Short answers, pulled from the story.
Keith John Moon was born on the 23rd of August 1946 at Central Middlesex Hospital in northwest London. He grew up in Wembley with a restless imagination and a particular fondness for music and The Goon Show.
In April 1964, aged seventeen, Moon auditioned for the Who as a replacement for Doug Sandom. He claimed he could play better and nearly demolished the drum kit during the set's second half before Pete Townshend hired him to replace Sandom.
Moon flushed powerful explosives down toilets starting in 1965 when he purchased a case of five hundred cherry bombs. Andrew Neill and Matthew Kent estimated his destruction of hotel toilets and plumbing cost as much as three hundred thousand pounds.
Kim Kerrigan became Moon's first serious relationship when they started dating in January 1965 after she saw the band play at Le Disque a Go! Go! in Bournemouth. On the 4th of January 1970, Moon accidentally killed his friend driver Neil Boland outside the Red Lion pub in Hatfield Hertfordshire while driving drunk.
On the 6th of September Moon attended a film preview hosted by Paul and Linda McCartney and returned to their flat where he watched The Abominable Dr Phibes. He took clomethiazole tablets and was found dead the following afternoon with thirty-two pills in his system including twenty-six undigested.
