Rock giants to reform at O2 Arena
Hard rock giants Led Zeppelin look set to reform for a gig at London's O2 Arena this autumn.
Even though there has been no official announcement that the legendary rockers will perform again 27 years after they disbanded, advertisements appeared in the british press today (September 1) with top-price ticket and hotel packages on offer for £369.
A cheaper package from the Premier Entertainments company, including a night in a four-star hotel, is available for £269, reports This Is London.
Callers today were told: "It's just about to be officially announced."
Promoters subsequently told BBC 6 Music not to book tickets "just yet", but did not deny the story.
The reunion has been rumoured all year, and suspicions were further aroused when it was revealed the band would release a 2-CD 'Best Of' compilation called 'Mothership' on November 11.
It's thought that original drummer John Bonham's son Jason would replace him on drums. The band originally split following John's death aged 32 in 1980 after choking on his own vomit following an alcohol binge.
The three surviving members - John Paul Jones, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page - briefly reunited at the Live Aid concert in Philadelphia in 1985 and at Atlantic Records' 40th birthday celebrations in 1988.
