Turns out none of this actually happened: While it is true that Plant has put the kibosh on further Led Zeppelin performances since the band’s one-off reunion in 2007, the scenario laid out by The Mirror was entirely fabricated. A spokesman for Plant issued a one-word response (via Blabbermouth), simply stating, “rubbish. The Mirror, meanwhile, has removed the story from its website.

Instead, Plant is currently out on the road supporting his new solo album, lullaby and… The Ceaseless Roar, while bandmate Jimmy Page recent appeared on Letterman to promote Zeppelin’s latest batch of reissues.

If Robert Plant declines LZ reunion performances because he's no longer able to perform those songs without AutoTune assistance then I applaud his artistic honesty.

How could 2014 Robert Plant's voice sing at all like 1970 Robert Plant's voice? I don't think it's possible, so, why should he fake it or give a performance that's nothing like his famous performances?

For money? If he's comfy with his wealth-level now, then, I applaud him for declining for artistic reasons.

Thoughts?

I think an stripped down, acoustic set would be ideal at this point in their lives and would probably be more attractive to Plant.

Good thought. Both Page and Plant could handle that.

Page has always been interested in that style of guitar.

It's possible. They usually throw in some news between their gap of playing good music once every 2 hours.

Probably because he stills tours and does classic Zeppelin songs in all of his shows. This link was a show only a month ago.
