It is still completely unofficial, but it has been strongly suggested that the idea of a 2008 Led Zeppelin reunion tour is finally in the works. Ian Astbury, lead singer of The Cult revealed during a recent gig that the band have been asked to support Led Zeppelin in their 2008 tour. He is reported to have said: "We'll be back next year, because we're opening for a band you may have heard of. The name starts with an 'L' and has a 'Z' in it." A fan in the audience shouted "Led Zeppelin?" to which the singer nodded, confirming his suspicions. We are still awaiting official confirmation on a tour from the band's management, so stay tuned for the latest info.

Foo Fighters To Play Wembley Stadium
2007-11-21 17:33:00
Foo Fighters are set to play Wembley stadium next year on June 7. The plan at the moment is to have the gig broadcast live on Radio 1 which would definitely pull in more viewers for the radio station while further promoting the band in the UK. Tickets go on sale at 10am this Friday (November 23) and although there will probably be around 75,000 seating tickets and 15,000 standing tickets going on sale I really wouldn't expect these tickets to last more than a few days, so get them while you can.

Thom Yorke Speaks On Solo Album
2007-11-21 17:06:00
Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has claimed that working as a solo artist is "dull". Yorke released his debut solo album The Eraser last year to critical acclaim (and rightly so, it was a masterpiece of an album) but he explained: "It was kind of dull [working on my own]. It was deeply unsatisfying because you weren't sharing much of the process but then I got back with the band and it was like 'Oh my god, there's all these other other people I have to work with now'." On a semi-related note, Thom Yorke's bandmate Ed O'Brien has stated that Yorke needs more persuading on the idea of Radiohead touring next year. We can only hope that it'll happen, as the band can only be described as Gods. On the idea of playing festivals Thom said: "That collective experience. Thousands of people in a field wanting the same thing, going to the same place, with the same mindset. I think that's really important." So festival appearances definitely seem to be a possibility at present.

2007-11-12 18:55:00
English indie-rockers The Futureheads are back and are as average as ever. The new track, titled "Broke Up The Time ", is the first track to be heard from their upcoming, as-yet-untitled third album and can be heard in their new video (above) or on their MySpace page. The track is good but just short of being catchy. It's no "Skip To The End" - that's fo' sho'.

2007-11-07 20:09:00
It has been a colossal year for Gallows ? an English punk rock band that has achieved more in their two years together than most bands accomplish in their entire careers.

They deserve every one of their illustrious achievements. Their upcoming single features English rapper Lethal Bizzle on a modern reworking of song by The Ruts titled "Staring at the Rude Bois ". The new version includes lyrics by Carter and Bizzle to reflect street life in 2007 rather than 1979.

Boyzone Reform for Reunion Tour
2007-11-07 10:14:00
Oh, yes! Another 90s boy band is reforming. The mildly successful Irish boy band Boyzone have already confirmed their performance for the BBC's television charity appeal Children in Need and now they hope to follow it up with a tour. Lead singer Ronan Keating told The Sun: "After all the speculation we are getting back together and we are very excited. We have been talking about it for a while now and decided to go out there on our own and have a go at it." There are problems already though and you will never guess why... The band bought and recorded a song called "I Gave It All Away", which was written by cheesy pop singer Mika, but Mika has banned the release deeming it too cheesy. You can watch Boyzone perform during Children in Need on Friday, November 16.
