Zeppelin Rejected Bill Clinton

 

 

Add an ex-President to the list of people that have failed to convince the members of Led Zeppelin to reunite.  CBS has learned that Bill Clinton made a personal plea to the band to come together and perform at the Hurricane Sandy benefit concert in New York City.  The Robin Hood Foundation's David Saltzman and movie exec Harvey Weinstein urged the former President to pitch the band on doing the one-off.  They say he enthusiastically accepted the challenge and gave it his all, telling them, 'I really want to do this, this will be a fantastic thing. I love Led Zeppelin.' The mission to get Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones on the Madison Square Garden on 12-12-12 proved to be as futile as his attempts to broker peace in the Middle East.
