    Oh, that's interesting to consider but I tend to doubt it. Jimmy Sakurai is truly great - no question about that -  but I think putting him in JBLZE would change the dynamic of the band to such an extent that it would no longer be Jason's intimate tribute to his father (if only on the surface) rather just another Led Zeppelin tribute band. If JBLZE is to continue once Catania leaves it would be best for Jason to find another guitarist that is suited for the role. To bring Sakurai into the lineup would be like using a Lamborghini to deliver pizza, if that makes sense.  

    Gotcha. I can see that, too! What's wrong with a Lamborghini? Jason drives a yellow one with fourstix on the plates 😜👍 I did want them to play longer the last two or three times they came through (45 minute set just scratched the surface and opening for Heart a few years ago as well as Cheap Trick & Foreigner this year). They need 2 + hour gig of their own with maybe an opener so they can do a proper tribute to Bonzo (like when I saw them first in November 2010 on the first JBLZE tour). Since then, it's been marginalized due to opening / time constraints. We got 9 songs this year. (They should have started 30 minutes earlier). https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/jason-bonham/2017/chastain-park-amphitheater-atlanta-ga-7be5eee0.html

    Dread Zeppelin documentary? Well, that is good news. Looking forward to more behind the scenes footage and commentary.

    I caught Tortelvis' (white) towel (from Howard Johnson's) back in 1990 at Greenstreets in Columbia, SC. They played a late concert (11pm start time) after Robert Plant performed the same night (at the Carolina Coliseum). There was rumor he'd show up for their concert as well.  We didn't see him.

    I assume a single will be dropped next month, since the album is supposed to come out in September.

    So... when EXACTLY is the 50th?  

    I guess fans can only hope that as the band as well as those who handle their merchandise begin to talk of the 50th, some of the aforementioned ideas will at least be discussed.

    Late August / early September (7th)  2018, I would presume, since they started as the New Yardbirds and played Scandinavian tour early on or early 2019 to mark 50 years from original release of their first album. I'd go with late summer / early fall 2018.

  5. For me: A Final one-off concert in the US (where Led Zeppelin became the biggest band in the world and sold the most records), a live concert (unreleased show) and/or any documentary DVD/Blu Ray or a release of new/unreleased material from Page, Plant, Jones & Bonham featuring Jason would be welcome at any time, especially to mark their 50th Anniversary. None are likely, but if anything other than a rehash of a hits compilation would be great.
