Organisers
of this year’s London Olympics have reportedly invited the Who’s Keith
Moon to perform at the closing ceremony, not realising drummer has been
dead for 34 years.
According
to the London Sunday Times, the band’s manager Bill Curbishley
responded by email saying, “Keith now resides in Golders Green
crematorium, having lived up to the Who’s anthemic line ‘I hope I die
before I get old’. If they have a round table, some glasses and candles,
we might contact him.”
Moon passed away on September 7, 1978 at the age of 32 after overdosing on prescription medicine.
