I don't care who paid what for the "one off" gig. And neither should you to tell you the truth. My wanting to see led zeppelin is simply narrowed to wanting to see a great band. I want to see them play, want to hear songs that they haven't done before, but maybe can now do, and Plant can be just as "comely" as that, maybe doing half the show acoustic.....god, lead singers are so neurotic, just want to smack the guy around!!! Most of us fans do not want to hear stairway, rock n roll....maybe some deep cuts, long acoustic sets, some new ideas, JPJ and Jimmy Page can still write music you know... alas, those of you who spent the cash ought to be happy you got to see them at the O2. But seriously, to complain if they went on tour so the rest of us could see them is a bit petty and selfish, and Plant is being selfish. That's what went wrong in this industry and with people in the first place....Led Zep gave 3-4 hours a night when they played out, they ruled and conquered, and still are selling so many CD's and records because they were the genuine deal.....no, it wouldn't be the same as 30 years ago, but no one is looking for that....just want to see a real band....not some collection of losers the record industry put together or supports because they fit their bottom line or what they think is trendy.... Led Zeppelin, in their later years or not, it's just about the music...and the pulse is still there... wish Plant would reconsider....if not a tour, then how about a few dates here and there...
