10 Rock Stars Who Should NOT Replace Robert Plant
The news that Led Zeppelin are planning to tour without the legendary Robert Plant has got me thinking about who I would hate to see step in on vocal duties.
Below is a list of ten 'rock stars' who would truly make my blood boil (not to mention hardcore Zep fans) if they appeared on-stage alongside Jimmy Page, John-Paul Jones and Jason Bonham supposedly as Led Zeppelin any time soon.
While Robert Plant is putting his feet up after his lengthy touring commitments with Alison Krauss, there's a serious risk that if the remaining members make the wrong choice they could seriously tarnish the flawless Led Zeppelin name.
Alter Bridge's Myles Kennedy is someone who is currently being brandished around by the rumour mill, but while he at least has some credibility, these ten -some of whom admittedly are a tad far fetched - are a whole lot worse.
Check who Jimmy, John-Paul and Jason should give a very wide berth below!
Post your comments below if you think any rock stars missing, or if you have any burning opinions on the issue.

10. Corey Taylor (masked) – In all honesty, I like Corey Taylor in Slipknot; in fact he's a damn fine front man in the context of his band. But imagine seeing someone leaping around manically in a dodgy horror mask at Zeppelin shows. Jesus wept.

- Paul McCartney would be a pretty bad one!!
- On an opposite note - I think Sammy Hagar would be AWESOME with Zeppelin!!
- as if they seriously would consider ANY of these people. gimme a break.
- I have a couple of artists that would be ridiculous singing in Led Zeppelin. The first one is Boy George (!!), another one could be James Blunt (can you imagine Led Zeppelin covering "You're Beautiful"?), Bryan Ferry (too glamorous) or even Fred Durst (what is he doing right now?).
Great web site!
