Jason Bonham Joins Paul Rodgers On Tour
Rodgers names BCC drummer amongst his touring band
Rodgers has announced that drummer Jason Bonham will be joining him on tour. Says Rodgers: "Jason played with Joe Perry and myself in LA recently and was so hot that I asked him to join us for the UK tour."
Also in the band the familiar faces of Howard Leese (Heart guitarist), Lynn Sorenson (bass) plus some surprise guests (inlcuding Joe Perry in London)
The tour is in support of Rodgers' forthcoming new solo album, which is due for release later this year, but you can expect plenty of familiar material in the setlist: "Developing the set-list is always a bit of a balancing act but in the UK it will be Free heavy for the fans."
Support on the tour comes from Joe Elliott's Down N Outz.
