John Bonham — British Musician born on May 31, 1948, died on September 24, 1980

John Henry Bonham was an English musician and songwriter, best known as the drummer of Led Zeppelin... (wikipedia)

Drumming was the only thing I was ever good at.
There were times when I blundered and got the dreaded look from the lads. But that was a good sign. It showed I'd attempted something I'd not tried before.
Not everybody likes or understands a drum solo, so I like to bring in effects and sounds to keep their interest.
People who don't take care of their drums really annoy me.
My nerves before a gig got worse; I had terrible bad nerves all the time. Once we started... I was fine.
