Drummer Jason Bonham On LED ZEPPELIN Tour - "My Fingers Are Crossed And I Would Do It In A Heartbeat"
June 13, 2008, 16 years ago
According to the BBC News, Jason Bonham says he would go on tour with LED ZEPPELIN in "a heartbeat".
He is the son of the band's original drummer John Bonham, who died in 1980.
Bonham took his father's place at Led Zep's reunion gig at London's 02 Arena in December.
Since then, it has been rumoured the band will bow to fan pressure and announce some more dates.
Bonham said: "It's up to them but if it was up to me, I'd love to."
More than eighty million people around the globe applied for tickets for the 02 event, just 18,000 of them successfully.
It was the first time in twelve years that founding members Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones had performed together.
Bonham told Newsbeat: "It was a fantastic night, it was emotional, it was everything I wanted, and hoped it would be.
"I knew I could do it, but could I do it when it needed to be done, with the nerves and everything?"It was phenomenal."
