Led Zeppelin To Play Wales Millenium Stadium


Led Zeppelin To Play Wales Millenium Stadium
According to James McCarthy from Wales On Sunday, Millennium Stadium bosses are making an audacious bid to bring rock gods Led Zeppelin to Wales.

They are in talks with promoter Harvey Goldsmith amid rumors that the super group are planning a world tour in October.

WRU spokesman John Williams said: "They are represented by Harvey Goldsmith, who is bringing BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN to the stadium."

"We are talking to Harvey about what else he could possibly bring and Led Zeppelin has come up in conversation."
"There is no deal but we are asking and he is listening. We are at an early stage."

Possible dates have not been discussed with the group, who have long been associated with Wales, recording much of their third album at the remote Bron-Yr-Aur cottage near Aberystwyth.

Mr Williams added: "It'd be great, I think everyone's a fan."

WRU chief executive Roger Lewis, the former worldwide president of Decca records, has already said he would love to bring Led Zeppelin to the capital.

He told Wales on Sunday the WRU could "guarantee a perfect event for 70,000 people".

An online petition, begging the band to tour the globe again, had yesterday been signed by 11,751 fans.
