To "disband" is to break up an organized group; to cause the break up and end the functioning of an organized group. The word is even more apt when applied to a musical group - a band.

Disbanding is not the same as saying the members of the group can't keep going on individually. They can "reband", they can soar on their own, they just can never go back to what they were.

The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not "get over" the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.
~Elisabeth Kubler-Ross & David Kessler, On Grief and Grieving

“The main aim is to play some rock ‘n’ roll and have some fun.”

~ Jimmy Page
