Jimmy Page 2010 Tour

Jimmy Page has confirmed that he plans to be performing a whole lotta new solo material on a upcoming 2010 tour. In a recent interview, by Sky News, Page revealed that he's been working on some new music since the Led Zeppelin reunion gig held at London's O2 arena in December 2007.

"We're running up to Christmas now and next year I have every intention of playing music live and manifesting it," Page said during the interview. "I've got the music waiting, and that's what i'll be doing. It's been two years since the O2, so it's time to do that."

There is no word yet on a release date for the new material nor are there any confirmed tour dates other than the newly announced show in Beijing Bird's Nest Stadium on 10/10/2010. Original date was 17th April but this has been changed. ShowOfPeace.com for more details.

Jimmy Page was inducted into the Mojo Hall Of Fame (presented by Universal Catalogue Marketing) on June 10th 2010 at the British music magazine's annual prize awards ceremony in London, England.


Page was hailed for his groundbreaking contributions to modern music during the 2010 Mojo Honours List Awards, which are voted for by readers of the publication.

Phil Alexander, MOJO's Editor-In-Chief, stated "Jimmy Page is the musician by whom all other musicians are measured. Every guitar player wants to sound like him, every producer wants to capture the sounds he captured. He is a genuine music legend, and a recent BBC poll, which placed Led Zeppelin above even The Beatles, only underlines it. And, tantalisingly, the prospect of a new Jimmy Page project suggests that the man still has something up his sleeve. I can't wait to hear what it is."

Page, who last won a Mojo award for the 2007 Led Zeppelin reunion, revealed he was working on new material with a number of different projects.

"I'm just looking forward to making some music and surprising people with it," he said.

"It won't be just teaming up with lots of people who are [big] names. I've got an idea of something which I've had for a long time and now's the time to do it."

He didn't offer any further details about his collaborators or his new direction.

JP recently signed on with music management company IE.

Jimmy Page Launches new book

Last Thursday (4th November). Jimmy Page celebrated his new Genesis limited edition book with a VIP launch. Situated just off Denmark Street - London's famous 'Tin Pan Alley' - at Elms Lesters Painting Rooms guests enjoyed the chance to view an exhibit of photographs selected by Page himself for inclusion in his visual autobiography.

Guests included Bill Wyman, Ronnie Wood, Sir Peter Blake, Mike McCartney (all authors of previous Genesis editions) plus Roy Harper and British rock band Kasabian.

A public exhibit ran until Saturday 6th November, providing visitors from London and further afield - many traveling from countries such Switzerland, France and the USA to attend - an insight into Genesis book publishing.

Jimmy Page: "I’ve really got a lot of time for the way Genesis produce their books, they’re really quality items. As someone who’s always been interested in having a library themselves, I appreciate fine bookbinding and their whole ethic of what they do and what they’re trying to do with a whole catalogue of books."
