The one-off reunion concert by veteran English rock band Led Zeppelin originally set for November 26 has been pushed back to December 10 due to an injury sustained by lead guitarist Jimmy Page. He broke his finger and "will not be able to play guitar for three weeks." The performance at London's O2 Arena is a tribute to the founder of Atlantic Records, owned by Warner Music Group Corp. (NYSE: WMG), Ahmet Ertegun, who originally brought the band to the label in 1968. All tickets for the original date are still valid, according to Billboard's source.

Fortunately for fans, Page's injury to his finger will not halt the array of products becoming available in the coming weeks; foremost of those is the release of the band's entire catalog via digital stores on November 13. A new two-disc compilation entitled Mothership will also be available then. The band's entrance into the digital market leaves The Beatles and Radiohead as the other two major groups not to have material in stores like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL)'s iTunes Store (the store which is coincidentally running a promotional offer for three sets of two fans to win a trip to see the one-off show).

In a statement released by Page, the guitarist announced his disappointment, but urged that the band "feel that this postponement will enable my injury to properly heal and permit us to perform at the level that both the bad and our fans have always been accustomed do." The show will be the first time since 1995 that the band has performed a live set, the last coming at their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Prior to that they had performed only twice, at Live Aid in 1985 and for a 40th anniversary show for Atlantic Records.

Fans may be forced to wait two more weeks, but with this being only the fourth post-breakup show for the band, the wait is probably worth it.
