Slim chance of Led Zeppelin playing the 2012 London Olympics

Fri, 30 Dec 2011

With all the 2012 London Olympic ceremony rumours and speculation  Jason Bonham has told The Sun newspaper there's a slim chance of seeing Led Zeppelin reunite to play the big event.

Jason Bonham, son of late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, filled in for his father in 2007 for a charity event, but a full scale band reunion didn't go ahead after singer Robert Plant decided to stay solo.

"I haven't spoken to Robert for about six months but he is really enjoying himself.

"For me you can never say never. If you ask me today is it gonna happen immediately, well no, there is no talk of it. But if you said to me in 2007 I would play with Led Zeppelin in December that year I would say you're nuts, so you never know." 

Although he's not expecting the reunion, nothing is yet official.  Other rumours for the opening ceremony have included The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney (Ringo Starr has already denied any plans for the duo to play together due to his own tour schedule), and Queen.
