Your prayers are answered people. You’ve asked for a reunion and a new album since the band broke up in 1980. Well now you have it. The band has officially announced a 50th anniversary reunion tour and new album. The only glitch is that the three original band members are too busy to be bothered. This is purely a money grab by the record company. The band will consist of David Coverdale on vocals (originally it was Kingdom Come front man Lenny Wolf, but since he has never heard of Led Zeppelin he was nixed), Spirit bassist Mark Andes (who was quoted as saying “I have all of the Led Zeppelin albums in my collection, but have never played them”), CC Deville on guitars (pink hair and all), and Lars Ulrich on drums.

I get to listen to pop music when my daughter is in the car. I can handle the female singers. The men though are so computerized and autotuned it is just awful.

Ha! You bugger! I almost fell for this until the Lars Ulrich bit. Everyone knows it’s Dave Grohl that will be drumming on this tour.

Dave Grohl is busy. He will be in a new supergroup with Josh Homme. Although there are rumours this band will open for the new Led Zep on their Glasgow dates.

I will definitely go and see that. I’ve been buying a lot of the Grohl and Homme discography today and throughly enjoying it all.

You guys are so off-base. Ginger Baker and Ringo will be alternating on drums. Mid-show, Ringo will get up, do that side-to-side, arm-swinging dance of his and sing “Photograph” and “A Little Help From My Friends.”

The Cheese Dicks is the new band name for the Homme/Grohl band.
Their new album Turn Your Head And Cough is going to kill it.

Their first single is a remake of a classic: Hoagy Carmichael’s “I’m a Cranky Old Yank in a Clanky Old Tank on the Streets of Yokohama with my Honolulu Mama Doing Those Beato, Beato, Flat on my Seato Hirohito Blues.”
