1976 - Keith Moon Trashes Hotel Room
1976 - Keith Moon Trashes Hotel Room

A little less than two weeks shy of his 30th birthday, Who drummer Keith Moon trashed a hotel room in Miami on August 11, 1976.

Moon ran around the hotel in "a very agitated state," according to a description an eye witness gave a newspaper at the time. Police were called to subdue him, but Moon later claimed to have little memory of the event, saying "I felt dizzy...and I just blacked out."

Less than two years later, on September 7, 1978, Moon would die after taking more than 10 times the recommended dosage of a sedative prescribed to him for alcohol withdrawal.
