Re:TKAA on VH1classic tonight...
I have a doubt: was Keith Moon so fucked up before his
death?
Many people said Keith could not play the drums
anymore... but it sound very strange to me, because
nobody forget how to drum. And Keith, he did so
incredible things with his drum kit, sometimes he played
so fast with the double bass pedal that make me
think: "oh, fuck thrash metal drummers"... It's hard to
think he could not play anymore, is it really true or is
it just a urban legend? Plus: I think Had Enough and
Empty Glass have a good drumming.
