Rumors

Led Zeppelin To "Officially" Play American Gig

After surviving Jimmy Page's finger scare and slogging through months of rumors about a full Led Zeppelin reunion tour or Robert Plant gyrating his way through the international summer festival circuit or Page and Plant playing an acoustic show at a Dress Barn in Paducah, the band has now been "confirmed" to play its first American gig in eons, at a venue that you might never have expected. This e-mail was sent to Bob Lefsetz, proprietor of The Lefsetz Letter, on Friday, and he happily shared it with his userbase:



Zeppelin just confirmed for Bonnaroo. They can't officially announce until after the London gig so pass it on! Also Metallica is confirmed on the bill too!

Of all the venues in all the nifty 50... Bonnaroo? Really? Guess it is shaping up to be the closet thing we have to a classic rock festival in this country, unless the band was going to start hitting state fairs. So get those camping supplies in order now, kids! Led Zeppelin takes America and its hippies! And so does Metallica, if you can still manage to care



hmmm.

Hope ZEP can make somewhere in the midwest!!!

Led Zeppelin might not be in talks to play the Bonnaroo Festival after all. Rumors recently circulated suggesting that both Zeppelin and Metallica were scheduled to play the annual festival in Manchester, Tennessee next June. The rumors started with anonymous letter to music industry commentator Bob Lefsetz.

A source at Metallica's management firm told Harddrive Radio that Metallica is not appearing at the upcoming Bonnaroo music festival. There's no official word on Led Zeppelin, but singer Robert Plant is already booking his own live dates with Alison Krauss for next summer.
