The Who has been performing as a band for decades, and Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant once said that he found this sad. Led Zeppelin broke up in 1980 after the death of drummer John Bonham. While the band has sporadically collaborated, they have not toured since the 1970s. Plant likes it that way and wouldn’t want to continue on like The Who.

In 1980, Led Zeppelin was gearing up for a tour in the United States. On Sept. 25, however, all plans halted when Bonham died. He had been drinking heavily the day before and died of pulmonary aspiration in his sleep.
“Don’t it make you feel bad
When you’re tryin’ to find your way home
You don’t know which way to go?”
