"The surviving members of legendary rock group Led Zeppelin are to reform for a star-studded tribute concert in London.
Singer Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones will play at the show to remember the late Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun.
The one-off concert, the trio's first performance for 19 years, will take place at the O2 arena on 26 November.
Tickets will cost £125 and be allocated by ballot. Pete Townshend, Bill Wyman and Paolo Nutini will also perform.
Ertegun, who signed Led Zeppelin in 1968, died last year.
The place of Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, who died in 1980, will be taken by his son Jason. "

I would give my left nut to be at this, even though they are ancient and would be no where as good as they were many years ago it would still be a story to tell, you know it will be on DvD within months.

If it was a perfect world, I should be there.
In the near perfect world, I'll download it somewhere.

This could either be really cool or a massive disappointment, because imo Zep are overrated. Maybe if all their majour singles weren't rip offs of other blues and folk artists a decade earlier I might have more nostalgic respect for them.

Your the first person I've ever heard that had that to say about Zeppelin.
I'm serious. Not that your opinion doesn't count but so far the first Zep hater to say they were "overrated"

I don't hate them; I like them, and classic rock is a big influence on my music tastes I just think there's a lot of other bands out there that deserve more respect.

Apparently since yesterday afternoon, over 20 million people have tried to access the website where they can register for tickets - needless to say the site isn't currently working.
