What do you think? Possibly some new Led Zep songs?

That would be sweet! -
Could Zeppelin ever be Zeppelin without Bonzo? I mean, I realize Jason is his son, who's a very able and professional drummer... but I mean, it's like contemplating what Pink Floyd would be without Roger Waters. Oh, wait... we know what that's like. I rest my case.

I hear what you're saying. As the story goes, when Jimmy first heard Bonzo play, he then knew what his new band should sound like. In many ways, Bonzo was the heart and soul of Zeppelin. But still, I'd happily listen to whatever material the remaining members (plus Jason) can come up with.

Something always happens when these three want to get together. You wait, Robert Plant won't do it and they'll have to hire some dork like Dougie White and call themselves, "Iron Balloon" and they will do some lame *** tour and make tons of money doing Zep classics. I will almost bet this is what will happen. This stuff never seems to fall in place with these three.More custom Mego madness on Facebook right here...

No offense to drummers...but no way is a "drummer vs. Roger Waters"Could Zeppelin ever be Zeppelin without Bonzo? I mean, I realize

argument equal in the context of "value" in a band's sound/style...
That was the sixties, when hard rock was basically non-existent---I hear what you're saying. As the story goes, when Jimmy first heard
Bonzo play, he then knew what his new band should sound like.
with the advent of Bonham and hard rock drumming---40 years later---
there's quite a few drummers who could make Zep's music passable---
Drums ---played in a certain style----are very integral to hard rock---
but are the least important factor when it comes to style up against
a guitar style/sound or vocal style/sound
In the case oif Zeppelin, it matters not much anyway because Jason Bonham
knows exactly what to do to compensate for his father's abscence.
In some ways Jason Bonham is more John Bonham circa 1980 than Plant is
Plant, Page is Page or Jones is Jones (at their peaks)."No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris MannixComment

Every player, every instrument has an individual style. Bonzo was arguably the most unique drummer with the most signature sound, and style, of any drummer in rock history -- with the possible exceptions of Keith Moon and Ringo Starr. At the end of the day, Jason plays differently, however slightly, from his late dad; he makes different choices, fills in the patterns differently, lays down a different groove.
I've no doubt that this foursome would and could form a blistering powerhouse of brilliant, progressive rock. I wouldn't even necessarily object to their calling themselves "Led Zeppelin". I'm just saying that it would be different, have a different sound, be a different band from the one that dissolved in 1980.Comment
