An Open Letter:I can understand Page wanting to tour with the new singer. He, like myself is growing impatient with Plant's "Journey" to find his musical roots. We'll Robert, your ten solo albums and various collaborations with artists should be complete by now. We have supported your tours for since 1982. Robert, get over yourself, none of your solo or collaborations could match the musical genius of Zeppelin, without Jones, Bonham and Page you would not have made ten albums after 1980. ZEP fans have supported and helped you with Charitable Endeavors: The Love Concert at the Beacon in 2006.You talked about giving back and unselfishness. How about giving something back to your fans? How about practicing what you preach? I did not support the Allison Krause tour, your Butchering of Black Dog. Why don't you tour and play No Zeppelin Songs if you really feel this way. The reason why people go to see is for the Zeppelin Songs dude! Jimmy Page discovered and saw the potentiaI in you, why do you blame him for it now? I will not go to your solo shows anymore. Bring on Page, Jones, Bonham and Kennedy. I'll spend a weeks paycheck on tickets for that.I was fortunate enough back in 1980 to get tickets for the Buffalo, NY show, then tragedy struck with Bonzo. Please tour for the people who were too young go to concerts at that time and couldn't enjoy them. This Zeppelin fan wants to enjoy the Band for the first time. How about it Robert?
