JASON BONHAM: 'I Would Do A LED ZEPPELIN Tour In A Heartbeat'

June 13, 2008

Gigwise.com reports that Jason Bonham, the son of LED ZEPPELIN's original drummer John Bonham, has said that he would tour with LED ZEPPELIN "in a heartbeat."

Bonham took over his late father's drum seat when the band reformed for a one-off reunion show in London last year.

The concert, at the O2 Arena, was watched by 20,000 fans, although over a million people registered for tickets for the event.

Since the concert, rumors have been rife as to whether the band will announce any more shows.

Frontman Robert Plant is currently promoting "Raising Sands", his album with Alison Krauss, on a U.S. tour.

Speaking to the BBC, Bonham said: "It's up to them but if it was up to me, I'd love to."

Bonham, who said the reunion show was "better than I could have imagined," said he hoped to be put into the loop regarding more shows.

"My fingers are crossed and I would do it in a heartbeat," he said.
