Here Today... Gone To Hell!

NMe.com reports that Slash, who is good friends with Jimmy Page, has revealed that a LED ZEPPELIN tour is unlikely to occur in the near future.

Speaking to the Daily Star's Playlist, the VELVET REVOLVER guitarist explained that rumors that his own band might be supporting the rock legends on a forthcoming tour had been exaggerated.

"I'm good friends with Jimmy Page so I can tell you once and for all the tour doesn't look like happening any time soon. But who knows, one day?" he said.

"There were rumors VELVET REVOLVER had been asked to support ZEP on a reunion tour," he added. "But those reports were taken out of context."

Speaking of the reunion show LED ZEPPELIN played last December at London's O2 Arena, Slash said: "I heard like literally everybody was there except me. We were in Australia so I missed the gig. I was pretty upset."

The Australia tour was canceled wasn't it? Or did it go ahead secretly?  ???

Maybe he was in Austria, not Australia, or maybe he was doing something for the new Slash Signature guitars there....

The "we were in" makes it sound like he means the band he's in, VR.

Maybe he just looked at his December 2007 itinerary and figured he had been there without checking with Matt first.....  ;)

Maybe he meant he and Perla when he said that.

wouldn't make any sense if he says "we" and meant perla when he hadn't mentioned anything about her before but he talked about VR, so i'm sure he meant VR when he said we : ok:

weird. the tour was cancelled but they went there anyway and he was upset?
maybe they couldn't cancel the flight and the hotel.

exactly! but anyway, who the hell cares? i dont understand the unecessary pot shots at the former players, i really dont...and if it was a joke, not funny at all.....

It's actually very funny! I honestly don't know how anyone can believe a word that comes out of his mouth when he doesn't even know where he was just a few months ago.

well to be fair, if my memory serves me right  I saw an article in which  slash and duff was in Australia a few months ago.

Nothing really new.


Hell, I don't remember were I was last night ... just sayin'

Kind of ironic, isn't it?

Dean says"If everyone shows up and does this thing, I think it's going to be really amazing." good luck with that happneing :hihi:

I'll say. Maybe they could both be opening acts. That would be interesting.

The problem with the scenario is that IF Zeppelin does tour, it will probably be a world tour, and STP are not a worldly band. Though, possibly, they could get the US leg.

Led Zepp with AC/DC double bill, more my cup of tea.

sabbath and zep would be the biggest tour ever, the creators of metal touring the world :o

I just said AC/DC cause they have new album coming out.

since people's fantasies are getting wild,

What about rolling stones and Led Zeppelin?
and does it have anything to do with this section?  :P

One day festival featuring:

Guns N Roses
AC/DC
The Rolling Stones
Led Zeppelin

I think most agree all 4 of those bands would be in 98% of peoples' top 10 ever.

i thought about lz and rs but sabbath fits better  :)

and no it doesn't have anything to do with this section but the latest talk in this thread was one of the deleo brothers talking about reuniting to possibly open for lz, and that deleo brother don't have much to do with vr nor this section :P

That line-up doesn't include Slash.  :rofl:

what's the funny part? i wanna laugh too ;)

actually smoking, i don't think i'd say more then GNR of those are in my top 10 :o
