Can't access the story for some reason. Acess the site, but then IE aborts - go figure!
However, I'm assuming that this one night only event is not going to be in HH or even BKK, so I'm now registering an official protest & sulk at being in the wrong place & missing it!

not officially announced yet but will be in the next few hours.
it's been on the cards for a while & is actually old news if you are a planet rock listener
not much chance of getting a ticket but i have seen robert plant twice & despite some negative media reports, he still rocks
a world tour next maybe?, followed by a pink floyd reunion tour . . . . we can but dream  _________________ when all are one & one is all, to be a rock & not to roll.

I've cut a bit from the report for you Dawn, here it is:
It is the perfect chance to dust down the leather jacket and unfold the faded jeans.
Led Zeppelin, the British rock group who disbanded 27 years ago, are expected to announce that they will reunite later today.
The group disbanded 27 years ago. The band are planning to host a one-off gig at the O2 Arena in Greenwich for their first performance together in 19 years.
Anticipation for the event has been so great that tickets have already been put on sale over the internet for as much £300.
Many of these tickets have since been found to be fakes but it is expected that the event will sell out almost immediately.
A few points here:
No.1: They'll destroy all our lovely dreams by not playing 'Stairway to Heaven' properly.
No.2: They'll all look like very aged rockers.
No.3: They'll sing off-key.
Anyway, we're a few thousand miles away, the tickets are too damned expensive, and where the heck is the 02 Arena in Greenwich?
