antneed Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 I haven't read anywhere, nor was I lucky enough to actually attend the show, but did anyone mention Bonzo at all during the show? Like a triubute or "here's to you Bonzo" etc. ? Thanks.... Quote
NickZepp Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 (edited) There was a story by Plant about how Bonzo used to sing Hendrix and hew as the best Hendrix impersonator in England in the late 60s. He would sing 'The Wind Cries Mary' The intro mentioned Bonzo also. Edited December 13, 2007 by NickZepp Quote
airwaves Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 I don't recall Bonzo being mentioned by name, but after one particular bout of hectic drumming (I regret I can't remember which track) Jason stood up and slapped the top of his left arm hard 2 or 3 times, as if 'touching' a tattoo he had their. Is there one to his dad there? Quote
Georgia Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Ohhhh how sweet, I loved John, he was such a nice guy. he was always laughing. Quote

dragster Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Bonzo and Ginger Baker perhaps the 2 biggest rock drumers out there Quote
FireOpal Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Robert mentioned Pat as well. And he told a story about when Jason was a wee lad. Random bit, tho you didn't ask: Robert quoted a Doors lyric from Texas Radio & the Big Beat, "Out here on the perimeter there are no stars." Don't ask me what it related to, because it had nothing to do with anything else he said. Maybe he was asking the spirit of Jim Morrison to tell Bonham he said hi. Quote
