A famous anecdote relates that during the mid-1980s, an intoxicated phoned 's hotel room in the middle of the night asking where "my drummer" was. reportedly got up, shaved, dressed in a suit, put on a tie and freshly shined shoes, descended the stairs and punched in the face, saying: "Don't ever call me your drummer again. You're my fucking singer!"

Het dynamiet laat me denken aan Keith Moon. Uiteraard van The Who.

quote:

Moon led a very destructive lifestyle. He laid waste to hotel rooms, the homes of friends and even his own home, throwing furniture out of high windows.

Along with his drum sets, Moon's infamous (and favourite) calling card was to flush powerful explosives down the toilet, detonating and ultimately destroying scores of toilets around the world. It has been estimated that his destruction of toilets and plumbing ran as high as $500,000 and his repeated practice of blowing up toilets with explosives led to Moon being banned for life from lodging at several hotel chains around the world, including all Holiday Inn, Sheraton, and Hilton hotels, as well as the Waldorf Astoria. Moon became so notorious for this practice that when Nick Harper was asked about his childhood memories spent around The Who, his first recollection was, "I remember Keith blowing up the toilets."

According to Tony Fletcher’s biography, Moon’s toilet pyrotechnics began in 1965, when he purchased several dozen cherry bombs. Eventually, Moon would graduate from just Cherry bombs to taking out toilets with Roman candles and M-80s. In extreme cases, Moon even used dynamite, his explosive of choice, to destroy toilets. “All that porcelain flying through the air was quite unforgettable," Moon recalled. "I never realized dynamite was so powerful. I’d been used to penny bangers before.” In a very short period of time, Moon developed a reputation of “leaving holes” in bathroom floors, completely annihilating the toilets, mesmerizing Moon and enhancing his reputation as a hellraiser. Fletcher goes on to state that “no toilet in a hotel or changing room was safe” until Moon had burned through his supply of explosives. Unknown to many people at the time, Moon was often able to cajole John Entwistle into helping him blow up toilets. In a 1981 interview with the Los Angeles Times, Entwistle confessed, "A lot of times when Keith was blowing up toilets I was standing behind him with the matches."

During one incident between Moon and hotel management, Moon was asked to turn down his cassette player because The Who were making "too much noise." In response, Moon asked the manager up to his room, lit a stick of dynamite in the toilet, and shut the bathroom door. Following the explosion, Moon informed the startled manager, "That, dear boy, was noise." Moon then turned the cassette player back on and proclaimed, "This is The Who."

On a different occasion in Alabama, Moon and Entwistle loaded a toilet with cherry bombs because they could not receive room service. According to Entwistle, "That toilet was just dust all over the walls by the time we checked out." The management brought our suitcases down to the gig and said: "Don't come back..."

The acts, though often fueled by drugs and alcohol, were his way of expressing his eccentricity, as well as the joy he got from shocking the public. In Moon's biography, Full Moon, longtime friend and drum technician Dougal Butler, who tended Keith's drum kit observed: "He would do anything if he knew that there were enough people around who didn't want him to do it."

quote:

"Seances were part of the scene and one night I found myself chasing around the house with a broken chair leg in my hand. I'm not a violent man by nature, but imagine yourself lying in bed, reading, at about three in the morning, when an axe head smashes through your door, disappears, then smashes again and again, making matchwood of it. I leapt up in my underwear, and went for him as he disappeareddown the corridor. I found him hiding in a darkened part of the house and stopped mercifully short of clubbing him to death. I was in such a rage after he'd reduced my bedroom door to splinters; the result, presumably, of me refusing to lend or him a crucifix, something they'd both been pestering me about earlier. I wanted nothing to do with the seance they were conducting in the next room. It had apparently taken control of their senses - or maybe mine! That night might have been the end of the band..."

Tijdsperiode is heel aardig, maar niet de goede band. Alhoewel Page ook het nodige in die richting schijnt gedaan te hebben, ja.
