Reader Request: What would you do to get Led Zeppelin to tour?
December 20th, 2007 - by Eddie
Ever since their successful one-night gig, people (mainly bloggers) have been trying to start rumors of the band embarking on a world tour. So far, those rumors have been squashed. But that won’t stop us from speculating about what could be the best concert ever.
So, to let the band know just how passionate we feel, here are 21 things I would do to convince the band to tour:
1. Stop throwing candy at trees (I should also stop stealing it from babies, but one step at a time)
2. Refrain from looking at porn on the Internet
3. Agree to see one sappy movie a month with my girlfriend (she wants to see “P.S. I Love You” this weekend…ugh)
4. Defend Britney (and now her sister!) Spears’ life choices
5. Read every word of The Fountainhead
6. Stop silent-but-deadly farting in the movie theater (I know. I’m a dick)
7. Contribute to Fred Thompson’s presidential failure campaign
8. Do 10 somersaults in a row down a hallway after drinking 2 milkshakes
9. Buy the entire Zep discography and give it away
10. Wear a little black dress with stilettos in a bar on a Friday night (I’m a dude, that’s why)
11. Paint someone’s house for free…whether they wanted it painted or not
12. Date your mom
13. Stop making inappropriate comments/gestures/e-cards for your sister (even though she totally digs it)
14. Open an erotic bakery like this one
15. Throwing water on a fire rather than away
16. Spend $200 at the crappy strip club in town during the 4 a.m. skank shift
17. Buy an iPhone…for someone else
18. Watch Jimmy Fallon’s stand-up without heckling or throwing poisoned fruit at him
19. Actively pursue the autographs of reality TV stars (although technically this means I can go after Mr. T and Flava Flav)
20. Watch “2 Girls 1 Cup” over and over again while eating refried beans (If you don’t know what that is, you’re lucky)
21. Stop pissing on toilet seats in public bathrooms
There you have it. Now what are you prepared to offer to the gods of Rock?

I was so blissfully unaware of 2 Girls 1 Cup before this. My life will never be the same again, and that ain’t a good thing.
To see Zeppelin tour, I would stop listening to Zeppelin.
Yea, think about that one.
