With reunions seemingly becoming increasingly en vogue for classic rock bands, with Queen again returning to the stage with the help of Adam Lambert, it seems Plant isn't interested in cutting a slice of the pie.
Despite rumours that Plant had been speaking to former bandmates Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones, ahead of the group's 50th anniversary, the frontman shot down rumours of them re-teaming on stage.
He joked about a possible reunion being, "only in a chip shop in Camden Town! I think that's about as close as we will get to it! We are very pleased and glad with our very, very short career. If you think about it, it's only 12 years. We get on OK, but, you know... "
The surviving members of the group, originally formed in 1968, last played as Led Zeppelin at a show at London's O2 Arena in London in December 2007; Jason Bonham, son of the group's late drummer John Bonham, filled in for his father.
Fans can also strike a Glastonbury spot out of the books, too. When asked whether Led Zeppelin could be coerced into headlining the festival next year, he replied: "Nobody needs coercing, you either want to do something or you don't; or you can or you can't."
