Flashback: Led Zeppelin’s Final Concert With John Bonham

By Andy Greene

Andy Greene

By the summer of 1980, Led Zeppelin knew they had to make some rather serious changes to avoid being dismissed as dinosaurs from a distant rock & roll past. The rise of punk and New Wave had made the sort of stadium spectacles they invented seem cliche and pompous, so when the band consented to a 14-date European tour for June and July they decided it was time to strip everything down. Unofficially, they labeled it the “Cut The Waffle” tour. 

Robert Plant Slams Idea of Zeppelin Tour: ‘I’m Not Part of a Jukebox’

Over the past decade, many parts of their show had become highly ritualized, from John Bonham ‘s epic “Moby Dick” drum solo to Jimmy Page’s violin bow theatrics during “Dazed and Confused” to John Paul Jones’ ethereal keyboard intro to “No Quarter.” For the 1980 tour, those three show-stoppers were taken out. Still, they couldn’t fathom doing a show without standards like “Stairway To Heaven,” “Kashmir” and “Whole Lotta Love,” which all stayed in the set.

The stage was also radically stripped down, with many of the lasers, smoke bombs and giant screens of recent tours completely absent. The band even got haircuts and wore less garish clothing, occasionally even sporting skinny New Wave ties. MTV was still a year away, but it was apparent that a seismic musical shift was occurring and Zeppelin were determined to find a way to survive. 

Many shows on the tour were recorded, but nothing was professionally filmed. The only surviving footage was shot by amateurs on Super 8. Here’s audio from the group’s final concert with the original lineup, taped July 7th, 1980 in Berlin, Germany. They opened up with “Train Kept A-Rollin'” – a number they’d been doing since their earliest gigs in 1968 – and they end with “Whole Lotta Love,” their 1969 breakthrough single. 

About two weeks before this last show, at a gig in Nuremberg, Bonham collapsed three songs into the set and the concert was called off. The rest of the tour finished without incident, but the drummer’s alcoholism was spiraling completely out of control. He died on September 25th, 1980 after drinking approximately 40 shots of vodka in a single night.  

‘They Play Nice’: Inside the Tensions and Tumult at ‘Queer Eye’

Trump’s white house was ‘awash in speed’ — and xanax, brit turner, drummer for blackberry smoke, dead at 57, lindsay lohan confirms a 'freaky friday' sequel is (for real) in the works.

Led Zeppelin had already put tickets onsale for a fall North American tour at the time of Bonham’s death. There were rumors they were going to carry on with a new drummer (much like The Who did after Keith Moon’s death two years earlier), but they were squashed in December when the band announced their break-up.

It’s impossible to know how long Led Zeppelin would have survived had Bonham lived, but the 1980 tour made it pretty clear they were not quite ready to call it quits.

The Day Led Zeppelin Played Their Last Concert With John Bonham

The original members of Led Zeppelin performed together for the final time on July 7, 1980 at Eissporthalle in Berlin, Germany. The concert was the last scheduled stop on a 14-date European tour in support of the group's most recent (and ultimately final) studio album, 1979's In Through the Out Door .

Trouble had been circling the band in previous years, with John Bonham and Jimmy Page both struggling with alcohol and drug addictions.

Led Zeppelin had been forced to stop after just three songs on June 27 in Nuremburg , when Bonham was rushed to the hospital after suffering what was reported as food poisoning but rumored to instead be the result of a blackout.

As with the European jaunt, a North American tour scheduled to begin in October was to see the band trimming some of the excess soloing and pageantry of previous expeditions. But on Sept. 24, after reportedly drinking 40 measures of vodka during a 12-hour period on a rehearsal day, Bonham went to bed at Page's house and was found dead the following morning.

A few months later, on Dec. 4, 1980, the group issued a statement declaring they would be breaking up as a result of Bonham's passing. The surviving members have reunited only a few times since then, including short sets at Live Aid in 1985 and the 40th anniversary concert for Atlantic Records in 1988. More recently, they performed a full-scale show on Dec. 10, 2007, in London that was captured on Celebration Day , a concert film released in 2012.

Countdown To The Top 5 Moments Of The 1980 Tour

By Old Man June 21, 2019 in Led Zeppelin Live

There was a recent thread titled something like, "Picking On Page 1980." OK. If we're going to pick on Page for some of 1980's lesser moments then I think the band as a whole deserves a thumbs up for some of 1980's shining moments. The 1980 tour, overall, included most of Zep's best stuff from Led Zeppelin I to ITTOD. The 1980 tour brought back two of Zep's greatest numbers that were glaringly lacking on the 1977 tour - Black Dog and The Rain Song.

It is worth restating that I am an American that is 51 years old, as these words are typed, and I know someone who saw the Berlin show as a 20 year old GI in the US Army. You'll never convince this man that it wasn't the greatest show he ever saw.

Top Five Greatest Attributes of the 1980 Tour

5. Led Zeppelin in 1980 - This was Led Zeppelin's small contribution to the 1980's. In my book that in itself deserves respect.

4. John Paul Jones - Jonsey had it going on for the 1980 tour. I dig: that short combed back hair, that white dress shirt, that bass that looked like an axe, and his new sympathizer. It was the new decade and Jonsey was ready to rock. JPJ definately proved himself on this tour!

3. The Overall Set Lineup - I have already been through a good bit of this in the intro. Zep put together most of the best of the best of 12 years for the 1980 tour.

2. Train Kept A Rollin' - I dig this! The 1980 version of Train is a true head banger. Led Zeppelin never walks on stage gently and the 1980 tour was no exception. I have never really seen any comments on the board about this and to me that is a shame.

1. All My Love - I've never been that big of a fan of Led Zep III or ITTOD but on the 1980 tour All My Love steals the show. It steals every show from this tour that I have heard. It's like somebody snaps his fingers and calls you to attention.

4. His new "sympathizer" was not a highlight for me. It added some cheese to the songs.

3. Setlist was not great. Rain Song, Hot Dog and All of My Love are the weakest songs in the entire set and add nothing special to the Zeppelin live experience for the 1980 tour. White Summer was a disaster and did not showcase the James Patrick Page we know and love.

2. Love Train Kept a Rollin'. The Dortmund version always gets me fired up!

1  Strange number 1! Page is clearly not enjoying the song live evident by his half-arsed solos! No flair or excitement added to the live version. Very boring. Bonzo is phoning it in for this song as well.

Led Head I want to thank you for your reply. I enjoyed reading your reply. This proves that even among the true hard-core Zep fans that people can have very different opinions.

I still stand by my list.

We agree on Hot Dog! Hot Dog is one of the very few Zep songs that I can say I don't like.

I do hope to get your thoughts on what I am about to say below.

I have always felt that the 1980 tour over all had a good bit to offer and was very enjoyable. I have come to feel like my views on this are the minority opinion. I am also going to push the envelope and say that over time I have come to feel like there is a faction among the hard-core Zep fans that feel that the '80 tour had nothing to offer and that it never should have happened.

I have always been a fan of the 80' tour as most of the shows are good and a handful are downright excellent. Sure there are a few stinkers (mostly due to Page) but mostly they were good shows. The one exception I have is with Jones synths, the technology was not yet there to reproduce accurately the sound of a Mellotron so those songs (Kashmir, Rain Song) in particular sound thin and odd. Outside of the synths, the sound was good and Jimmy's tone on this tour was excellent as well.

Also, the sub-par shows were a combination of Page's poor playing, and Robert & Bonham's apathy as evident by their delivery. Bonham was also having stomach issues which impacted his playing as well.

What most do not realize is if you assemble a "best of" show from the tour you will have one amazing show with the best versions ever played of many of these songs. I will go to my grave knowing, IMO, the version of WLL from Berlin is hands down, one of my favorite versions and Heartbreaker from Rotterdam is also amazing.

I have assembled and shared a Best Of 1980, and I know several other Zep fans have done so too. There's some good stuff in those 14 shows, but IMHO they were good but not great. If Bonham (and Page) could've held it together I'm confident they would've continued to improve as they rehearsed in August and September in advance of the planned U.S. tour - but the band captured on those soundboards from Europe is still in the process of trying to gel again, iMHO.

That said, if I were to choose a Top 5 moments from that tour, I'd choose, in no particular order:

  • The 18-minute, one-of-a-kind Whole Lotta Love from Berlin - a new kind of WLL freak-out that showed the band could still improvise and surprise like nobody's business.
  • Train Kept A-rollin' - here I agree with the OP; it was a great decision to add that back into the set after 11 years without it. Frankfurt is my favorite version.
  • The cover of "Money" with Phil Carson at the end of the Frankfurt show. It's slow and incredibly heavy - quintessential Zep.
  • Trampled Under Foot from Frankfurt (and also Zurich) - full of energy, very different from the Zep of '75 but just as good in its own way.
  • Black Dog from Dortmund - this 1st show of the tour is all over the place, but that's because they are full of energy and roaring out of the gate, and Black Dog is perhaps the best, relatively compact showcase of that energy, maybe the most energetic five minutes of the entire tour.

You forgot "Trampled Under Foot" from Berlin.

And any number of "Achilles Last Stand" would make my Top 5 1980 moments over "Black Dog". I was tired of "Black Dog" by 1980 and it sometimes sounds like the band was, too. "Black Dog", "White Summer", and "Rain Song" should have been nixed from the set in favour of "The Rover", "Wanton Song", "Ten Years Gone", and "Fool in the Rain".

Thanks! I'll have to take another listen to Trampled from Berlin. I really like the version from Frankfurt but it's been a long time since I listened to the full Berlin show, so I'll check it out.

RE Black Dog, I totally hear you on that - overplayed without a doubt, and I agree with you that it would've been no loss had they ditched it from the set. But I do really like the version from Dortmund, so given what they did play, it is a highlight for me.

I can't agree with the nixing of The Rain Song, but I very much agree with you that White Summer should've been dumped from the '80 set, not only because it was a dissonant note of self-indulgence the band were supposed to be removing from the new streamlined set, but also because Page simply couldn't play it properly at that point. Ditto for Hot Dog - if memory serves, Rotterdam is the only show where he nails the solo in that track.

I also agree that The Rover and/or Wanton Song, plus Fool in the Rain would've been great in the set (particularly as replacements for Black Dog and Hot Dog). But I don't know that Page could've pulled off Ten Years Gone in his 1980 condition.

The Black Dog's I've listened to so far sound better than they did in 1975. Fool In The Rain wasn't even an option live in 1980 unless you wanted a real blunder. Hot Dog and All My Love were played because they were touring to promote their latest album, and you play songs from the album when you do that. The songs sounded great live when Page was coherent and Hot Dog still beat the hell out of those ear wrecking boogie jams during No Quarter. JPJ was possibly the weakest link in 1980 imo. Page was trying to steer the set back to pure rock and roll and that clashed heavily with Jones' wonky synths. I do love his piano work on the Stairways though. The Rain Song surely sounded dated by 1980, but I think it could've worked well as the lead in for Kashmir. I still think Trampled Underfoot is the highlight of 1980.

5: Train Kept A Rollin: Love the 1980 versions of this track, so raw and aggressive, I rock tf out every time 4: All My Love: say what you will about it live but its unique to this tour and I dig the outros a lot so I wouldnt trade it 3: Kashmir: I know Im in the minority but I like the synthesizers on this song, but Im sucker for anything that sounds distinctly 80s so Im biased. The song sounded heavy as hell even on the soundboards. 2: Whole Lotta Love: Whether its Brussels, Vienna, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Munich, or Berlin you cant go wrong. 1: Achilles' Last Stand: My favorite Zep track, and when they were on for this song man they were ON. There's lots of unique little flourishes and changes Jimmy played on this tour for ALS that sound nothing like from 77 or 79 and I dig em a lot.

List of Led Zeppelin concert tours

led zeppelin concert tour 1980

From September 1968 until the summer of 1980, English rock band Led Zeppelin were one of the world's most popular live music acts, performing hundreds of sold-out concerts around the world.

Throughout the late 1960s and 1970s, Led Zeppelin made numerous concert tours of the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe in particular. They performed over 600 concerts, initially playing small clubs and ballrooms and then, as their popularity increased, larger venues and arenas as well.

In the early years of their existence, Led Zeppelin made a concerted effort to establish themselves as a compelling live music act. As was recalled by bass player John Paul Jones :

[Led] Zeppelin was a live band and that's how we got our reputation. The press hated us in the early days. Our only way of promotion was to play a lot of live shows, especially in the UK. It used to spread by word-of-mouth.

However, though the band made several early tours of the UK, the majority of Led Zeppelin's live concerts were performed in the United States, which was settled on as the primary foundation for their fame and accomplishment. In 1969, for example, all but 33 of the band's 139 shows were performed in the U.S., and between the years 1968 and 1971 they made no fewer than nine tours of North America. "It felt like a vacuum and we'd arrived to fill it", guitarist Jimmy Page once told journalist Cameron Crowe . "It was like a tornado, and it went rolling across the country." After touring almost incessantly during its early years, Led Zeppelin later limited its tour appearances to alternating years: 1973, 1975, 1977 and 1979.

From the early 1970s, the commercial and popular drawing power of Led Zeppelin was such that the band began to embark on major stadium tours which attracted vast crowds, more than they had previously performed to. During their 1973 tour of the United States , they played to 56,800 fans at Tampa Stadium , Florida , breaking the record set by The Beatles at Shea Stadium in 1965. Similar crowds were drawn on Led Zeppelin's subsequent U.S. tours, and they continued to break attendance records (on April 30, 1977 they played to 76,229 fans at the Pontiac Silverdome , Michigan , a world record attendance for a solo indoor attraction). It is for these reasons that Led Zeppelin, as much as any other band or artist in this era, is credited for helping to establish what has come to be known as stadium rock . Many critics attribute the band's rapid rise as much to their tremendous appeal as a live act as they do to the quality of their studio albums.

Led Zeppelin also performed at several music festivals over the years, including the Atlanta International and the Texas International Pop Festivals in 1969, the Bath Festival of Blues in 1969 and the next one in 1970, the " Days on the Green " in Oakland, California in 1977, and the Knebworth Music Festival in 1979.

Characteristics

Led Zeppelin's reputation as a compelling live act is often attributed to the tight understanding and musical chemistry achieved between all four group members, combined with a shared willingness to try new things on-stage, which resulted in dynamic, unpredictable performances. As is noted by Led Zeppelin archivists Dave Lewis and Simon Pallett:

Led Zeppelin live was an extraordinary animal. From the very beginning no two performances were alike. Such was the creative spark between the four that the basic structures of their songs were repeatedly reworked, extended and improvised on, making their studio counterparts almost unrecognisable.

Led Zeppelin have been described as the kind of group that actually rehearsed on stage, experimenting with the reaction of the audiences to new material and letting the pieces mature through the live experience. Several tracks from their albums were debuted on stage well before their official release on vinyl . Jimmy Page himself has said that most of the band's songs were designed for live performance.

Every show we did was different. You never knew when you went onstage what you might do by the end of it ... Once a song was recorded, and it went into the set, it began to mutate. The whole improvisational aspect, the riffs coming out of the ether ... it was a magical vehicle collectively soaring into the stratosphere. And as more albums came out, the set got longer and longer.

In an interview he gave to Uncut magazine in 2005, Page elaborated:

The beauty of playing in the band was that when we went onstage we never actually knew what was going to go on within the framework of the songs. They were constantly changing. New parts would come out on the night. The spontaneity was on the level of ESP , which meant it was always exciting.

As described by Cameron Crowe, "[Led] Zeppelin live was a direct descendant from Elvis' early shows. Raw, direct, a reminder of when rock was young."

With such shared enthusiasm for playing a diverse range of musical styles coupled with their emphasis on extended improvisation, Led Zeppelin's concerts frequently extended for several hours. Recalled Jones:

Things got extended a lot to keep ourselves from going mad. Every tour we tried to cut it down, especially in the later years. We'd say we're only going to play an-hour-and-a-half. After a week, it would creep back up to two hours. By the end of the tour it's three hours!

After their 1977 tour of the U.S. — their last major tour — the band chose to abandon much of the "mystical" image that surrounded them up to that point. Instead members would wear ordinary street clothes during their concerts and the setlist was toned down by excluding long, elaborate solo numbers like Bonham's "Moby Dick" and Page's trademark bowed guitar solo accompanied by a laser show.

Recordings and live concert footage

Many of the band's shows have been preserved as Led Zeppelin bootleg recordings , which continue to be prized by collectors and fans. In addition, footage of Led Zeppelin concerts has been released officially on the band's 1973 concert film The Song Remains the Same , and on the Led Zeppelin DVD (2003). However, unlike other artists of the era such as The Who and The Rolling Stones , comparatively little official concert footage exists of Led Zeppelin. This is largely because of the successful efforts of manager Peter Grant to limit the exposure of the band to television appearances, in order to encourage fans who wanted to see the band to attend Led Zeppelin concerts. Of the few professionally shot concerts the band did, (excluding their July 1973 concert at Madison Square Garden on The Song Remains the Same ) six are today available to fans through bootlegs. These concerts include the last two nights of their five-concert run at Earls Court Arena in London in May 1975, their show in Seattle's Kingdome in 1977 and their two shows at Knebworth in August 1979. In addition to these, their Royal Albert Hall performance from January 1970 is available.

Concert tour chronology

Reunion concerts.

Since Led Zeppelin disbanded following the death of drummer John Bonham in 1980, the three surviving members of the band have reunited publicly on-stage on just a few occasions.

  • On July 13, 1985, at the Live Aid concert at JFK Stadium , Philadelphia . Tony Thompson and Phil Collins both played drums on all three songs. For the last song, "Stairway to Heaven", Paul Martinez played bass, while John Paul Jones moved to keyboards. The band was introduced on stage by Phil Collins as "my three friends" (not as Led Zeppelin). Concert programmes did not mention the name Led Zeppelin.
  • On May 14, 1988, at the Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary concert, with Bonham's son, Jason Bonham , on drums.
  • On January 12, 1995, at Led Zeppelin's induction into the United States Rock and Roll Hall of Fame . Their performance included five songs and variously featured vocalist Steven Tyler and guitarists Joe Perry and Neil Young . Jason Bonham played drums on the first four songs, while Page and Plant drummer Michael Lee played them on the final song, "When The Levee Breaks".
  • On December 10, 2007, at the Ahmet Ertegün Tribute Concert at The O 2 in London, with Jason Bonham again filling in on drums.

JASON BONHAM'S LED ZEPPELIN EVENING Announces Spring 2024 North American Tour

JASON BONHAM'S LED ZEPPELIN EVENING has announced a 12-city North American tour for this spring. The trek will kick off on April 16th in Montreal and run through May 3 in Portland, Oregon. Jason's son Jager Henry will provide support at all shows.

A Live Nation ticket pre-sale for select dates begins Thursday, February 29 at 10 a.m. local time using the code ENERGY. General ticket sales start Friday, March 1 at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster .

Jason Bonham spent nearly a decade touring as JASON BONHAM'S LED ZEPPELIN EXPERIENCE before changing the band's name to JASON BONHAM'S LED ZEPPELIN EVENING . Bonham later explained that the switch was prompted by a request from the LED ZEPPELIN camp, who wanted to use the "Experience" name for a project involving the archive of ZEP live recordings.

JASON BONHAM'S LED ZEPPELIN EXPERIENCE was formed in 2009 to pay tribute to Bonham 's father, legendary LED ZEPPELIN drummer John Bonham , who died in 1980 at the age of 32. "It was meant to be part of my way of expressing my love for music and expressing myself with a tip of the hat to my father," Jason told Mixdown in a 2017 interview. "Soon after doing the 28 shows that we did with an orchestra, everyone said, 'You're not going to stop now, are you? You haven't been here, you haven't played there…' And so I said, 'As long as you guys want me to do it, I'll do it.' It's really fan-based. It's not us and them; it's about love for LED ZEPPELIN , and that's how it's grown, as a very honest, natural, fan-based show. You guys all knew him as Bonzo ; I knew him as dad, and there's a great interaction."

Jason launched JASON BONHAM'S LED ZEPPELIN EXPERIENCE two years after taking part in LED ZEPPELIN 's one-off performance at London's O2 Arena tribute concert for friend and Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun . The rare live set, which saw Jason behind the drums in place of his late father, was released in 2012 as "Celebration Day" .

He told the Chicago Tribune about JASON BONHAM'S LED ZEPPELIN EVENING : "We're not LED ZEPPELIN . We are fans. We love the music. We give it 150 percent energy and time to make it as good as we can make it to give people that feeling and make people go back to their youth.

"I never wanted it to be we are just playing music. It had to be personal with stories to tell people what Dad was like at home. It's nice to know that so many people love hearing that music played in a live environment."

The performance will include LED ZEPPELIN favorites as well as deep cuts.

"The hardest thing is picking the songs," Bonham told the Chicago Tribune . " "There's more deeper songs — 'In The Light' , 'Friends' , 'Four Sticks' — songs that never got played live and never made it to a ZEPPELIN show. The list could go on for the more obscure ones that fans like to hear. Of course we still do 'Kashmir' , 'Stairway To Heaven' and 'What Is And What Should Never Be' . We started doing 'Dancing Days' , 'Houses Of The Holy' and 'That's The Way' . This show is one of the most fun things to do because I get to play all this great music in front of people that really appreciate it."

Zeppelin to Elton: John Ford Coley recalls career, England Dan, before Naples concert

A classically trained pianist, he's opened for everyone from Led Zeppelin to Three Dog Night and began as a jazz fusion musician.

Yet most know John Ford Coley as one half of the smooth, or yacht, rock duo with fellow Texan England Dan, or Danny Wayland Seals. Together, the duo churned out hits in the 1970s including "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" and "Love is the Answer."

Coley discussed his musical partner, 50-year career and more before he performs two shows Feb. 22 at TheatreZone in Naples.

Opening for Led Zeppelin

Coley and Seals both grew up in Dallas and eventually began performing together. They formed a psychedelic rock band called Southwest F.O.B. (Freight On Board) and had a hit, " Smell Of Incense ."

The band became popular in Texas, especially, and opened for bands including Three Dog Night, Paul Revere & the Raiders and even Led Zeppelin.

“We went down to Houston and played with them and came up the next day and played with them in Dallas," Coley said of Zeppelin.

Unfortunately, Zeppelin band members kept to themselves and he never did meet them.

But he did become friends with many other bands including members of Three Dog Night, who were in their heyday in the early '70s with hits like "Joy to the World," "Black and White" and "Old-Fashioned Love Song."

Coley also recalled the time they played with Elton John , whose audience that night was unhappy with the British pop icon because he didn't play "Border Song" on the tour promoting his then-newly released 1971 album "Madman Across The Water."

“He said, 'I’m tired of it. I’ll pick it up again,' ” Coley remembered Elton John telling him.

England Dan and John Ford hit the big time

England Dan and John Ford Coley moved to Los Angeles, recording two albums including a 1971 hit, " Simone ," that was a hit in other countries including Japan but not in the U.S. A&M Records released them.

The duo continued to perform and eventually struck pop-rock gold in 1976 when they recorded "I'd Really Love To See You Tonight," written by singer-songwriter and Mississippi native Parker McGee. The song reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for two weeks and made it to No. 1 on Billboard's Easy Listening Chart.

Their follow-up hit, "Nights Are Forever Without You," was another chart-topper. The pair would continue recording together for a few more years, with other hits including "Love Is The Answer" and "We'll Never Have To Say."

A few more hits followed, including " In It For Love ," and the duo split in 1980 after each had embraced the Baháʼí Faith . Coley would return to Christianity in later years.

Final conversation with England Dan

Coley called it a "hard split" when they broke up, met up again in 1983 then did not talk to Seals until years later, after he was diagnosed with a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Their final conversation was in 2009.

"The night before Dan passed away, I had been trying to get a hold of him," Coley said. "And Dan called me and it was just Dan and John."

What can Naples audience expect at John Ford Coley show

The concert will include the hits, he said, and he'll also share some interesting stories from the music business.

“I love to hear people laugh," he added.

And audiences often are surprised to hear him play Bach or Beethoven on the keyboard, he said, adding: "People are going, the boy can actually play!”

Coley also will remind those attending that songs he'll play may bring back memories of a long-ago romance.

“I normally tell people that the chances are pretty good that the person that came with you tonight may not necessarily be thinking about you with one of these songs," he said.

'It was a much freer time'

Coley remembered the '70s as unique, especially for musicians.

"We didn't have the incumbrances of families and big jobs," he said. "It was just a much freer time so you have much more great memories built around it.”

It also was a special era musically, some would argue the golden decade of pop and rock.

“Everybody just came out and did what they did," he said. "It was an exciting time. It was really a magical time, it truly was. What was the most captivating to all of that was the melodies.”

Reflecting on his career, Coley said early on he used rejection letters as motivation and pasted them on the wall.

"I‘d say, 'Yeah, just watch this.' Persistence rally pays off," he said. "You’re driven and you keep going."

JASON BONHAM'S LED ZEPPELIN EVENING Announce North American Tour Dates

Jason Bonham, son of legendary Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, has announced a string of "Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Evening" North American dates in April and May. Tickets available at livenation.com .

led zeppelin concert tour 1980

April 16 - MTELUS - Montreal, QC 19 - Casino Rama Resort - Rama, ON (with Jager Henry) 23 - Uptown Theater Minneapolis - Minneapolis, MN 25 - Burton Cummings Theatre - Winnipeg, MB 27 - Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - Edmonton, AB 28 - Grey Eagle Event Centre - Calgary, AB 30 - Orpheum Theatre - Vancouver, BC

A lot of talented children have probably been asked by a parent to entertain family and friends, maybe in the living room, maybe sing a little, play an instrument. No big deal and a good way to get used to performing for others. But when Jason Bonham was a small child and got called in to entertain, the family friends he played his drums for could be anyone from Jimmy Page to some of the guys from the group Bad Company. That's what happens when your father is drummer John Bonham, one of the original members of the legendary rock band Led Zeppelin.

At the age of only five, Jason could play the drums, at least a scaled-down set of them, with skill. When he was 17 he was a member of the band Air Race. The group signed a record contract with Atlantic Records, recorded one album, and opened for big names like Queen, Meat Loaf, Ted Nugent, and AC/DC. John Bonham died in 1980, but Jason, who has marked a few places in music history himself, has stepped in from time to time to help keep his father's memory alive.

In 1988, Jason took his father's spot in the televised, first-ever Led Zeppelin reunion at the Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary concert, which included Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones. Later that year, he went on to tour with Page and recorded the album Outrider with him.

By 1989, he completed the album The Disregard of Timekeeping, in his new band called Bonham. One of the tracks from this first effort, "Wait For You," earned him a gold record. By 1992, with partners like Canadian vocalist Daniel MacMaster, guitarist Ian Hatton, and bassist and keyboardist John Smithson, Bonham finished another album: Mad Hatter.

Jason teamed up with greats like Paul Rodgers, Slash, David Gilmour, Jeff Beck and others in 1993 to work on a Tribute to Muddy Waters album. The record's success brought a nomination for a Grammy Award. A year later, Jason, along with Rodgers and Slash, appeared at the memorable Woodstock II. That same year, he recorded a new album, Peace 4 Me, in his group now known as Motherland with Marti Frederksen on vocals.

In May 1990, Jason married Jan Charteris, in Stone, Kidderminster in a wedding reception that included a jam with Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and John Paul Jones. Jason represented his father when Led Zeppelin was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in January 1995, with his sister Zoe by his side. He soon put together another solo project which culminated in "In the Name of My Father - The Zepset" cd, which featured the songs of Led Zeppelin. Proceeds from the album went to charity. The album followed up with When You See The Sun.

The Healing Sixes soon caught his attention and decided to tour and record them the Indiana-based band, from 1999--2003. In 2001, Jason appeared in the film Rock Star which starred Mark Wahlberg. The band in the movie, Steel Dragon recorded the songs featured in the movie and the soundtrack.

Following an album with Debbie Bonham, the younger sister of John Bonham, Jason was invited to drum for hard rock group UFO. In 2006, he also recorded with Joe Bonamassa.

Jason starred with Ted Nugent, Evan Seinfeld (Biohazard), Sebastian Bach (Skid Row) and Scott Ian (Anthrax) on the VH1 reality tv show, SuperGroup, in May 2006. The musicians formed a band called Damnocracy for the show, during which they lived in a mansion in Las Vegas for twelve days and created music. Most recently, Jason has performed and recorded with Foreigner.

On December 10, 2007, Jason played drums in the most anticipated concert of all time - the Led Zeppelin reunion at London's O2 arena with surviving members Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Robert Plant.
