On the heels of a successful tour that brought multiple sell outs, Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Evening/JBLZE is back with another round of dates to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Led Zeppelin classic, Physical Graffiti. The latest 22-city trek is billed as An Evening With JBLZE Celebrating 50 Years of Physical Graffiti.
The show made headlines as JBLZE has been performing all the songs from the album that fans have been clamoring to hear including classics such as “The Wanton Song” and “Kashmir” live alongside deeper cuts like “In The Light” and “Boogie With Stu.” The evening is also made up of other Led Zeppelin favorites including “Good Times Bad Times,” “Whole Lotta Love” and of course “Stairway To Heaven.”
The tour kicks off on August 1 in Omaha, NE and wraps August 31 in Vancouver, BC. Along the way, the tour will make stops in Denver, CO (August 8), Napa, CA (August 16), Bakersfield, CA (August 23) and Seattle, WA (August 30) to name a few markets.
Public on sale for tickets will begin on Friday, May 30 and more information on all tickets and performances can be found at jasonbonham.net.
At the time of the first tour announcement, Jason Bonham had this to say: “This is my favorite Led Zeppelin album of all time. Being able to celebrate it the way we are planning on this tour is something I am extremely excited about. I can’t wait for people to come out and see these shows and celebrate this extraordinary record with us. My goal is to play at least 50 shows to commemorate 50 years…And don’t worry there will be plenty of other songs that you also love played that night.”

About Jason Bonham:
Jason Bonham always finds himself at home behind the drumkit. From this spot, he has anchored the tempo for a myriad of the most legendary artists of all-time. It’s the place where he initially realized his destiny as a kid. It’s a tried-and-true safe harbor for the expression of his purest emotions. It’s a direct conduit to his late father and Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham. Following stints with Airrace and Virginia Wolf, he handled drums on Jimmy Page’s gold-certified Outrider. During 1988, he notably accompanied Page, John Paul Jones, and Robert Plant behind the kit for Led Zeppelin at the Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary Celebration Concert. Beyond helming solo projects such as Bonham and The Jason Bonham Band, he appeared in Rock Star with Mark Wahlberg and Jennifer Anniston. Plus, he lent his talents to Foreigner, Little Steven, Joe Bonamassa, and Paul Rodgers. He held down the drums for Led Zeppelin’s 2007 reunion at the Ahmet Ertegun Tribute Concert—which set the Guinness World Record® for “Highest Demand for Tickets for One Music Concert.” The evening spawned the Celebration Day concert film and multiplatinum album, debuting Top 10 on the Billboard 200, selling three million-plus copies, and garnering a GRAMMY®. Other notable projects have included Black Country Communion (Bonamassa, Glenn Hughes, and Derek Sherinian) and California Breed (Hughes and producer and guitarist Andrew Watt). He joined Sammy Hagar and the Circle with Van Halen’s Michael Anthony and Vic Johnson. In 2010, he introduced Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Evening (JBLZE), packing venues coast-to-coast and supporting everyone from Heart to Kid Rock. A spectacle of top-flight musicianship, arresting visuals, mind-blowing lighting, and emotionally charged storytelling, Rolling Stone hailed its “set of Led Zep gems that were strikingly faithful to the originals,” while Billy Joel personally handpicked JBLZE to open a handful of dates. Ultimately, Jason remains forever at home on the drums.
