And yeah, Keith Moon was insane. He's the dude that OD'd and died during a show, right? |
I caught a few minutes of that last night. I'd like to Tivo it so I can fast forward through all the shite and just watch the good parts. Luckily since it was on VH1, I know they're replay it about 60 gazillion times before the end of the month.
Keith Mood did OD, but I don't think it was during a show. He was on some medication to curb his alcohol intake. If I understand correctly, the medicine was taken and if alcohol was consumed, it made you violently ill. So he just started ingesting gobs of the pills trying to get stoned. |

I just dont know why paint it black is such a popular song now. I can see why during vietnam when it came out, but its really not that amazing of a song.

I thought we were talking about the Who, not the Rolling Stones!  |
For the record, I dont care for the Rolling Stones much either. Except ironically enough for PAINT IT, BLACK. Great song

That's what I have as well. I respect them, but the best of is all ever felt like I needed.
