Billie Joe Freaks Out....

Classic Rock is giving us 10 Reasons Why Led Zeppelin Will Never Reunite

According to the interview questions from the Friday press conference concerning the Celebration Day release....

10 Reasons

Click the link above for the video and or full transcript as well. I will give you reasons #1-10 of why Zep won't reunite:

1. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
2. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
3. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
4. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
5. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
6. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
7. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
8. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
9. Robert Plant doesn't want to.
10. Robert Plant doesn't want to.

And I really don't have a problem with that. If he ain't into it I don't want to see it. If the Page & Plant tours were as close as I get that is fine with me.

Double A Friday

•  LED ZEPPELIN ARE REUNITING.....today in London for the launch of the Celebration Day DVD/theater release.
• Black Country Communion's one off possible farewell show has been canceled. The bands future appears to be in doubt at this point. Most "supergroups" never last to long but they have had quite a run.
• Ian Anderson, scheduled locally, is a supporter of Christian church-even though he is not a christian. For some reason I thought he was an atheist?
• Down have pulled out of their scheduled show at the revamped Ridglea Theater. The grand re-opening gala is scheduled for the weekend of Oct. 20th and they have several acts booked.
• Adam Ant is tonight at the Granada-and it is sold out.....

Rolling Stone Reader Poll

According to Rolling Stone readers these are the Greatest Heavy Metal Albums of All Time:

1) Master Of Puppets - METALLICA
2) Paranoid - BLACK SABBATH
3) Black Sabbath - BLACK SABBATH
4) The Number Of The Beast - IRON MAIDEN
5) ...And Justice For All - METALLICA
6) Reign In Blood - SLAYER
7) Appetite For Destruction - GUNS N' ROSES
8) Metallica - METALLICA
9) Led Zeppelin II - LED ZEPPELIN
10) Ride The Lightning - METALLICA 

Not that I disagree with any of the albums on the list, well except for Justice, but there are far too many excluded, including two of The Big Four, Megadeth & Anthrax. With that being said I am not sure any Anthrax album would made the Top 10 list, but Megadeth could have an inclusion. I am glad to see Maiden and Slayer made the list as well.  A few others of note that could have been included: Judas Priest, Motorhead, Pantera, Ozzy, AC/DC, System of a Down-I could go on.....

HOWEVER-I found a much more inclusive list below at Metal Rules. Check these guys out-looks like they do most of there work for the love of metal!
