1. I hear that Elvis is available.

2. Didn’t he choke on his barf after eating a dog?

3. Well organized,
   It looks like they will need to settle for London’s greatest NEW singing sensation instead of the old:

4. Well is he coming?

5. Don’t lets forget the Olympics were organised by the labor party, an organisation more dumb and stupid than the liberal party of Canada about on the level of the NDP

6. Ask Keef Richards. He’s immortal.

7. Okay, but T.S. Eliot is still reading the opening proclamation, so it’s no biggie.

8. Peter O’D wins. They won’t get fooled again. Yeaaaaaaaaa!

9. If there’s an afterlife,Keith is up there smiling and shouting:
   ” Yes,tell the wankers I’ll be there,I’ll do it for free”.

10. I hear Jim Morrison wants to do lead singer.

11. Or they could get the Living Dead.

12. If they can’t get Moon, I hear Frank Zappa was their backup choice – seeing how the olympics correspond with the 40th annaversary of Zappa’s “200 Motels” which was filmed in London and featured Moon(their first choice)
    See It doesn’t take much to think like an olympic organizer thingie making 6 bills a month.

13. Best. Drummer. Ever.
    By a freakin’ mile.

14. Maybe they can get Sid Vicious to play bass for the event…..

15. I’m afraid Mr. Moon won’t be joining you this evening.

16. Has he learned to play Harp ?

17. Maybe they were looking for ‘moonies’ (the cult of goonies from the 80’s), nothing like a ‘groove’ of ‘moonies’ to get the beat goin’ on and drum up some business.
    I like your analysis Pissedoff @ 7:00 PM.

18. We shouldn’t expect any better from the country that went out it’s way to slam the Vancouver Olympics.
    They might want to give Amy Winehouse a call while they’re at it too…

19. Says a lot about the state of rock and roll drummers these days; if the best they could get is a dead guy….

20. keith is busy driving the magic bus

21. Security has their bobbies on the lookout for Osama Bin Laden, Jack The Ripper and The Hunchback Of Notre Dame.

22. I agree, best ever. Happy Jack on the extended Live at Leeds. he plays the melody on drums.

23. If the WHO manager was smart knowing they are so stupid, he should have picked up some old crusty rummy and just said he was Keith Moon.
    “What do you mean you didn’t know Keith was a blind, drunk, one armed drummer”?
    Money, money money, lots of public cash falling out of the Socialist Olympic tree.

24. I’m not sure which surprises me more. The fact that your regulars appear to remember Keith Moon, or the fact that you linked to Rolling Stone magazine.

25. It certainly would be a spectacular, one-off event, a positive coup.

26. Keith Moon died, before he got old.

27. what’s a magazine?

28. Keith Moon and Amy Winehouse: that’s a deadly combination. And if you must have an AK-47, why not an AK-47 with chimpanzee?

29. Brought to you by participants in a recent Twitter feed that I heard about on the local Classic Rock FM station (Q107) that had a ton of ‘evolved’ young people tweeting about the fact that they thought ‘The Titanic’ was just a fictional movie. Sorry for the run-on sentence. Twitter gives me the runs.

30. Well if Moon won’t do it they could try to get Jerry Garcia. He’s a hippie, right?

31. Given the state of music today Keith is probably Gratefully Dead.

32. Thanks Knight 99, I’m multi-cultured out for the next 2 years!

33. coach at 9:56 PM
    He11, I even read yer post!!!!

34. He died in a tragic gardening accident.

35. Keith Moon cannot make it? No problem, we’ll get John Bonham….

36. Black Mamba said: “Ask Keef Richards. He’s immortal.”
    That’s ridiculous. Everybody knows Keith Richards is animatronic.

37. They learned from their mistake.
    They won’t get fooled again.
