Times Online reported in December that LED ZEPPELIN could earn well over �100 million (approximately $200 million) if the hard-rock band went on tour this year in the wake of last month's triumphant reunion gig. The band is being pursued with offers from both Live Nation and AEG, the rival concert promoters, with each structuring bids in the form of a large upfront payment to lure the band to their venues.
One source said that "AEG put a bid in on the night" � although that could not be confirmed independently � but intense demand would probably make a ZEPPELIN reunion the most sought-after ticket in 2008.
