Not only did Jason do a great job at the reunion concert, he was the only one that could do it and still call it Led Zeppelin in my mind.

[@BUNKERwebTV]

I don`t disagree with that, but there are drummers out there who could have done it too. Tommy Lee is one of them. You might laugh but Tommy`s style is very similar to Bonham`s. It`s simpler and more int the pocket, but Tommy has that back beat Bonham had.

[@Mymomsaidiwascool]

You did it! In my opinion the only one that could. Great job!

[@vanshipman]

I love all of the rock stars who have kids who are super talented, Jason is amazing. Eddie Van Halen’s son Wolfgang is another who is incredible, he definitely got his Dads musical genetics. Peter Framptons son Julian is great, Steve Lukather’s son Trev is great, and Ringo’s son Zak is an absolute beast, you don’t play for the WHO otherwise.

This makes me so emotional. Bonzo created such a unique drum style and helped form a piece of some of the greatest rock music of all time. To see his son carry on his legacy and to have his band mates welcome him in and have such a connection is amazing. His father would be so proud.

If the 3 remaing members are praising him. That's all he needs.

[@aanon9333]

couldn't agree more

[@kilmoturtles1]

Yea, but don't you think they feel a bit obligated to praise him? Would you put down your friend's son? Ultimately, he just does not have his father's feel for the rhythm. I'm not saying he is as bad as Lars from Metallica, but he jsut does not have that feeling for the rhythm that his father had. I think you get the remaining members in a closed room and they would all say that as well. IDK.. that home video of him playing just makes me think.. damn dude,, chill out and slow down! But, maybe he was just really excited and could not help it.. but even then you know there is a natural rhythm to the sound and you have to keep that accurate metronome going in your head. he can play all the beats in pieces.. he just has trouble flowing naturally with other musicians , IMO!

[@tugaJP112]

No one in this world has beaten their super genius father in any field when they set a trademark and became number one in the world on what they did. So expecting Jason beating his Dad is just unrealistic. Either enjoy his drumming or go listen to John Bonham, instead of coming here and throwing negative comments about a son who badly misses his father and remembers him through his drumming. Jason no matter what, Daddy is extremely proud that you are holding it up to his legacy. Thank you.

[@steviesindahouse4903]

To all the naysayers, have you ever played with a band as hallowed as Led Zeppelin? Really impossible unless you've played with Led Zeppelin! Well Jason has! I think one of the most moving aspects of this is how seriously Jason took the 1988 Atlantic gig .. oh, and also what JPJ had to say about Jase following his specific bass fill from a show from Chicago in 1975 .. hmm, and how according to JPJ, when Bonzo had prompted his son to assume the throne (and a throne it most definitely was), so he could check on his sound, that JP played on thinking he was still playing with John! There's a great generosity of spirit shown by these Gods .. too many instances to cite .. but most certainly in evidence here. I am infinitely proud to say I've been introduced to Jase, many moons ago. Honestly, the thing that springs to mind most, thinking about all this, and as I type this tears are literally welling up in my eyes, is how it would feel to be in Jason's shoes, losing your Dad so unexpectedly, who clearly loved him so very dearly, and who encouraged him to follow in his truly giant footsteps. I salute all involved in this tribute, including Bonzo (RIP, physically no longer with us but most definitely there in spirit), but most of all Jase. God bless you all ...

just adding nods... you said it well. They were the prototype, along w/ DP, inventing the genre, and Jason humbly and w/ great respect did his dad proud.

Well, actually, he hasn't really played with Led Zeppelin. That's like saying you played with Skynyrd after Ronnie Van Zant died, or with The Doors after Morrison died. That said, Jason played with the surviving members of what was once a band called Led Zeppelin, which is pretty bloody cool in and of itself. I would imagine just being around the remaining members of LZ makes Jason feel closer to his dad.

I know from mutual friends he has asked about me. If I were Captain, of anything, and picking Teams, Jason would be a quick pick. He is loyal, strong, thoughtful, loyal, deep-thinking, ambitious, witty, considerate, dependable, talented as fuck, and loyal. In the world he and I spin in, you often wonder what 'friend' means or if some other title needs to be created. So you use the word far too liberally publicly and maybe all to sparingly privately, maybe the other way around also. Bottom-line is, I have amazing list of -------------! (collected people who are international stars that I care about deeply, personally and respect and admire professionally). The joy, honesty, depth, safety, humility, affection, good-will, etc. I feel for and from them only 2-15 days a year is better in every way than every other day of the year. Think about that.

Bonzo was the best rock drummer.( period). But, Jason is damn good, and there is nobody alive that can play drums for Zeppelin as good as Jason can. Especially now that he has matured some. Plant has been the main holdout for a reunion all along. Plant has a complex now because he can't quite hit the high notes and because he can't perform with his shirt unbuttoned. What Plant should realize is, 95% of Zeppelin fans are overweight and bald headed! He don't have to perform like he did 40 years ago. Hook up with Jason and do some gigs! Of course, Plant always had a shitty attitude towards their fans.

I have always thought Jason is a fantastic drummer and when I saw him live a few years back he was amazing .

I still miss Zepp so very much. I never got the opportunity to see them - ironically they had announced they would be playing Montreal on their upcoming tour and we were waiting for the tickets to go on sale when the news came through of John's death. Devastating.

Led Zeppelin was the best

No one beats bonzo... But one can be just behind him and that's jason.

[@ryvandertey6631]

Jason , never will be the same like BONZO !!!! Like father ,like son ,doesn't work in their case !!! BONZO was and still the best drummer in Rock'n Roll !!! PERIOD !!!!!

What I respect most about Jason is that he earned his way to where he is now! He could have gotten pretty far just due to the fact that he is his Fathers son! Any up and coming band as well as a lot of established groups would have loved to bring him onboard, just for the recognition alone, but that wasnt good enough for Jason he wanted to do his Dad (as well as himself) proud and earn his stripes, so that's what he did and that is why he is an awesome drummer today!
