Jason Bonham Had Bucket-List Experience With Phil Collins

(Classic Rock) Jason Bonham has described playing In The Air Tonight as part of Phil Collins' band as a bucket-list experience. He doesn't know whether he'll be part of the former Genesis frontman's future plans - but he's already content with his three-week stint last year.

The drummer, who replaced his late father John for Led Zeppelin's 2007 reunion show, was the only new band member when Collins staged a rehearsal run before coming out of retirement.

Bonham tells Billboard: "I had an amazing time. It was an honour to be chosen by one of my real heroes. Other than my dad I would say Phil is my guy to go to.

"I've been a huge fan since Abacab, and then of course his solo stuff. My wife kept telling me, 'Don't keep looking for approval. He's hired you - he knows what you can do. Just give him your best.' I had such a good time with it." Read more here.
