Members of Led Zeppelin were keen to turn their 2007 reunion show into a full tour... but Robert Plant was too busy. "Some of us thought we would be continuing, that there were going to be more concerts in the not-too-distant-future," admitted guitarist Jimmy Page. "Because there was a lot of work being put into the show." However it turns out he didn't realise how busy and committed to other projects the Plant was. "He was doing his Alison Krauss project. I wasn't fully aware it was going to be launched at the same time. So what do you do in a situation like that?" asked the guitarist, who admitted they looked at continuing with other singers in 2008. "I'd been working with the other two guys for the percentage of the rehearsals at the O2. We were connecting well. The weakness was that none of us sang."
