Led Zeppelin Tour On Again, According to John Paul Jones

This is almost exhausting.

But this time, the news comes straight from the horse’s mouth.
Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones has confirmed the possibility, at least, of a Led Zeppelin reunion tour sometime next year. He also confirmed the band has been rehearsing with “odd” singers in case lead singer Robert Plant follows through with his apparent plans to bypass any reunion effort.
The comments came during a question and answer session at the Mansons Guitar Show this past weekend inside the UK’s Riverside Leisure Centre in Exeter. Specifically, Jones was asked about the possibility of another Led Zeppelin show, and he gave the following answer:
“As you probably know, Jimmy [Page], Jason [Bonham] and I are actually rehearsing and we've had the odd singer come in and have a bash. And as soon as we know – which we don't – we will let you know,” Jones said. “But, we really hope that something is going to happen soon because we really want to do it and we're having a lot of fun, actually, just rehearsing. Jason is actually tremendous ... he's really taking chances. He is a very brave man … every other drummer in the world was watching him thinking [at the reunion show] that could have been me. He’s creative and really fun.”
Jones continued, “We really want to do something and Robert [Plant] doesn't want to do this sort of thing, at least for the moment. I don't really know what his plans are. He is touring with Allison [Krauss] as you know. He really doesn't want to make loud music anymore, as we do. I mean, I love acoustic music, but it doesn't stop me from turning something up. And what we've done so far sounds absolutely fantastic. When it does come, it will come, and you'll know about it.”
Speculation of a possible Led Zeppelin reunion tour has run amok since the band’s one-off reunion show at London’s O2 Arena this past December. The show drew rave reviews, and may even show up in DVD format, according to Jones.
Plant, however, literally killed the notion of a full-blown reunion when he issued an “official statement” on his website that read, in part, that he “has no intention whatsoever of touring with anyone for at least the next two years … I wish Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham nothing but success with any future projects.”
Plant just wrapped up a busy touring schedule with bluegrass legend Allison Krauss in support of the critically acclaimed Raising Sand. Recently, various reports – including Gibson.com – have put the vacant Zeppelin lead singer role in the hands of Myles R. Kennedy, the lead singer of Alter Bridge, although no official word has been released from the Zeppelin camp.

Será que o Plant está certo em não deixar este projeto de lado para voltar com o Zeppelin? Que tal uma discusão sobre isso? Esse disco ficou na posição 24 dos 50 melhores de 2007., pela Rolling Stone Magazine e já faturou um Disco de Platina!!!!
