Led Zeppelin’s concert at the O2 Arena in London–rumored to have been canceled outright earlier–has been pushed back from Nov. 26 to Dec. 10 because Jimmy Page fractured his finger over the weekend. So wait, what does this mean for people who can’t make the new date? Do they still have to show up with show eight forms of ID in order to transfer their tickets? Oh, that will be fun. Ah, they’re taking refunds. Which means it’s time for another lottery, hooray! Page’s full statement after the jump.
“I am disappointed that we are forced to postpone the concert by two weeks. However, Led Zeppelin have always set very high standards for ourselves, and we feel that this postponement will enable my injury to properly heal, and permit us to perform at the level that both the band and our fans have always been accustomed to.”

Sounds like Page is preparing the cover story for when he plays like crap at this event…”it was me bloody digit!”
Keith Richards is not impressed…
He’s probably going to fracture all of his remainnig fingers and toes to try to weasel out of this one.
The thing about Page’s fingers is . . . they go to number eleven.
