Re: Once again...Plant says no...



Eddie, I find your message offensive not only to me but to the others on this list who've pointed out the gross inconsistencies in Plant's statements. I didn't quote him from 1989 but from mid-September 2008 when he told Q magazine he had nothing against more Zeppelin reunions it was just the paperwork that was a problem, and then two weeks later posting an announcement on his web site telling the world he has no intention of working with Led Zeppelin, followed by this statement three months later that he's in a different place right now.

Look, just as you view me and some others on the list as constant Plant bashers who just won't let it go, I view you as a constant Plant apologist who just won't see Plant for the con he really is. If you really find us on FBO to be as distasteful as you claim, why not go join the bunch of menopausal ex-groupies groaning over Plant on manicnirvana.com and leave us in peace.

I must be reading different articles to everyone else.

Plant to me has always been very clear to me.  Maybe I'm just smarter
than everyone else or maybe I'm just as big a ass as Plant is (in the eyes
of most people on this list it seems.)

He said it was a one off he said he wasn't against more shows but only i
f it was for something special (sorry fans have to realize you aren't that special. Don't like it go cry to your mommy) and he said doesn't want to
be a rock star anymore.

Sounds clear to me always have.

Of course I'm not drudging up what he might have said in oh uh 1989 or what
ever. Things move on but apparently not on this list.

Agree on both counts. Still, it would be easier to let him have his
peace if he'd do us the same courtesy. :-)

This is what comes of him riding the Led Zeppelin publicity wave
during 2008 leaving it nebulous for so long and as Steve points
out having a history of prevaricating.

The three J's coming out with something is probably the only thing
that will stop the press asking Plant the question though. Heck
maybe not even then.

Nice to know Page has as much class as ever remaining Plant's
supportive friend to the end. I need to get me a "WWJD" bracelet...

To dare to will to remain silent is magic...

I'm far more interested in what JP and JPJ have up their
sleeve.
I'm all for letting him have his peace but as for the word
bit--the
credibility--that's shot.
