Led Zeppelin Reunion Too Much Pressure Says Robert Plant

07/31/2014
. (hennemusic) Robert Plant reveals in a new interview with Uncut that he feels that there is too much pressure for a full blown Led Zeppelin reunion for it to be a success.

"A couple of years ago, I said [to Jimmy Page], 'If you've got anything acoustic, let me know. I'll give it a whirl.' It was hands across the water," Plant tells Uncut. "But he walked away. Just walked away. But we couldn't do anything proper. The weight of expectation is too great."

In recent months, the lone holdout for a reunion of the iconic band has been trading shots with his former bandmate over the subject. "I feel for the guy," explained Plant. "He knows he's got the headlines if he wants them. But I don't know what he's trying to do. So I feel slightly disappointed and baffled."

Page told the New York Times in May that Led Zeppelin remains in a holding pattern until Plant fully recommits himself to the group. "I was told last year that Robert Plant said he is doing nothing in 2014, and what do the other two guys think?," said the guitarist. "Well, he knows what the other guys think. Everyone would love to play more concerts for the band. He's just playing games, and I'm fed up with it, to be honest with you. I don't sing, so I can't do much about it. It just looks so unlikely, doesn't it?" More on this story.
