(Classic Rock) Robert Plant's spokesman has slammed a newspaper claim that the singer tore up a $800 million Led Zeppelin reunion tour contract, calling the story "rubbish".

The Mirror reported that he'd asked for 48 hours to consider an offer from Virgin billionaire Richard Branson after Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham had all signed up.

The deal was said to include 35 concerts with an option on more, a Virgin plane renamed The Starship in memory of Led Zep's 1970s aircraft, plus ?190m payouts to each of the three original members and ?70m of merch income. It would have been their first shows since 2007's one-off London concert. Read more here.
