Tragic Death
Sadly, drummer John Bonham died on September 25, 1980. The band had rehearsed the day before, but Bonham had way too much to drink at Page’s house and then passed out. They put in on his side in the spare bedroom. Tragically, he died after choking on his vomit and Led Zeppelin disbanded. Apparently, they found the equivalent of forty shots of vodka within Bonham’s system.
