Its times like this I'm glad Im a Brit. Led Zeppelin the father of Heavy Rock/Metal will be playing a one off gig as a Tribute to Ahmet Ertegun the founder of Atlantic Records.
The one off concert will be on the 26th November 2007 and yes Jason Bonham is on board.
Tickets priced at £125.00 thats $250.00
Profits from this amazing show will go to the Ahmet Ertegun Education Fund which provides students with annual scholarships to universities in the UK, USA and Turkey. In addition, a music scholarship open to all will be established at Ravensbourne College in the UK.
The incomparable Led Zeppelin will headline the tribute to the man who founded Atlantic Records in 1947. Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones will be joined by Jason Bonham, the son of their late drummer John Bonham.
In addition, Pete Townshend, Bill Wyman and the Rhythm Kings, Foreigner and Paolo Nutini, all touched by Ertegun’s guiding hand over the years, will play on the night. Paolo was the final British artist that Ahmet mentored.
Due to the anticipated overwhelming demand for this concert, tickets will be available by ballot only. All tickets are priced at £125.

You gotta know...Led Zep is where it all started...Black Sabbath made the leap to the darker side, but Zep started it all...$250 is a steep price, but noone under 35 years old will ever be able to say they saw them if they don't get a ticket to this show.

The price is steep, I'd like to see them , atleast once. I would probably pay that if they came to the U.S.

hmm......The Rolling Stones still had it at this age, but I doubt Zep, especially Plant.
Comment #8 by stonedrockgod on September 16, 2007 at 00:23am
yea, but the stones suck balls and everyone knows their too old to rock (if they did before)... plant is burnt out tho, but he was burnt out when he quit the zep, everyone knows that and why.. give him a break, he helped revolutionize rock..
