The three members of Led Zeppelin are featured in the latest Uncut Magazine and reveal that plans for a reunion tour are far from certain.

Robert Plant "Hopefully, one day we could do it again for another really, really good reason... For people who came from Australia or Japan, to Jason (Bonham's) family, John's family, all the families -- anticipation and expectation was huge. The potential for failure was also great because nobody knew what it was going to be like."

John Jaul Jones"It felt like the first night of a tour. You think, 'Oh, I could do that bit better, or change something in that song.' And we didn't get a chance to do any more." "I'm not too certain about anything at the moment. I've got no idea what's going to happen, but I'd certainly like to play with Jimmy again."

Jimmy Page: "The focus was on the O2 show. That's what I had my focus on. As for Robert, he had a parallel project (with Alison Krauss) and it's been successful, which I suppose means he doesn't have time for Zeppelin at this moment. What I do know -- is at the rehearsals, and the O2 gig, we were really inspiring. Okay? That's all I'll say."

Jimmy also states that while the latest show was recorded there are no plans to release it on DVD

"It was recorded, but we didn't go in with the express purpose of making a DVD to come out at Christmas, or whatever. We haven't seen the images or investigated the multitracks. It's feasible that it might come out at some distant point, but it'll be a massive job to embark on."
