Re: Led Zeppelin reunion: band will play new song live

["Cserve Mail" <michaeljmoretti@xxxxxx>]

Playing over 2 hours for a one-off show is a whole lot easier than playing 
over two hours night after night with a grueling tour schedule.  I'm not 
concerned one bit about them being able to play for over two hours at the 
O2.  I only hope that the stars are in alignment and that this show goes off 
smoothly without the "shambolic" elements of Live Aid and Atlantic 40th. 
What will be important is that the band maintain the "equilibrium" and 
"dignity" that Robert Plant has talked about over the years if there is any 
hope at all of this leading to something more than a one-off gig.  Looking 
back on both of those events, it's not surprising that Plant has been so 
reluctant to do anything like this.  After watching the Jimmy Page BBC 
interview from the other day, I don't think there has ever been a better 
time for this to happen.  It was great to see him so collected and in 
control of that interview.  Other than the broken finger, everything seems 
to be right on track and they appear to be fully in control.  Rather than an 
oldies reunion tour, I'm still holding out hope for new material from these 
gentleman.  It would have to be really really great to be called Led 
Zeppelin.  If this show on the 10th goes really, really well, then I believe 
anything is possible.  Soak this up and enjoy it FBO, because it's been a 
long time...

show since he was touring with Page in 1998 unless I'm way off about
the average Priory of Brion set.  None of the Strange Sensation shows
(from April 2001 or so onward) have even touched 100 minutes have
they?  I think most were about 80-90 minutes.  I kind of wonder about
both Jimmy and Robert's stamina (I await the obvious jokes...).
Although it's quite possible that the pure adrenaline of the event
will sustain them for over two hours.
