"My dream is to do the hologram drum solo with dad next to me... That is my goal, my dream and we're just trying to figure out everything that we can do with this show."
Jason has already been speaking to special effects experts about the possibility of a drum performance with the hologram. But according to Jason collecting sufficient footage might prove to be difficult:
"There's so much more that I would love to do but obviously I am limited somewhat as far as the footage that I have and the quality of the footage. These guys were operating in the 1970s and it’s not at all like it is today where everybody can record everything with a phone or digital camera. Back in those days if you had a camera that could record video you were well off and to be able to be proficient enough to edit or work with it or process it and release it was a whole other matter. It wasn’t as instant of a thing as it is now."
Jason believes most of the people who come see him and his Led Zeppeling tribute band are true diehard fans rather than casual fans who just know Black Dog or Stairway. So they try and put across songs that appeal to the diehards, some of which are songs that Zeppelin never did live like Four Sticks and Fool In The Rain.
Watch Jason perform the famous drum solo Moby Dick as part of the Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience show:
Tupac Shakur hologram
A concert hologram of the late Led Zeppelin drummer wouldn't be the first. Digital Domain Media Group created a Tupac Shakur hologram at 2012's Coachella Festival, bringing the rapper "back to life" onstage after he had been dead for sixteen years.
About holograms
Holography is a technique which enables three-dimensional images to be made. It involves the use of a laser, interference, diffraction, light intensity recording and suitable illumination of the recording. The image changes as the position and orientation of the viewing system changes in exactly the same way as if the object were still present, thus making the image appear three-dimensional.
