Good idea: Led Zeppelin reuniting for a one off benefit concert a year ago
Bad idea: The non singing members of Led Zeppelin deciding to tour without Robert Plant
Today Billboard online reports that the remaining members of Led Zeppelin (Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham) want to tour and record without Robert Plant and they are already auditioning lead singers.
In spite of the successful aforementioned benefit show, Robert Plant has continually stated that he has no real desire to turn that show into a prolonged tour.
My feelings: Your not fooling anyone. Unless he's dead, Led Zeppelin should not tour or record with a different lead singer. It would be the same as if Plant, Jones and Bonham tried to tourand record without Jimmy Page.
It just WONT be Led Zeppelin.
So if you do, do this, Don't call it Led Zeppelin. I might be interested in hearing a new band that has Page, Jones, Bonham and someone else on lead vocals. But call it Led Zeppelin and I will just turn off and say your not fooling anyone.
