    Dougie Sandom was already out of the band when this happened. Several
"sit-in" drummers were used between him and Moon. (One of them was from
"The Fourmost" who recorded Pete's "It Was You"). The destruction of the
drum kit always seems to be exagerrated, too, since apparantly the worst
damage was a broken hi-hat pedal.
