Led Zeppelin To Play November 26th?

According to MetalSucks, LED ZEPPELIN has a hold for a possible reunion show on November 26 at the O2 Arena in London. For those who aren't familiar with the way booking works, an artist's agent will generally place a "hold" on a venue when considering doing a show there; this prevents the venue from booking any other artists on that date, but the venue does not yet have to pay a deposit (typically 50 percent) to the artist because no formal offer has been made and the show is not officially confirmed. So while this latest bit of news certainly doesn't confirm that the show is happening, it absolutely lends credibility to the notion that this show is being seriously discussed. There is no word on whether any other venues in London are being held by LED ZEPPELIN on that date.

LED ZEPPELIN reformed for Live Aid in 1985 but its members were apparently so disgusted with their own performance — guitarist Jimmy Page famously blaming stand-in drummer Phil Collins — that they refused to allow it to be included in the concert DVD.

Page and singer Robert Plant have played together occasionally since then.

You may know the 02 Arena as the Millenium Dome. The biggest waste of British money in history. Sorry to post twice, just thought that more people would know the venue if I chucked that in.
