Led Zeppelin reunion: Jimmy Page hints at further dates

Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page has hinted that he would be up for more reunion shows.

The band are set to perform a one-off reunion at the 02 Arena in London on December 10.

Page said: “At the moment, I’m told we’re doing one gig. That’s a bit unfortunate for all the people that would have liked to have seen us, but I can understand why some of the other members don’t want to be touring.”

Page also spoke out about the demand for tickets, saying: “I knew there would be a demand for tickets but I hadn’t expected that sort of overwhelming demand. It’s wonderful that people hold Zeppelin in that sort of regard.”

Speaking about getting together for the first time in years, the guitarist said: “We had the first rehearsal in May or June just to get together and see how we got on and whether it would be a goer, and straight away it was boom!”

He told The Mirror: “It’s amazing, daunting, harrowing, beautiful - and it’s a one-night stand. And I’ve learned that nothing is impossible.”
