Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page has just released the following statement regarding the date change of the upcoming Led Zeppelin reunion performance that is part of the Ahmet Ertegun Tribute Concert. Originally scheduled for November 26, 2007, the concert has been rescheduled to December 10 as the result of Page having fractured a finger.

A MESSAGE FROM JIMMY PAGE

As you all know by now I was regrettably put in a situation where I had to postpone my performance at the Ahmet Ertegun Benefit show, on November 26th, due to a fractured finger. We have now rescheduled this show to take place, at the same venue, on December 10th.

In doing so I was very conscious of the fact that many people are travelling great distances to attend. I do want to let everyone know that this decision was unavoidable. My apologies to anyone who has been inconvenienced by this change.

I would also like to thank everyone else involved for their help with making this change. Harvey Goldsmith, the trustees of the Ahmet Ertegun Foundation and, of course, the other artists who so willingly agreed to join us on the show.

I look forward to the 10th December!


Jimmy Page
