little Led Zeppelin...
