You flatter him. Some may consider he was just criminally insane.

I was at the Cow Palace performance, the show started out ok, but then I saw the double pass outs. After the first pass out, there was a short time out. Then with a cheer from the audience, Keith came out crabbed Pete’s hand like a brother, got back to his kit, and the band was off again, but slowly Keith started to lean on a large gong behind him, clearly out again. A roadie pushed Keith from behind and Keith’s head hit the snare drum with a loud thud! That was it, he was out cold. The roadies picked him up like a sack of potatoes, and took Keith way, with the band leaving the stage too. In just a few seconds later, Pete came back out and said to audience “Are there any drummers in the house?” With that statement, a bunch of hands shot up in the air, my dummer was sitting next to me and he didn’t put his hand up. Anyway, they picked a fellow up out of the audience, and the guy had the time of his life, performing live with The Who, and he was pretty good too. It was all in the local papers the following day, with a photo of the stand in drummer The Who pulled to the stage to play with them finishing up the show. Great stuff. 😂

I actually admire Roger for trying to pretty much be the straight one in the band. It's probably why he's in great shape even today. The story of John Lennon's "Lost Weekend" would be another excellent story to tell in the future.

James, dear boy, thank you so much for documenting Mr Keith Moon and The Who. There's not enough talk of them on here. They're my favorite band of all time. He was certainly an unrivaled lunatic, but he was really an unbelievable drummer when he was healthy, and The Who have made some of the best conceptual albums in classic rock history. Not to mention their live act. Aggressive, powerful and loud! There was a point where it was widely acknowledged and accepted that they were the best live band in the industry. In the words of Alice Cooper, "maybe 50% of what you heard about me and other rock stars is true, but literally 100% of what you heard about Keith Moon is true." Rest in peace, Keith. Long live rock!

Keith Moon sounds like a mad bomber who also just happens to play the drums during his down time.

I saw Keith play four times with the Who. I thought he was the greatest drummer in the world. But I had no idea what he was like off-stage. It wasn't till after his death that I read about what a genius lunatic he was. No one played drums or lived like Keith. Thanks for this great video.

Moon once hijacked a bus on Alexandra Parade Melbourne Australia. I believe he’d been visiting with Ian ‘Molly’ Meldrum who lived nearby. It seems Moon caught a bus into the city and told the driver he was hijacking this bus to Cuba. I can’t imagine an Australian bus driver doing anything but roar with laughter at this.

Keith Moon and I were friends in the 70s for a while, I use to drink with him, I would never have known he had this wild side, he was always a gentlemen, he even helped to get a road closed in Battersea for our Family, still closed today in South London near their Studios. He love to tell jokes, and his favourite passtime were bar billiards. Never seen him do any wild things ever, so there were two sides , must be Bi-Polar.

53:45 - Can’t believe you didn’t tell the part of the story where they got a guy from the crowd who played drums to finish the set with them.

Heard some new stuff, I didn't know, so thanks 👍😁 Saw The Who in Rotterdam in 1975. John Entwistle playing extremely loud, blowing Pete Townshend away. Keith Moon joined the party, so we had a two hour rithme section concert. 😅 The best rockin rithme section I've ever heard. Cheers from the Netherlands. 👍💪😁

The Greatest drummer to ever hold a pair of sticks. No one can dispute that. I remember hearing years ago, some of his expertise could not be duplicated, not even with the help of a computer. Amazing. Rest in peace, Keith. 🌹 You will never be forgotten.

My Dad was lucky enough to see the High Numbers, the name of the band before the Who. Moon the Loon, unfortunately I've lived a life similar to him. Without the fame and money!!

Great video. As a drummer, Keith was a god amongst men. But his life WAS a tragedy. Apart from accidentally killing his friend, he didn't care who got hurt as a result of his behavior. He WAS a psychopath. It doesn't serve anyone to pretend otherwise.

I believe Pete said Keith would be diagnosed as bipolar these days but back then they didn't know.

Keith Moon was without a doubt the most unique playing drummer in rock n roll history. His style made absolutely no sense but it worked perfectly with the music he was playing. Some of his fills would start off time but land perfectly in time. Even his mistakes sounded great and added to the song. He never played a song the exact same way twice because it all came in the moment and didn't even like to practice much at all. He gave unique texture to the rhythm section that could only be matched by the late great John Entwhistle on bass. The two could weave a tapestry of rythm and sound that could only be described as controlled chaos. Just as Roger Daltry was the lead singer and Pete Townsend the lead guitarist, Entwhistle was lead bass guitarist and Moon the lead drummer. They were all soloists within the song structures. There has not been before or since a drummer whose style was/is as unique as the great Keith "Moonie" Moon.
