They
might be rolling out their new concert film with all the pomp and
circumstance of a full-fledged studio album, but that doesn’t mean
the surviving members of Led Zeppelin are
making any plans for future projects.
Jimmy Page put down the reunion rumors in a new interview with Rolling
Stone,
saying that part of the impetus behind releasing "Celebration Day", the concert film commemorating the band’s one-off reunion in
2007, was a desire to bring fans closer to their performance. “With
Led Zeppelin, it has always been that mystique of how the music is
done how it works, why it works,” (...) “The closer you can
get in on that and the more lingering it is, the better.”
“It
was a serious test, and we passed it, all of us. And we had an
extraordinary communion on the stage. That’s alive and well when
you see it,” Page told Rolling Stone, but he, Plant and Jones seem willing to
let "Celebration Day" remain the final word on the band. “I
think if there had been any more concerts to be done, we’d already
be talking about them. So I don’t see it,” he shrugged, calling
the film “a testament to what we did in 2007. There it is.”
