Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant has finally agreed to join his bandmates for a reunion tour.
Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham had been rehearsing without the frontman following his claims that the music industry's endless paperwork had put him off the idea of a comeback.
However, a source told The Sun that Plant has finally caved in and has been welcomed back with open arms.
"The rest of the band had all but given up on Robert joining them, but they were determined to go ahead so had started to seriously explore other avenues. When Robert realised the band were serious about doing it without him, it made him think long and hard," the source said.
"He realised he couldn’t face the thought of not being involved. The band were over the moon when he told them the news. They are now forging ahead with the tour plans and they can’t wait to get on the road."
The tour, set for next summer, follows the massive success of their one-off reunion show at London’s O2 arena in December.

here also .......ITN video report http://uk.news.yahoo.com/itn/20080926/video/ven-plant-says-yes-to-led-zep-tour-cf04a8a.html
I´ve heard that Dave Grohl might be replacing Bonham.
Lead Zeppelin would be a nice name. We could have a joint tour, Zep without Plant, Q+PR and The Doors of the 21st Century (with the Creed's singer, not Ian Astbury - which might be busy with Lead Zeppeling anyway).
The fresh news: Robert Plant has confirmed his going on tour with the band!!! Jimmy Page as well is going. Great!!!!!!!
