Today (8/23) is Keith Moon’s birthday. Although he passed away nearly 39 years ago (9/9/78), he’s still considered by many as one of the greatest drummers of all time. Moon wasn’t just well known for his musical skills, he was also known for his insane antics – trashing hotel rooms, blowing up his drums, driving a limo into a pool. Alice Cooper tells a few Keith Moon stories that you might not have heard before.
