ONE WEEK AWAY! Yes, you heard me right. Only one more week until we head to the incredible BONZO BASH NAMM JAMM 2014. We had a blast last year and it seems the Bonzo Bash is definitely one of my top highlights from NAMM. You better get ready for another great lineup.
If you are not familiar with the Bonzo Bash, it is the ultimate celebration for the ultimate drummer, John Henry Bonham of Led Zeppelin. It is presented by NATAL and Marshall and is a night filled with amazing drummers playing their favorite Led Zeppelin song. It is a complete evening of Led Zeppelin jams and this year will be a crazy one! It will be hosted by Mike Portnoy, Carmine Appice and the show creator, Brian Tichy.
