Jimmy Page Discusses His 2016 New Music and Band Plans
. Page spoke with Classic Rock about his plans and said the following of the new music he has been working on: "The writing that I've been doing, I'm thinking of it in a totally different way. And that has a charm of its own, and an excitement to it." And although Page has not yet hired any musicians for his touring band, he has already planned out what kind of show he will be staging, and what kind of material it would include. He says, "There will be all sorts of material from different eras," he says. "Right across the board - that's the way I'm seeing it. But like I said, there will be surprises. It won't be entirely what people might be expecting. "The best way for me to think about it," he says, "is pacing towards a really exciting show, where you've still got chance to improvise and come up with new things every night. And I think in that sense, people are going to say, 'Yeah, okay, I get it.' Above all, Page says he will be as well-prepared for his solo tour as Led Zeppelin were for their final show at London's O2 in 2007. 'The O2 was great," he says, "and we worked hard on getting that right. I worked at home, with other musicians, before I got together with the other guys (in Led Zeppelin). And I'll do exactly the same thing next time, because the playing has got to be at least at that level as it was at the O2. I know how to go about it." Read more here.
