My Names John Bonham, I'm

My Nerves Before A Gig Got Worse; I Had Terrible Bad Nerves All The Time. Once We Started... I Was Fine.

I've Always Been Obsessed With Drums. They Fascinate Me. Any Other Instrument - Nothing. I Play Acoustic Guitar A Bit. But It's Always Been Drums First And Foremost. I Don't Reckon On This Jack-of-all-trades Thing. I Thing That Felling Is A Lot More Important Than Technique. It's All Very Well Doing A Triple Paradiddle - But Who's Going To Know You've Done It? If You Play Technically You Sound Like Everybody Else. It's Being Original That Counts.

My Names John Bonham, I'm A Drummer And I'm Potty About Cars.

Drumming Was The Only Thing I Was Ever Good At.

I Don't Consider That I'm Particularly Influenced By Anyone Or Anything. But When I Started Playing, I Was Influenced By Early Soul. It Was Just That Feel, That Sound.
