When Led Zeppelin heard that they were being honored, they invited Jason Bonham to be with them in the honorees section. He turned them down because he said that he had a previous engagement. Little did they know that the previous engagement was playing with Heart, to honor them.

He's crying. Stairway To Heaven is Led Zeppelin's Baby. Very Iconic. Led Zeppelin's journey was straight FIRE! Also they're missing their fourth man Bonzo and wishing he was there to get that love and honor. (Robert and John were very very close). Plus Bonzo's son Jason is like a little Bonzo who was born into their band and he's like their Dear Son too..in a way. Nostalgia, Love, Painful Loss and all kinds of emotions coursing through this moment for them.. So Robert cries..

how do you even know any of this, pure subjective speculation. YOU have never spoken one word to any of these men and have NO idea why he's emotional, Page is near tears as well.

The best remake of a song I have ever heard. Heart does this song justice and even brings a tear to Robert Plant's eye. It is incredible. Then you have Jason Bonham on drums, the son of drummer John Bonham who died many years ago when he was little. John always wore that style of hat. It is emotional to watch and gives me chills every time I watch it. Led Zeppelin are one of Heart's influences and to perform this was a huge deal for these incredibly talented women. THE KENNEDY CENTER HONORS is an event that honors artists from music, art, literature, movies etc. They bring on people who were inspired by them to speak or sing to them. Usually, the artists they are honoring are in the audience. So yes, that is Led Zeppelin watching them.

The 3 guys with the ribbons around their necks designates they are the honorees. Left to right the remaining members of Led Zeppelin is John Paul Jones, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page. The Obama duo was there as he was President when this happened. The bowler hats on the choir members is a tribute to drummer John Bonham who often wore that kind of hat.

The drummer in Led Zeppelin, John Bonham has died and Jason Bonham is playing in this tribute to honor the band and his father. It was a complete surprise to the band who had asked Jason to accompany them to this event. Jason had to decline because it was a surprise for them. That's the part in the video where Robert Plant stood up and pointed at Jason because he was surprised.

In 1978 the Kennedy Center presented it's first Kennedy Center Honors gala. The rainbow honor medal represents the large spectrum of performers in the arts. Dancers, singers, actors, playwrights, comedians, musicians, directors and producers have all been honored. Led Zeppelin, along with Dustin Hoffman (actor), David Letterman (late night host), and Natalia Makarova (ballerina) were honored in 2012. John Bonham's son Jason played the drums in this tribute to the band. His father wore the bowler hat that Jason had on so in tribute to John the chorus also wore bowler hats. I worked the Kennedy Center honors from 1992 to 2020 and was lucky enough to see this performance. One of the best experiences I had working in that building. You'll also see Debbie Allen, Stephen Colbert, Herbie Hancock, Jimmy Kimmel, and Yo Yo Ma in the audience.

This was the edited for time version from CBS, there’s another longer version that includes the other verses and also has better sound quality. The entire LZ tribute segment was hosted by Jack Black and other songs were performed by the Foo Fighters, Kid Rock and Lenny Kravitz, but Heart’s performance was outstanding. Jason Bonham is their drummer John Bonham’s son, John passed away at an early age and pretty much ended LZ, except for random performances together over the years since. Jason is Robert Plant’s godson. BTW Heart was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame about six months later.

It is the members of the band. They're being honoured at The Kennedy Centre. The rainbows are the medals they received. The drummer Jason Bonham is the son of Led Zeppelin's original drummer, John Bonham, who's signature hat was a bowler. At the end, Jason looks up the the sky thinking of his father who died young.

Good observation about the mixing on Ann Wilson's voice. It's all too common for vocals to get buried in the background. Surprised you didn't know about the Kennedy Center Honors program and the rainbow ribbons but life goes on, right? It's good.

The 3 guys with the rainbow necklaces, which are the awards they just received are the 3 remaining members of the group Led Zeppelin, the 4th member the drummer, John Bonam, died in 1980. The drummer with Heart was the son of John. He was actually playing his father’s drum set. When Ann sang the word Heaven at the very end you notice that Jason gazed up to the heavens in a loving jester to his father.

Yes, that's what was happening. Zepplins Career was being honored by Kennedy center. Those were medals, with rainbow colored necklaces. There were many artists there to play there songs that night. This was the finale. The drummer is the son of Zep drummer John Bonham, who died in 1979. It was an emotional night for the remaining three band members. N no worries, you are doing an excellent job of learning and absorbing all this new info. Btw, please react to Zep doing stairway live at Madison Square Garden. It's incredible. Also, Ann n Nancy idolize Zeppelin....even though both active through 79s. Heart has done many Zep covers. .... Robert plant doesn't like covers of his music, but loved the way Ann does it...🙂

This is the Kennedy Center Honors. Led Zepplin, the gentlemen in the balcony, are being honored by Heart performing one of their iconic songs. The rainbow ribbons hold a medal. All honorees are given this medal.

This is one of the greatest tributes ever. Another is hearing Roseanne Cash performing Tennessee Flat Top Box ( a song her dad wrote about himself ) at the memorial for Johnny Cash.

Led Zeppelin from left to right: John Paul Jones (Bass), Robert Plant (Vocals), Jimmy Page (Guitar). At the drums playing is Jason Bonham, son of the deceased drummer Jon Bonham.

Yes, by Led Zep. Have you watched the whole thing? It was epic. You have to watch it. The Kennedy Centre honors Led Zeppelin. Lenny Kravitz and a lot more. The "rainbows" are medals. Yes, it's a tribute to Led Zeppelin and they're watching it. The drummer is the son of John Bonham, who was their drummer. They also went on tour with him. There's an amazing CD of a concert.

If you haven't watched the Original Led Zeppelin, Stairway to Heaven........ You must watch this Original Video with them on Stage in the 70's !

No one could do a better cover than Heart. Anne was 62 at the time and can still sounds amazing. This is just an awesome performance and brings tears to my eyes. Heart does like to play Led Zeppelin’s music over the years. They were so touches by Heart’s performance along with the whole production. Jason Bonham on the drums with the bowler hat was honouring his dad who had passed away years earlier. The bowler hats worn are a nod to Jon Bonham. Love your reactions. Thanks for sharing.

Just about anybody but Ann and you wouldn't even hear them with the orchestration they have behind her. When they do the tribute for Heart (you know it's coming) they should probably get Floor Jansen to sing Alone.

Best live tribute, ribbons are given to Kennedy Center honorees. The top performers who had life long lasting influence over music and entertainment. This performance is heart wrenching and fantastic. Yup that’s what you are watching.

"Kennedy Center Honors" honors various artists. They invite others to come and perform their songs as a tribute to them. All who are being honored are up there in that booth, the wear the ribbon necklace things. Those 3 they keep showing are Led Zepplin. their drummer had passed and his son is who's playing the drums here.

Led Zeppelin tribute. The drummer is the son of the late drummer who died and that was the end of Led Zeppelin. Robert Plant is the lead singer who was crying. The rainbow is given to the honorees.

❤❤❤ Idk I just thought the rainbow ribbons ment that they were the ones getting honored. I don't know though 😂. The drummer is actually the son of the late bandmate who was their drummer that died in 1980 . From what I understand.
