Jason Bonham unaware of any Led Zeppelin tour plans

Jason Bonham says he knows of no Led Zeppelin tour plans beyond thanks to his bandmates, though rumours persist of a residency or Glastonbury appearance.

Jason 'son of John' Bonham has been commenting on persisting rumours that a Led Zeppelin tour may now take place in 2008. Bonham, of course, took his late dad's place behind the drums for the much hyped Led Zepp reunion at The O2 last week.

And no doubt to the disappointment of Led Zepp fans everywhere, he's denying any knowledge of tour plans. He told Billboard: "There's been no talks except to Jimmy [Page] and Robert [Plant] and John Paul [Jones], just to say thanks for the best Christmas present I could ask for. If they do it again, of course I would love to. But that's up to them. Only time will tell. If you'd have asked me a year ago, 'Are they gonna do a date next year?,' I'd have gone, 'No way!' So I was proved wrong once before."

Nevertheless, rumours persist of a Led Zepp residency at New York's Madison Square Garden and of a headline appearance at Glasto, while rumour now has it Cardiff's Millennium Stadium are in discussions about the band playing there. To compensate the Welsh for all that 'X Factor' trauma presumably.
