Led Zeppelin have announced some details of their reunion show at London’s O2 Arena next Monday, December 10.
“When we were first asked to do this, we were asked to play a 40-minute set,” guitarist Jimmy Page revealed. “We soon realised we couldn’t. If we go out and play “No Quarter”, “Moby Dick” and “Dazed and Confused” with all the solos, you’re already talking over an hour. We’ve gone from 75 minutes to 90, to the best part of two hours.
“There’s no way I can take on playing three-and-a-half-hour sets now,” Page added. “I just don’t have that energy anymore, but I’ve still got enough in me to get through a two-hour set.”
Besides, Led Zeppelin are already rumoured to perform their first US show in over 30 years at the Bonnaroo Festival in Tennessee in June 2008.
