| This is my page all about Keith Moon. Well, I love him. He's the best drummer of all time. And to top it all off, he's gorgeous! Loads of people say nasty stuff about him because they just don't know him, they don't understand his personality and they're basically just jealous that he had so much fun during his short life and they know how boring they are. To all Moon-haters, I only have one message for you... Listen and Understand. Listen first of all to his amazing drumming. My Generation is one of the best examples of this, especially at the end when he just goes wild. Apparently, The Who didn't realise what kind of a drummer Keith was until an occasion shortly after he joined when they did a gig and there was a power failure. All Pete, John and Roger could think of doing was turning to Keith and yelling "DRUM SOLO!" Keith obliged, and by the time the power was back on, Pete, John and Roger were just stood staring at him in awe. Then listen to all of the mad stuff he did, and realise what a funny guy he was. Listen to everything that ever happened to him, listen to all the jokes he cracked, and you'll know how wonderfully comedic, yet heart-wrenchingly tragic his life was. Listen to his solo album Two Sides of The Moon and you'll learn what his musical tastes were. Much the same as mine, I'm proud to admit! Then maybe, just maybe, when you've done all that, you'll understand. You'll understand WHY I hold him in such high esteem, you'll understand WHY there's absolutely nothing that could ever make me contemplate the very notion of Kenney Jones being a better drummer than him, nothing that could make me think that the people he played jokes on didn't deserve it. There's nothing that could possibly come between me and this amazing affinity I have with Keith. I understand him. It was like I was drawn to him, only to realise "Wow, this is the man of my dreams, but wait, he's been DEAD for years, but... should that matter?" I don't know. I really don't know. Does any of this make any sense? Keith never really made any sense when he was alive so I suppose that this page about him shouldn't make much sense either. Here are some pictures of the man himself. Yes of course I have hundreds more, but these are my favourites! Enjoy! |
