Tombstone Mountain Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 I love Zep ... but Don't Do It! there's a window for when doing something makes sense, and once that window closes, it's pretty awkward to try and pry it open again.they're alive...that means the windows open. It won't be what we've had before...that should excite the hell out of everyone. Plant and Krause kicked major ass (see Grammy)...imagine what they could do if they put their hearts in it. it's not about putting their hearts in it or not - if plant can't sing live, he can't sing live - not much can be done about that.He can sing live. Maybe not to your liking, but he's still cranking out good stuff. I hope they make another record. They could call it "Goober, your just full of hot air" ok, we'll see...what about NEW songs Goob? Songs that don't try to repeat the past but go a step further...does that pique your interest at all? Rush were the very, very, VERY rare exception of a band that made an excellent album 38 years after their debut. That's pretty much unheard of. Do you really expect that Zeppelin, 44 years after their debut, have a chance in a thousand of making an album that comes anywhere close to approaching their legacy? Again, to me it's do you want the real thing, or are you willing to accept whatever dregs they have left. If you don't mind the dregs, go see them live even if Plant is painfully croaking out the lyrics just so you can say you saw them, or buy the album (which almost definitely won't happen) that would almost definitely be a shadow of their former glory and listen to it 500 times if it makes you happy. I appreciate where you're coming from, but the sad truth is that you missed it. Almost all of us did. It's not 1969-1979, it's 2013. That ship has sailed. Elvis has left the building.It's not that I want to SEE them so much as I want to HEAR new stuff. You keep saying that Plant is done as a singer, have you listened to Raising Sand? I'm not the only one singing its praises, this is from the wikipedia entry on it: Critics praised Krauss and Plant's vocal harmonization, with one critic saying that the "key to the magic is the delicious harmony vocals of the unlikely duo."[14] Various music critics described Alison Krauss's vocals as being "spellbinding", "honey-sweet", "weepy", "saccharine", and "haunting".[12][14][15] On the other hand, Robert Plant's sometimes "wailing" vocals were described as "orgasmic", and "slithering", in regard to his lead roles.[10][15]"Gone, Gone, Gone (Done Moved On)" was released as a single and won the Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals at the 50th Grammy Awards. The song "Killing the Blues" was #51 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best Songs of 2007.[16] here is the Wiki entry for his last solo album Band of Joy:Reaction to the album has been positive. Metacritic, by incorporating a number of respected critical reviews, gives the album an aggregate score of 80 out of 100,[7] a "generally favorable review" by the site. Rolling Stone, in particular, gave the album three and a half stars and ranked it #8 on its list of the 30 Best Albums of 2010.[8] Q Magazine in its January 2011 edition ranked Band of Joy as the second best album of 2010, stating that, "[f]ree from having to imitate his 20-year-old self in Zeppelin, the sexagenarian sings to his strengths here, with Miller and Griffin his not-so secret weapons on an album that pinwheels between gentlemanly country-blues (Cindy, I'll Marry You Some Day), spooky lo-fi (Silver Rider) and charming '60s pop (You Can't Buy My Love)." [9] Now if you're expecting him to sound dead on like the guy from the 70's, well we're not gonna get that...and I'm glad. Gimme Plant the way he sounds now...it will be something special...as his last two efforts have been. mehComing from a guy who thinks listening to Headlong Flight is a chore...whatever bro fwiw, i love headlong flight. i think you might be referring to my initial impression of the song, but that changed long ago. read anything i've written about the album since the full album came out. anyway, if the thought of a new led zeppelin album excites you (even though that's quite a long jump from robert plant hinting at merely being open to a reunion to them making an album), that's cool, and i don't want to take away your excitement, it just doesn't excite me personally and i think they're way past their expiration date. i do love led zeppelin, however...I guess im confused over the whole voice thing...the man can still sing as proven by his most recent work.

The Cat 3 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I personally thought that Robert Plant sounded fine on "Celebration Day" and on the boots from the O2 gig from 2007. I think his voice would handle a hand full of dates (with days off in between)...maybe not a 30-50 city tour though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sounded alright, sometimes better than others, however that was a full 6 years ago, 7 by the time they would get this (speculative) tour together. That's a LONG time for an aging voice.

ILSnwdog Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) So Robert can still sing. Big deal. How can anyone think that Zeppelin could write and produce relavent music at this point in their lives is beyond me. Like I said earlier, Page will be 70 next year. My Dad is a just a little older, and everyone celebrates when the man has a significant bowel movement. Just like Goob said...Zeppelin is way past their experation date.

cfmoran13 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 As cool as this would be for nostalgia purposes, I think this ship has sailed. The "reunion" should've happened instead of Page & Plant. At least I can say I've seen both Page (Outrider tour) and Plant (Manic Nirvana tour) live.

Tombstone Mountain Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 Why do you all think Plant wants a reunion??? He didn't say he wants to, he's just saying he's open to it.. The reporter asked him why he doesn't want a reunion and Plant's basically saying "it's not me" .. That's it"I'm not the bad guy . . . You need to see the Capricorns – I've got nothing to do in 2014." Robert opened the door. Says he's free next year. That's what makes it news. I'd love love to see this, finances permitting. I saw Plant & Page in 94. I was suitably face melt blown away. Ended up seeing back to back Plant & Strange Sensation nights at the Tower in Philadelphia in 05 I think it was. Fantastic. They sounded great at the O2 in 07. They brought it. I've never seen Zeppelin, man, and if they come so will I. I have no reason to believe they wouldn't bring it in 14. Led Zep has been a top 3 band for me for the last forever. I don't think Robert would open the door like this if he thought he sounded like shit or his heart wouldn't be in it. He does have integrity, I think.thanks for being an optimist...I agree. He's gonna deliver...even at his age. You know its gonna happen, its all in the media playbook.

Tombstone Mountain Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Bonham now enters the conversation with--"what do you think?" —TM Led Zeppelin drummer Jason Bonham responds to Robert Plant's reunion tease Sticksman says he doesn't know how to take Plants comments that he has 'nothing to do in 2014'More Led Zeppelin news, reviews, videos and tour datesBuy Led Zeppelin music from AmazonTweet230Led Zeppelin news RSS Feedhttp://static.nme.com/images/gallery/2012JasonBonhamPA-14831526191112.jpgPhoto: PALed Zeppelin Jason Bonham has revealed that he doesn't know how to take Robert Plant's suggestion that he's open to a band reunion next year. http://static.nme.com/images/article/LedZeppelin03PARed130912.jpgJason Bonham, son of the band's legendary late sticksman John wrote on his Facebook page (via Stereogum): "I just watched Robert's interview, where he says he's free in 2014!!!!!! Not sure how to read it? What do you think? JB" Last week, Plant said he was waiting on his bandmates Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones in order to kick off the reunion, blaming their silence on the fact that they are Capricorns. "They don't say a word," he said. "They're quite contained in their own worlds and they leave it to me. I'm not the bad guy... You need to see the Capricorns – I've got nothing to do in 2014." Led Zeppelin's last proper show was at London's O2 Arena in December 2007, where they were joined by Jason Bonham on drums. However, a full tour following the one-off gig was nixed by Plant. Led Zeppelin are currently in talks to stream their back catalogue online. The band are looking at giving at various music services including Spotify, Rdio and Rhapsody the right to put their music online. A deal would be a rare digital leap forward for Zeppelin, who waited until 2007 before they made their albums available through iTunes. Meanwhile, Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page is working on remastering a number of the band's albums. Page, who oversaw the DVD release of Celebration Day, the concert film of Led Zeppelin's O2 Arena gig, revealed that he is working on extra material for each album the band recorded and that they will see the light of day in a series of boxset releases, starting this year.

Jason Bonham responded to what Plant had to say on his FACEBOOK page and news agencies picked it up. Hardly a PR machine being cranked. You make it sound like some vast pre-meditated conspiracy to plant (pun intended) the seed of a reunion in the collective sub-conscious so then they can later announce it officially. But why? To increase ticket sales? They'd have to play an arena every single day for the next 5 years before there'd be an empty seat no matter how they announce it. Seriously though, if you want to get excited about some seemingly off the cuff remarks, feel free. It just seems very speculative and sketchy at best to me. Not trying to be negative, just realistic.

Tombstone Mountain Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Wow, even vague than Robert Plant's comments... which means people will probably read even MORE into it! :PI read that as "I'm in"...they're throwing chum in the in the water for a reason Perhaps. To assume anything at this point, however, would be letting hope and imagination run away with you. At least IMHO... Goobs, you're so negative! How did such a positive guy get to be so negative? He's always been positively negative. I try not to read too many of his posts for fear of losing my will to live. Oops, did I forget to :poke:? Some of your posts should come with the warning 'Reading may cause despair and exasperation.' :P :poke: I'm just extremely honest and effusive. When I love something, you really know it. When I hate something, you really know it. When I have an opinion, it's pretty blatant. No guesswork involved! :PWe know Goobs, we know :D-13: Still, these guys know how to crank the PR machine...this has all the makings of something big. Can you stop thinking big Goobs? I don't know.

Not trying to be negative, just realistic."it's not about putting their hearts in it or not - if plant can't sing live, he can't sing live - not much can be done about that." —Rushgoober Not trying to be negative—just realistic. Plant can still sing dude—you have been VVVVERRRRRYYYYYY negative nancy about him being able to sing anything. Honest and effusive bubba! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
