2025 The Best of All Worlds Tour Announcement

Answering a fan’s social media question a few days ago, Jason Bonham revealed that his 10-year tenure with the Circle and last year’s Best of All Worlds tour band had come to an end. “Sammy has decided to carry on with Kenny,” Bonham wrote, referring to Kenny Aronoff, who filled in during the four Best of All Worlds shows in August when Bonham rushed to England to help care for his mother, who’d suffered a stroke.

“Sammy rang me awhile ago. He was asking about my mom, but then he said, ‘Y’know, I’m not gonna do much next year,’ blah, blah blah, ‘and I’m gonna go with Kenny.’ I was a little shocked, I must say. I’d be lying to you if I wasn’t a little sad, because we were on fire at the end of the tour. And I got a little upset. That was strange, after 10 years of being with him.”
