Ian Astbury claims Cult will support Led Zeppelin next year

The Cult's Ian Astbury has reportedly told an audience at a US gig that his band will be supporting Led Zeppelin on tour next year, which is news because Led Zepp have so far been tight lipped on whether more live shows will follow their much hyped reunion gig at The O2 next month. When I say Astbury told his audience, what happened, according to MTV.com, is that he told his audience "We'll be back next year because we're opening for a band you may have heard of ... the name starts with an 'L' and has a 'Z' in it". An audience member then shouted "Led Zeppelin" and Astbury nodded. No word from the Led Zepp camp either way, though there have been indications that a more full on reunion hasn't been ruled out.
