About

JASON BONHAM IN CONCERT:

Jason Bonham’s thunderous drumming recalls one of the greatest to ever sit behind the skins: his father John Bonham of Led Zeppelin. Even as the son of a rock legend, Jason has managed to carve out a niche of his own, becoming one of the most in-demand drummers playing today. Instead of just conducting the band from behind his trademark transparent kits, Bonham often engages with the audience, calling for them to cheer and sing along to their favorite songs. Touring with both his original material and his work with Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Experience, he continues to treat ticket buyers to mind-blowing drumming that simply cannot be missed.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

When legendary Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham died, there was only one person who could come close to creating the massive sound he was known for-—his son Jason. Whenever the band has needed over the past 20 years, Jason Bonham has stepped into his father’s shoes, admirably carrying the torch lite by the late great drummer. The younger Bonham is a virtuosic musician in his own right, good enough to open for The Firm in 1985, when he was just 19. In addition to supporting the likes of Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page, Slash, Foreigner, UFO, Paul Rodgers, and Joe Bonamassa, he leads his tribute band Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Experience. He also appeared as part of the fictional band Steel Dragon in the movie Rock Star (2001) along with guitarist Zakk Wylde. In 2006 Bonham co-starred in the VH1 reality series Supergroup along with other noteworthy rock stars Ted Nugent, Sebastian Bach, and Scott Ian.

    The concert was excellent. You could have closed your eyes and thought you were listening to Page, Plant, and Bonham. Tony Granata on lead guitar is incredible, Bonham is spot on and the rest of the band is top notch. They really do justice to Led Zeppelin and their music. Anyone who hasn't seen them should.

    Carrying the Torch

    by Anonymous on 5/26/15The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor - Windsor

    Great band, guitar player was spot on. I & II were blues themed and III & IV rocked with some gems from Physical Graffiti.

    Zeppelin Fans Rejoice

    by beatles2001 on 5/26/15The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor - Windsor

    Man what to say, this has got to be without a doubt one of the best tributes I have ever seen in my life. The sound is so spot on that if your not looking directly at the band you would swear it is the original group performing. Go see this concert will not disappoint.

    Jason Bonham awesome!

    by Anonymous on 5/26/15The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor - Windsor

    This was our first time seeing him in concert. This was by far the best show we have been too. He's entertaining, and the music was just like the original. We will definitely go back to see him again.

    Great Show, Unusual Crowd, Good Acoustics

    by immersifi on 5/25/15The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor - Windsor

    I had seen Jason a few years back at DTE as part of the Heart show there, and loved them. Full disclosure - I am a dyed-in-the-wool 'Zeppelin fan, so let's get that out of the way. Still, at DTE and at this show, in no way did the band disappoint - if anything was a disappointment it was the fans. I was bewildered by how many fans in attendance sat (like an oil painting) and or did not applaud. When I say 'sat' I mean as in never once choosing to rise to their feet to appluad the great musicianship that was on display. I mean...here you have Jason Bonham - himself an exceptionally skilled percussionist and son of the late, great John Henry Bonham - fronting a band that is paying the most sincere homage to his dad and to Messrs Page, Plant, and Jones...and you just sit that ? Really? Nothing was good enough to get you on your feet? Part of me wondered if some of the crowd were there as a consequence of having received "comp" tickets from the Casino, or were already planning on being at the Casino that night and the show was just 'part' of their night out rather than the reason for being there. For me, it was the sole reason I chose to visit the venue (I am not into gambling...just music). Again, I have to contrast this show with the shows at DTE (now that I think about it, I may have seen the Jason Bonham Experience twice there). Maybe it's the DTE crowds, maybe the venue...but...people were there to hear the music, and were way more enthusiastic than what I saw at the Windsor show. Jason even said - at one point - that the Security people should let fans down in front of the stage, and that people could stand if they wanted...but few people responded. Some of us chose to stand as Jason had sort of given the green light. All in all though, a great show. If you are a die-hard 'Zeppelin fan you recognized that some of the tunes were done as faithful renditions of the album versions, while other tracks were played as period-correct version from the Band's live shows from the 70's. That was one thing that made it really cool for me - that is, that they really did try to emulate the live shows (i.e. versions of songs as found in the film / soundtrack "The Song Remains the Same" and other since-released live 'Zeppelin material. This alone was great to hear because it just showed me ho seriously Jason takes this whole thing, and that they made it happen was all the better. As far as the Band, yes, they tore it up. The guitarist (apologies to all as I do not recall their names) were spot-on. Yes, they even broke out the Theremin and not only that, the guitarist emulated Page's riffs on that instrument - NOT an easy thing to do. As far as his riffs and runs, really, really good work there. No, he is not Jimmy Page (who is?), but again, that he executed so many of Page's riffs with the proper phrasing and style was really great. Likewise for bass and keys - they were all on, as was the vocalist (formerly of "Virtual Zeppelin" on YT) who did a great job of emulating Plant's vocals of that era. The encores rocked (as did the whole show, which was missed on man as I have mentioned) and came from records other than I & II (they came from "IV" and "Physical Graffiti" among others). Hearing Jason join-in on "When the Levee Breaks" (they started it with an homage to Bonzo) and then hearing the band CRUSH that made it all the more special. So, for a handful of fans who really 'got' what he was doing, it was (I'm sure they would agree) an awesome show. However, as I stood down in front of the stage, I looked back at the house, and even during the encores, few people chose to stand (and I looked back before and during the encores, but again, most of the audience just weren't into it to the degree that the die-hard 'Zeppelin fans (like me) were into it. I will definitely go see the 'Experience again (assuming they continue to tour), but frankly, I think that I would prefer to see (hear) them at DTE. It just seemed to me that when I saw them there before, the audience were far more 'into it' and appreciative...and this positive feedback always makes for a better show. On the other hand, the acoustics of the venue (at Casino Windsor) are quite good...so there's that. All in all, a great show for those who were open to what the Band were laying down. Great, great show.

    Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience

    by LedZeppeLinda on 5/3/13Electric Factory - Philadelphia

    I saw them perform in November in the Electric Factory in Philly. It was an absolutely UNFORGETTABLE, AMAZING show! If you are a Led Zeppelin fan, you NEED to see this. I can't wait until July 2nd, when I'm going to see them again with Heart & my son gave me for my birthday VIP tickets, so I'm actually going to get to MEET Jason! I don't to wait anymore!!!

    Fantastic show

    by Chaves on 11/15/10Ruth Eckerd Hall - Clearwater

    One of the best concerts I have ever seen! Jason's timely interaction with the audience is an unexpected bonus and brings us close to his dad and family. Be prepared to watch him jamming with his dad, thanks to sophisticated audio-visual effects. Vocalist should wear a long hair wig. He sounds just like Robert Plant. Simply awesome.
