Led Zeppelin to Tour With The Cult?
|
It was one of those moments where all you can do is look at the guy next to you and wonder, “Did he really just say that?”
Is it possible that Ian Astbury, lead singer of ’80s rock powerhouse THE CULT, spilled the beans on the biggest secret in rock — during a club show in Cincinnati?
“We’ll be back next year,” a breathless Astbury said midway through the band’s gig at Bogart’s nightclub Saturday night. “Because we’re opening for a band you may have heard of … the name starts with an ‘L’ and has a ‘Z’ in it.” Stunned looks bounced around the room until one sweat-drenched superfan shouted out the obvious: “LED ZEPPELIN!” Astbury, his eyes hidden behind dark shades, nodded affirmatively and stuck his hand in the air triumphantly before plowing into one of the band’s signature Zeppelinesque rockers.
When asked about Astbury’s seeming confirmation of the world tour, spokespeople for THE CULT and ZEPPELIN both declined to comment. ZEPPELIN’s spokesperson added that no decision has been made on any LED ZEPPELIN tour and the band is focusing on its appearance at the Ahmet Ertegun tribute concert in London on December 10; a CULT spokesperson declined to answer questions about Astbury’s comment.
