John Bonham's Final Days

John Bonham's Last 24 Hours - The Day John Bonham Died
John Bonham was and remains the greatest, most influential Rock Drummer of all-time and best known as the drummer for Led Zeppelin. Describing the style of John Bonham's drumming instantly conjurs up visions of the thunderous power he created. Esteemed for his speed, power, fast single-footed kick drumming, distinctive sound, and feel for the groove, his contributions to rock music were revolutionary, and his talent unmatched and irreplaceable.
So it came as no surprise that when he passed away suddenly, Led Zeppelin disbanded. In 1995 he was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Led Zeppelin. In 2016, Rolling Stone ranked him first in its list of the "100 Greatest Drummers of All Time".
In the history of classic rock, no one hit the drums harder than Led Zeppelin’s drummer, John Bonham. Sadly, though, Bonham came up in the era when rockers were as destructive as they were productive. Others like Keith Moon, the drummer for The Who, beat themselves up as much as they beat up their drum kits. It was the time when hotel rooms looked like war zones after bands left them.
But all this history aside, how did Bonham pass away? And why did the British-born artist known as “Bonzo” live only to the age of 32?
The year 1980 was a sad one for rock fans. Not only was it the year John Lennon was murdered, but it was the final year of Bonham’s life, as well. While Bonham’s death at 32 years old was ruled an accidental one, the real cause was addiction and alcoholism.
On September 24, 1980 Bonham was picked up by Led Zeppelin assistant Rex King to attend rehearsals at Bray Studios for a tour of North America, to begin October 17th in Montreal, Canada; it was the band’s first tour since 1977. During the journey, Bonham asked to stop for breakfast, where he drank four quadruple vodka screwdrivers.
Then, at rehearsals, those around noted Bonzo continued to drink, not giving his body (or liver) a moment to rest. After rehearsals, which ended late in the day, the band went back to guitarist Jimmy Page’s house where Bonham fell asleep. And though someone left him on his side, he still vomited. Incapacitated from the amount of alcohol he drank, Bonham never woke up. He choked and died on his own vomit and was declared dead on September 25, 1980.
The investigation into his death showed that Bonham had more than a liter of alcohol in his system, some 40 shots. And while no other recreational drugs were found in his system, Rolling Stone reported that he was getting over a heroin habit and he was taking some other medication for his anxiety and depression.
