At the end of that tour the other three went home with 450k, Keith 50k, he did 400k worth of damage and didn't care. <br /><br />When you see Barbara Ann in KAAR that's the band trying to get him back in shape because he hadn't drummed at all in the years off and forgot how to play. <br /><br />I did a series on youtube called What If Keith Moon Had Not Been Taken Away? just do a search on it and check it out. <br /><br />If they ever do the movie I sure hope they keep it honest because Keith's life was very dark and sad, I believe when he accidentally killed his guard/driver Bolan he slid down a slope and was punishing himself and I do believe he committed suicide, 30 undigested Hemivevrin's in his stomach? 30? he was known for handfulls of pills, 6-7, not 30, and undigested means he took 40-50, that takes effort.
