Latest on the Led Zeppelin newsroll.

Apparently Jason Bonham is eager to perform to a ’son of a drumming rock-god legend’ type of standard at the concert next Monday. Yes that’s right, a week away folks, that’s seven more days of post-broken finger rehearsals too. I’m excited to see how the whole thing works out, good or bad, tour or no tour, good Bonham/bad Bonham…yeah, back to Bonham jr, apparently he – along with the rest of the Led Zeppelin faithful – believes he underperformed at the Atlantic records 40th anniversary bash in 1998, I think. He says he’s done ‘his homework’ this time and won’t disappoint: fullstoryheredrummerboy 

The other three Zeppelin veterans are keen to big Bonham up, stating that he seems better prepared and able to do justice to his father’s legacy this time round: furtherbonhamrelatedspeculation

There’s a little article situated HERE! featuring Jimmy Page and his response to the death of John Bonham and his coping with the subsequent disbanding of Led Zeppelin. Only short, but pretty insightful and worth a read if you have a minute.

There’s a hugely speculative and possible totally untrue and massively unfounded rumour that Led Zeppelin are to play the Bonnaroo Festival, Tennessee, next year. Metallica are also supposedly confirmed for the ‘eclectic’ and ‘largest hippy festival’ apparently, possibly, possibly definitely not, 100% maybe. haveagandersatthisbigfatrumour

One week to go then, you think about that sunshine(s).
