Well, the news was true about Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and Jason Bonham. They were trying to get a new band together. Guess what. They didn't find a singer they liked. What a shocker. Their manager came out saying they couldn't find a singer that fits with the band.
When this whole ordeal started out, there was always that question of who could take over for Robert. My guess was that they could try a different style. It turned out that they couldn't think of anybody. They tried but it was not to be. Be happy Zeppelin fans: a Robert-less Led Zeppelin will not exist.
Sadly, this is most likely it for Led Zeppelin. I've said it once and I'll say it again: Robert Plant does not want to be part of Led Zeppelin. He has a successful solo career and the freedom to do whatever he wants. Another issue will be time. They are now all in their 60s. Eventually they will not be able to tour anymore physically. On the bright side, they will not be the Rolling Stones, The Who, or Queen. The only memories of Zeppelin are their albums and touring during their height. They will never be a has-been band. One can still hope for a reunion but until then we have to go back to the albums and performances of the past for our Led Zeppelin fix.
