[originally published 10/18/07](antiMusic) While it isn't a certain announcement, Jimmy Page has given Led Zeppelin fans the news they have been hoping to hear; that Led Zeppelin may record new music. The guitarist is petty sure that the band will get the "led out" in the studio following their reunion concert at London's 02 Arena next month and John Paul Jones hasn't ruled out further plans for the band either. All eyes on are currently on the November 26th tribute concert for late Atlantic Records boss Ahmet Ertegun where Page, Jones and Robert Plant will reunite on stage for the first time in two decades with Jason Bonham taking the place of his late father John. And while Page wouldn't directly commit to the four musicians playing additional shows, when he was asked by The Winnipeg Sun about the possibility of them recording new material he had this to say, "Look, I'd be really surprised if there wasn't -- you know, I mean I just know the way we are. We're musicians ... as we're playing we'll probably be coming up with all manner of things. And that will be fun. I mean, that's what it's all about.
"Let's do the 02 show, shall we? And then we'll speak to you afterward," he added. Bassist John Paul Jones sang a similar tune when he hinted that there may be a future for a reformed Led Zeppelin but right now they remain focused on the 02 show. "Basically, we are concentrating on this show," Jones told the paper. "That's where all the energy is going. I mean, who knows, but one step at a time."
