So yeah, the greatest thief of American black music who ever walked the earth broke his finger and now the Led Zeppelin show originally scheduled for November 26 has been pushed back to December 10. (Two words, Jimmy: Dialing wand.) You still can't get tickets.
No word on when the Firm and Coverdale/Page reunion shows have been rescheduled to. David is waiting for your phone call, Jim!
In other Zeppish news, I surprised myself by really enjoying the collaboration between Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, Raising Sand, especially considering I am indifferent to Plant's work outside of Zeppelin (exception: "Tall Cool One"). Still, the pairing of Plant, the amazing Krauss and always-cool producer T-Bone Burnett is pritty-bad-ass, at least as bad-ass as a eclectic bluegrass-folk-celtic-rock gets. It's worth further investigation.
