Jason Bonham Never Dreamed Of Following In His Father's Footsteps

Now sober for 14 years, he admits it was a challenge to prove himself against his father's reputation. "At some point I got sick of people calling me Bonzo junior," he explains. "But now I'm older and wiser, I'm just honoured to be mentioned in the same breath." more on this story Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
