As the resident Led Zeppelin superfan here at WDR, it's only appropriate that I report on how Led Zeppelin is getting back together (and possibly touring).
Sure, it's not the original Led Zeppelin, but it's about as close as we're gonna get (John Bonham is still dead, and it doesn't look like his situation is improving). In fact, it looks like Bonham's son might be the drummer for this new line-up.
But more importantly*, the band looks really goofy. I mean look at the cover of Rolling Stone: Robert Plant looks goofy with a beard. Period. Jimmy Page doesn't even look like Jimmy Page (but has obviously come to some sort of grip about his age and stopped dying his hair). Ands something about John Paul Jones' grin in this picture makes me uneasy.But the fact remains: Led Zeppelin is back! And there's really only one thing to say: In the immortal words of Harry Rosenbaum: "Don't fuck it up."
*not actually important at all.

They're no Rolling Stones.
Dude, you're giving Rolling Stone way too much credit. And John Paul Jones looks like he'd be way happier eating his french fried potaters, errmh hmmh.
