Led Zeppelin Tour - Who Should Replace Robert Plant?

News that Led Zeppelin are determined to tour with an as-yet-unnamed replacement singer for Robert Plant has provoked a torrent of angry comments on NME.COM. A number of potential candidates have been mooted, ...

[mats]

NOBODY!!!!

[Dave Guitar]

I think David Coverdale could easily replace Robert "Percy" Plant on the vocal slot. Robert Plant has got his cosy career in middle of the Road doing country fusion with Alison Krauss

[DrunkBobDylan]

David Coverdale... isn't he just Brian Adams with long hair? ha ha ya we really need DC to fk up this one...

Need I say more? What bout me...Drunk Bob Dylan? I can sing and talk at the same time! ha ha ... here they are ladies and gentlemen... won't you give a nice warm welcome for ..... Led Dylan!!!

"...and the answer my friend... is blowing in the wind.... she's buying a Stairway to Heaven."

[John Paul-Philosopher]

Robert Plant = Ebineezer Scrooge. PERIOD!

[Jammy Pige]

Yep...

JP: "Hey, Percey... what do you say we fire up the old band and give back to the fans what they gave to us... you know, we'll give them an assk'n world tour and maybe even go into the studio for one last hurrah and make magic like we used to and bring back a song of hope for another generation..."???

RP: "Ah Bahumbug... I've got better things to do... Alison and I are going to go back into the studio... "

JP: "Are you out of your fn mind"???

RP: "... the great wind spirit has chosen me for my gift of clairvoyance and and I must follow the path that calls me... where ever it may lead me"

JP: "hmm, yep, he's gone alright !!!!"

JP: "Hey Jonesy, I wonder if we should go ahead without Plant and get somebody else and take this thing on the road and try to give something back to the fans who want to see us anyway" "what do you think Jonesy??""

JPJ: "Oh hell ya, I would love to do that... and so would Jason Bonham, but we still have to deal with all these gayass polka dot blouse Plant freaks that keep Fng everything up for the rest of the zep fans..."

JP: "ya, yur right... we'd never be able to tour in peace without a bunch of freaks trying to sue and protest against every concert and give us bad press every step of the way... it's not even worth it!!!"

Meanwhile... all of the rest of the fans.... the real fans.... are SOL because of an egomaniacal singer who won't give his blessing on a tour without him and an ignorant few wannabes who think Led Zeppelin is some dude with long, blonde, frizzy hair...

What a waste of love, life, music...and (((TIME))) for which we have so little left!!! Many, many fans want this thing to happen and we don't care about Plant not being there... we find it disappointing, but it's not our number one priority and we are really in it to see Jimmy and Jones and it's not fair. If it comes down to it all the people who don't want to see it don't have to see it and the should just shut the fk up and mind there own business because they don't have to go but they should not expect everybody else to feel the same way. Really, just go see Krauss and Plant and stop trying to screw things up for the rest of us who want it to happen by crying and whinning about how it's not Led Zeppelin without Plant...fk that sht who cares???

BRING ON JIMMY PAGE, JONES AND THE NEW BAND....

BRING ON BONHAM!!!

[DrunkBobDylan]

What 'bout me, I can sing and talk at the same time. I bet you all think I'm all washed up aye? Well not hardly. I'm Bob Dylan and I've written more songs than anybody. Ever! Just you wait and see. Led Dylan... it could happen.

[Jammy Pige]

Bob Dylan is amazing... nuff said.

I miss music like that... it's like I've grown all hollow and empty inside and my exterior has turned to eggshell and the cracks are starting to connect...

I need a fresh injection of music from the 70s... it's hard to explain, but only music like that can move me like that and bring my spirit to life again...

If Jimmy Hendrix was the god of guitar... then Stevie Ray Vaughan was the "second coming." We need another resurrection... a guitar hero to take us away from all this bs... until then my own guitar hangs on the wall.

Please JP if you read this...

We would love to see you in concert no matter who sings for you and there need not be any hard feelings toward Robert Plant... everybody must follow the path that calls them, but there can be no doubt that your path leads to this... so grab your axe and wind on down the road like you were meant to and play the music you were meant to play and go out in a blaze of glory!

BRING ON "THE MIGHTY ZEP" or "BONHAM" or whatever name you want to give the new band. Just do it..

Hey, good to hear it ... I need all the help I can get.

Don't know what happened... I guess they all got disappointed again and can't say I blame them. I guess they'll come back around if/when things heat up again and we get some more news.

Whoops.... I think I see a Plant hopper now... time to get out the big guns ... it's just like that stupid gopher that keeps popping his head up... just bash him down, but he keeps coming back.

Stupid Plant hoppers...
