Keith Moon (ish!) drum solo

Me with my new shiny Moonie kit! This is just a muck around and a bit of fun, i will put something of better quality up very soon. I am under no illusions of being as good as Keith, or even a tiny bit close...just playing with his spirit! This is just a tribute to my hero and inspiration...the greatest of them all...MR KEITH MOON!

For those who are interested drums are Premier mixed Mahogony and Birch shells. Drum sizes -

Two 22" X 14" Bass drums

Three 14" X 8" rack toms

Two 16" X 16" Floor toms

14" X 5" Ian Paice signiture snare (Ludwig 400 on its way!)

Drums wrapped in mirror chrome finish

Rogers Swiv o matic tom mounts

Note - This kit was not brought from a shop! They do not make these drums anymore..not even the Pictures Of Lily re-issue kit is as close to Moonies. The drums have all been sourced from ebay/gumtree (in various colours) and then handed over to someone to re-wrap the kit in chrome and put the Rogers Swivomatic mounts on. So if you want one of these dont ask where I brought it from, you need to find the bits and put it together yourself or find someone to do it for you. Thanks!

*****Thanks for all the nice comments on the kit, for those of you UK based Who fans if you want to see the kit in the flesh (and my Who tribute band Quadrophonia) please visit

SWEEEET KIT!!!!!! I have had close to 50 different kits and about 9 were premeir. always wanted to build a moonie-type kit. was going for the white set with 2 rows of toms. the ONLY part of this vid I would give a "thumbs down" is the zildjunk. moon & palmer are the reason im a HARDCORE pAisTe freak...Loved the 1 stick triplets, that's a great "muck around"

@MRCJCOLLINS The white kit will be my next project! To be honest moonie used both Paiste and Zildjians all throughout his career, the trouble is with the Paiste 602s moonie used is that they break easily, it would be ok if I had the Money Moonie had! The Zildjians I currently have are not really what I want, but having just brought a house I cannot afford to buy any new cymbals at present. Cheers for the comment my friend :-)

Thanks for the laugh! This is what happens when no talent kids have rich parents!!

[sgtcrag]

@OBAMAJUSTSAYNO HAHA! Your so funny. God my ribs hurt. Someone get this guy on TV.

And what makes you think I have rich parents???

[sgtcrag]

@sgtcrag I cannot believe a 44 year old goes around on you tube like a malicious child, writing such pointless imature things. If its all the same with you I'll go with the opinions of those who watch me, just a few thousand a year, who love what I do, and pay me well to do such. And of the other nice comments on here.

Oh and by the way my parents are not rich, its called HAVING A JOB. I suggest you get one if you want the things in life you desire. Peace dear boy.

sincerely one of the best drummers ive ever seen on youtube, and im talking seriously ive seen LOOTS of videos here on youtube, you rock man i love your Premier kit!

[sgtcrag]

@ellioteaston93 Cheers dude!!

[billyconnearly]

Fuckin' Love it mate!!!! never mind these arseholes like OBAMAJUSTSAYNO (he must've been up all night thinkin' that one up!) Your technique and humour - I love it when your mate comes out from behind the kit! - are definitely in the tradition of The Right Honourable Mr Keith Moon! VC and 3 bars! (The Rose & Crown, The Lion's Head and The Half Moon, Putney!)

NEXT: Ian Paste type solo?

[nkmcfrln]

@MRCJCOLLINS Keith played "Zildjunk" in addition to Paiste. Tell me I'm wrong. Why are Zildjians junk? They're one of the oldest companies in the world. Oh, I see that you've been told exactly what the deal was Keith and his cymbals. You're a follower.
