According to RollingStone.com, LED ZEPPELIN's November 26 reunion concert has been pushed back to December 10 because guitarist Jimmy Page fractured his finger. The injury, which he sustained this past weekend, will make him unable to play guitar for the next three weeks. "I am disappointed that we are forced to postpone the concert by two weeks," Page said in a statement. "However, LED ZEPPELIN have always set very high standards for ourselves, and we feel that this postponement will enable my injury to properly heal, and permit us to perform at the level that both the band and our fans have always been accustomed to." Tickets bought for the original show will be honored on the new date, and refunds will also be available.

The show, a memorial for late Atlantic Records co-founder Ahmet Ertegun, will also feature performances by Pete Townshend, Bill Wyman, and FOREIGNER.

What a jerk. He should have been taking extra special care of his fingers if he knew he was going to play. What a disappointment. At least it's not completely canceled.

3. whats two more weeks.... writes:

.....Vicarious Intent, pipe down...doesn't even say how the injury was sustained....(rough sex maybe?...sure , why not). Anyway.....most people goin' to show can re-arrange schedule w/ no worries. Does anyone know if it will be transmitted as a Pay -per-View event? Should be an obvious. First song of the set, in my opinion....."Rock and Roll"....and last encore..."Nobody's Fault but Mine"....my fave song of theirs.....has all the LZ elements combined and as heavy as it gets.
I'd kill (a few dozen Emo Screamo punks) to be able to see this show.
