 Hi All

I trust that you are all keeping well.

Thanks to everyone who replied to me regarding 'John Bonhams Drum Kits' e-mail 
below, it was much appreciated and please let me know if anyone comes across 
any more info on his drum kits.

I see that there is a lot of 'bootleg' live footage of 'Led Zeppelin' out there 
including film and pictures, I was wondering if anyone had footage of the band 
recording in the studio be it film or pictures of if there was somewhere I 
could find studio footage/pictures or just general info on 'Led Zep' in the 
recording studio/locations.

I look forward to hearing from you and thanks in anticipation.

Cheers

Waynne

Hi Every one at FBO

I trust that you 
are keeping well.

I am a big 'Led Zeppelin' fan and especially a fan of 
'John Bonham' as I am a drummer myself.

Please could you help me out with 
pointing me in the right direction regarding 'John Bonhams' drum kits that he 
used when in 'Led Zeppelin'? 

I would really like to know every thing 
there is possible to know about his kits. I know that he used 'Ludwig Drums', 
what I would like to know is what series he used and from what periods to/from, 
what colour they were, when they were issued/given to him, what serial numbers 
they were and what size drums for all the live and recording/studio kits he 
used?

I am very interested in finding out any and all info
on his studio and live drum kits, especially the Ludwig Stainless Steel
kit and would love to see any studio pictures of 'Bonhams' kits, I have seen a 
lot of live shots but none from the studio.

This would be great if you can help and thanks in 
anticipation.

I look forward to hearing from 
you.

Thanks

Waynne
