First Review In

Reviews of Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience have been in short supply so far. The Omega, a student newspaper for Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops BC may be the first full review.

Reviewing the Kamloops show last Sunday, the tours third, Eric Zimmer concluded it was "a true tribute to one of the most well-known, respected bands of all time."

The review gave some detail about what fans will see when the Jason Bonham Led Zeppelin Experience comes to their town:
The band continued to pump up the crowd and when they played “When the Levy Breaks” the crowd rose to its feet and got loud. As a tribute to his dad, this song began with Jason telling the crowd that though the drum beat sounded simple enough, it was actually quite tricky because there “was a certain groove my dad had when he played this song that just can’t be matched.”

The song began with an audio track of John Bonham playing the drums while the band played along live on stage. About halfway through the song, Jason, who hadn’t been drumming up to this point in the song, started drumming.

Here's a clip of When The Levee Breaks from last night in Edmonton
