Is Led Zep tour on

Led Zeppelin will tour without Robert Plant, Jimmy Page's manager has revealed.

The rock legends have been at the centre of constant press speculation in recent months, after their celebrated one-off comeback at the O2 Arena in 2007.

It has now been confirmed that Page, John Paul Johns and Jason Bonham are prepared to go out on the road without their founding singer.

Peter Mensch said the band were ready for the "long and difficult process" of finding a new frontman.

"Jimmy Page has been playing guitar professionally since he was 16 years old", he told the BBC.

"Jimmy Page likes being a musician. That's what he does! He doesn't want to be a race car driver or a solicitor.

"John Paul Jones and Jimmy Page enjoy playing with each other, Jason Bonham is a really good drummer so why not? We just need to find a singer", said Mensch.
