      He’s hilarious no doubt. I just became a Who fan couple of weeks ago, so I really don’t know much about the band members except for the few songs I’ve heard from their music catalogue. Wish I had discovered their music sooner.

    What a fucking shame he left us so soon. I never met the man but for Christ's sake he seemed like a good guy sober!! The sad thing is that he knew he had to change his drunken ways and had he made it just a little longer I feel he would have accomplished that!!! I miss him!!!

    Keith may have had a bad reputation, but he was one of the nicest, and most humble people you would ever meet. Its sad he had such a bad drug and alcohol addiction as it gave him a bad name publicly, but he was a very caring and generous human being, and all he wanted to to make those around him happy and have a laugh.

    •  3 роки тому +1

      @Jake Haynes Interesting.. My dad was a Roadie for the Doors.. Thats how he met Keith many times.. He was a roadie from 67-73.. He was Ray's Personal Roadie and specialized in the Piano and the Organ. He would fix and tune for him. My dad was at the Isle of Wight concert which I think was in 1970 if I am not mistaken and he said it was one of the greatest performances he had ever seen. And he had been to Woodstock and so many other incredible British and American Rock Festivals.

    Keith would have been such a huge draw in the 80s chat shows. An absolutely hilarious raconteur.
    Such a shame he died at only 32. He was made for comedy. In fact a few more days further into September 1978 he was due to fly out to Tunisia to film several parts for The Life of Brian. A sorely missed character!

    The funniest thing about him is he's usually as calm as the sea but seems completely bonkers. It's the rdiculousness of the situation. Lord knows if he would've lived longer what Hollywood would do with him.He needs someone to be able to catch all the craziness much like Robin Williams did later on. This seems like a complete send up. Moon could be very dry with his humor as well.

    • @danielcook4712
