keith moon biography 2

[KIDAmnesiacBends]

Isn't that Steve Marriot at 4:12?

[cavernbirch]

theres abit of keith moon in all of us.

[discomadame]

@cavernbirch Yeah I hope so

[Chrisdrumz]

I'm glad Karl Green told the truth about Keith's 21st birthday and didn't spread the lie about the car in the pool.

[TehSxeNerd]

@Chrisdrumz he did drive a lincoln continental into the pool of a holiday inn

[Chrisdrumz]

@TehSxeNerd If he did it wasn't at his 21st b-day party.

[FUDCHOPS]

@TehSxeNerd

I'm sure ithat was a premeditated publicity stunt tho, was it not ! ?

[FUDCHOPS]

keith,...Sadly became a victim of his own publicity.

BTW Hes my Hero.....

[TehSxeNerd]

@FUDCHOPS no, roger daltry confirmed it in an interview on topgear, you should watch, its very interesting

[GeneralCambronne]

@TehSxeNerd it was a cadillac 

[spikester3612]

I love how Pete still smashes that last guitar after the big explosion. Thats called commitment.

[LaughingManic1980]

@spikester3612 That's called being pissed off because you incurred substantial ear damage.

[moggy1231]

the who opening for hermans hermits is like jimmy hendrix opening for the monkees.

[5jerry1]

@moggy1231 It's "Jimi," not "Jimmy."

[moggy1231]

I think its geoffrey rush who's narrating.

[PoppaBlue59]

It always broke my heart to see those fine guitars smashed up.

[solaranus]

@PoppaBlue59 yes

[RupertWaldron]

Is that John Peel narrating this programme?

[zemechanism]

@RupertWaldron Why yes, it is.

[MsFanmail]

i would have love to blow up a few toilets with keith how wicked that would have been.

[guitarnashelter]

i like the way they showed so much passion with their music, the violent instrument destroying is a culmination of tension and frustration

[JormaX]

HAHA I love the clips when their on the Helsinki-Vantaa airport in Finland! :D Pete with his yo-yo and repeating YES..YES YES YES! to the reporter:D

[LeBigMoneyShow]

You can tell Moon was a riot to be around. He reminds me of my childhood best friend.

[surfing636]

@9:36 look at Pete Townsends hair blown upward from the explosion. Around 9:24 the reaction of Roger Daltrey and John Entwistle is priceless!!!

[bigt0530]

Man that was the most hilarious thing. hes just laying there in national television aww aww awwwww

[bigt0530]

Man that was the most hilarious thing. he just laying there in national television aww aww awwwww

[Lucirmatacna]

esto es musica o bulla no tiene sentido

[trevgk]

I met Keith in "The Blue Moon", in Cheltenham and I've seen lots of drummers since. In my opinion, NONE were or are as good as Keith was at that young age. Today's musicians are crap by comparison, they are not hungry enough and get far more for putting in far less effort and that's not just drummers, all musicians today need to give more for what they get.

[beatlegirl456]

In 4:23, the couple there hugging, is that Pete?

[BobReidy]

Bruce Springsteen apparently saw the Who in Asbury Park on this tour.This was his first ever concert of a major act.

[BobReidy]

You could say that the Who were the first band that the show was just important as the music they played at their concerts.They where the predececers of bands like Kiss,Motley Cure and others like them.

[hallvardful]

This is one/or the best rock documentary I`ve seen so far! Keith was Keith and thank rock`n`roll for that!

[passarinho88]

simple as that the best band in the world allways and ever and the best drummer ever as well

[lockedabout]

i think all of them...john,pete,keith,even roger were very very talented ...i think without them, we were a few years from what music is today

of course best band in my opinion after beatles and pink floyd

[Juhlin95]

The spider, what a great bassist :D

[guitarded78]

john was smart enough to

stand there and think, you touch my bass you die, haha. one the best bassists ever

[semerkhetTER]

thunder fingers!

[guitarded78]

yea, of course. one of thee biggest bassists of that era, and one of the most remembered. even still, keith was one crazy bastard

[shinji1717]

oh man look at the tv host near the end of the video he's thinking wtf s wrong with these guys he probably tried to get the producers to never let them back on

[codlyman]

That's one of the Smothers Brothers - Tom, I think. That was a big, big show in its day - much like having your ass on American Idol now.

This appearance, more than any other, brought The Who into American living rooms, and put them on the map forever. Tommy Smothers knew exactly who they were and what he was doing.

[superlou1s]

The true rock n roll madman.

[BobReidy]

Kim was beautiful.

[Gibsonway]

xDDD when Keith blows up his kit it is the fucking best XDD

I don't think I've laughed that hard in a while. Entwistle just kinda...strolls off, Pete tears off the stage and then kinda wobbles back in to smash the acoustic. Everyone's faces are just priceless. I hope to do what Moon did if my band gets famous xDD

[baugergroup]

The narrator was the late great John Peel.

[jerichotpkbandit]

5:28 "With fireworks known as Cherry bombs, Keith blew up hotel doors and toilets wherever he went." LMAO...the guy sounds so calm and relaxed as he narrates about Keith blowing up toilets.

On another note, Wikipedia has a source that says Moon blew up $500,000 worth of toilets. How many toilets does one need blow up to destroy half a million dollars worth?

[ManilaSyndicate]

Keith's wife was cute.

The behind the scenes film is great.

[kewlpnay126]

no subtitute for the Legendary drummer ever!

[solidyahoo]

WHAT ABOUT RINGO?

[Kinsella420]

Ringo? RINGO? Wow what about Bonham, Neil, Love, Fucking Ringo LOL! LMAO! HA ha ha.... I needed that laugh...ringo!

[5jerry1]

@Kinsella420

The irony is, all these phenomenal drummers and percussionists cite Ringo as a major influence. He IS underrated.

[lucanotdeadlive]

keith moon

mitch mitchel

jhon bonham

they¡ rock==¡¡

[clavojhon]

yo soy keith monn.el mejor batero de la historia es el jimi hendrix de la bateria .ahhhhhhhhhhh

[tumadrexuxa]

keith moon is animal the one in the muppets

[ooOOKristAyiraOOoo]

Hmm, I read that there is no proof for that, but I want to believe that animal is a muppet based on keith, because I think is a good and a funny tribute for the best drummer.

[ThePrinzessinAshley]

Nah, it's Keith

[bryanmberman]

No. My whole argument is that you are as wrong as can be. Don't be upset because someone you don't even know beat you at a question you thought you won. You lost the argument... move on with your life.

[andrewkillen0726]

shamefully I was not arguing for Keith, I was asking you to prove yourself. I was arguing for truth... Which in this case seems to have been lost. see ya. won't be replying again

[acerb45666555]

man! Moon had Viking in him for sure! imagine him 1000 years ago! he'd charge the enemy ranks in a blinding fury!! his sword a whirlwind!

[critopams]

"For Keith Moon it was something simpler. It was jadfajlkjjo;ifjeaa..." WTF?

[laylaperry]

"For Keith Moon it was simpler. It was in his nature." haha

[critopams]

Oh, thank you. For some reason, I couldn't understand a word he was saying no matter how many times I repeated it. LoL I'm okay, now. :D

[EruRyuzakiLawliet]

XD Keith at the end: "OW!...OW! OW!!!" XD

[critopams]

ROFLMO That really was good. I hadn't noticed it before.

[samdearboy]

A hotelroom occupied by Keith moon  hahahaha what a fucking legend xD

[wrpd]

there's sex, drugs and rock n' roll...... and then keith

[ElGolpeatambores]

"My friends call me Keith... you can call me John"

Gotta love him

R.I:P

[DragonTheArtist]

LOL!! Sorry about all those deleted comments, I couldn't decide what to post.....& I got pissed about something that happened to him. Moon The Loon is the drummer god. ;~)

I've got WAY too many compliments fo Keith, & too much to rant about with my opinions on horrible things that occured to him & his bandmates,so I'll just leave it at this. XD

[royalcollage]

wtf did you write on my wall,who is palmface,you must have been well drunk Lol what was you drinking il take some

[ohshiite]

Looks like Smother Brother doesn't like when he smash's his shit!!

[semmaterry]

I couldn't sell my soul to be a great musician, but maybe to play like Moon I could

[piraterice]

Man the Who is the best ever

[prairiedale]

He died because he had ADHD.

[WHOareYOU1966]

u know nothing

[goldenpica]

I say, give an insecure man a license to be an asshole and eventually he'll get killed by his own ego.

I love The Whos' music but Moon like, Morrison, Cobain and so many others was killed by his own stupidity.

[Woody263]

Its not stupidity its rock and fuckin roll - yeah im deeply sad Moon died prematurely but he died a rock God

[thegirl44]

Keith could have drunk himself to death in a working class neighbourhood, gone to work at a factory, drunk, and fell into the machinery, stolen a car, whilst drunk, and ended up in jail.

Drums or no, something tells me that Keith always was, and always would be, Moon the Loon, regardless of where life took him.

[jimmorrisonmylove]

... "Townsend described destroying instruments as a destructive art form... For Keith Moon it was simple... It was in his nature!!!"

[thegirl44]

Weird association time:

Everyone saw the last movie incarnation of The Incredible Hulk? When the baddie asks Hulk if had any last words, and Hulk replied, "Hulk, Smash!" I got a total Keith visual.

[kimjay7779]

RIP keith! I allways thouht you were the best!

[awsomethingsmax]

That makes two of us pal!

[pat1954]

Saw the who at Birmingham town hall UK in 1969 ,my mate caught Kieth Moon's drumstick .God 40 years ago !!

[mrwelbourn]

did he keep the stick??

[dogma264]

what movie/documentary called

[Tapeduc]

I love keith moon. He never got tired of what he did. Whether it was destroying for shits and giggles, or touring, or making the most amazing fucking drum solo, he was always happy. And THE BEST DRUMMER EVER.

[PENDLE83]

Isnt this off the Amazing Journey DVD??

[anitasseo]

:MOONIE THE LOONIE :

gotta luv the man.

[ADS19922011]

The Who is amazing! The way they just smash everything....true classic!

[BrickUnit]

who is keith moons kid?

[slickskillet123]

according to this des barres bitch

she must have fucked every rocker

who made their way through LA. give

me a fuckin' break.

[bifftv1975]

where's the rest of this documentary?it's missing the times he had with oliver reed when they first met at olivers mansion.keith and friends flew in via helicopter and oli tried to shoot them down with a shot gun from his window.they became great mates but it dont mention anything

[nedasilyah]

Thank you very much for posting

[iamjohn89]

[TristanTheDrummer1]

"... and he just went on!"

[slickskillet123]

who has this cunt fucked ??

she's full of shit !!!

she's a name dropping twat !!!

[67675656565655656565]

sadly music today doesnt have exciting and interesting people like keith moon anymore.All we have now is a bunch of boring and generic faggots who are only in it for the money.Thats probably why rock is dead now.We need more keith moons and less john mayers in the music industry now.

[67675656565655656565]

thanks

[slickskillet123]

we need more moon and

less justin timbelakes !!!

[67675656565655656565]

dam straight i doubt people will give a shit about justin timberlake in a few years when his pretty boy good looks go.Also i doubt 30 years after he dies no one will be talking about him like they are with keith moon.Keith moon was a legend.

[slickskillet123]

hey,grandfather who is justin timberlake ?

he was a cancer on music way back when !!!

[67675656565655656565]

hahahahaha hey grandfather who is keith moon a rock legend who drove a rolls royce into a swimming pool and enjoyed trashing hotels.Yep that definetely sounds alot better.

[slickskillet123]

and what in the fuck is rap-hip-hop ??

it makes me shiver and the contents

of my stomach end up on the ground !!!

[BobReidy]

I agree 150%.

[slickskillet123]

@BobReidy and now we have the Beiber kid to deal with.Bloody Hell !!!

[BobReidy]

Pathetic.Him,Ke$ha,Lady Gaga and many other modern day musicians are horrific and the Who and all of the other ledgendary bands have to scoff at them.

[trevgk]

@slickskillet123 well said, and less of many others

[torpedodropkick]

Drugged up and drunk and wild drummer: a short term buzz.

[Mattycnw]

was it in his arm or leg? Must have been a small piece of cymbal embedded in him.... fuuuuck!!

[mynamehere1212]

arm, and yeah that had to hurt lol

[Stundek]

Keith Moon. Fucking Hell!!!

[wrsawy]

THIS IS F... BRILLIANT!!!

[willets101]

what the hell is amanda his daughter doing now then?!?!?!

[royalcollage]

amanda is now running an online drum store called soundattak check out her site ps she looks like her dad

[willets101]

oh kool kool does she drum^&??

[royalcollage]

not that i know of!!

[pattii55]

I went to the site, no mention of her, I think the mention of the store here was a sham to get hits to the drum site.

[dnicholls1]

Thats what i thought. I went on there no mention of her.

[orugnet]

asshat

[willets101]

wtf's that for!!

[orugnet]

oh crap sorry,i meant to say that to someone else,forgive me please!!

[willets101]

ye sure lol

[orugnet]

asshat

[smellyoldplopnamedfr]

you hear keith saying 'OW!' at the end (due to the flying symbol)

[Viznel137]

They were reading MAD magazine on tour!Perfect!!!

[beatlefied70]

Keith Moon is the man!!!! Cracks me up all the time! John Lennon, George Harrison, John Entwistle and Keith Moon need to be brought back to life!(and all other dead British musicians from that time).

[bigdaveupload1980]

can u imagine that? moon on drums, entwistle on bass, george on guitar and lennon on rhythm and vocals? that would be phenomenal

[wiggin12]

keith was to good for the beatles

[JormaX]

@bigdaveupload1980

wtf?! :D The Who were phenomenal!

[TheChiefsDude]

I think I'm becoming a Who fan.

[Halzston]

gawd i am so n love with keith.

[negrot12]

desde argentina...gracias the who

[adamat]

lol, i love the way pete ignores keith's bass drum exploding and goes and smashes up a guitar. proud to be british :)

[Fredrockroll]

Yeah!

But Pete said that made him permanently half-deaf or one ear.

[KeithManishOvErDoSe]

That was awesome!!!Thanks for posting!

[DigitalVidiot]

Very cool - thanks for posting. Keith was a very interesting character, and I enjoy watching the persona that he projected.......
