Zeppelin May Have Plant's Replacement

The Led Zeppelin rumor-mill just keeps a-churning. Today's news? Robert Plant's replacement will be none other than Myles Kennedy, who has reportedly rehearsed with Zeppelin on "several occasions."

Who? What?

Kennedy fronts the band Alter Bridge, which is comprised of the dudes from Creed, minus the douche-y Scott Stapp. Although you wouldn't ever realize that Stapp was absent -- Kennedy sounds just like him.

And nothing like Plant.

Check out this video of "Watch Over You" from Alter Bridge's latest album, Blackbird

Can you really picture this guy singing "Black Dog"?
