September 13, 2018, 5 years ago
Drum legend Mike Portnoy (Sons Of Apollo, The Winery Dogs, ex-Dream Theater) has checked in with the following:
"Last week marked the 40th Anniversary of the death of one of my greatest drum heroes of all time: Keith Moon. I just stumbled across this drum cam footage that I had but never shared... so this seemed like a good time to pay tribute to my hero.
This is myself, Billy Sheehan and Paul Gilbert (3/4 of my Who Tribute Band Amazing Journey) along with Chas West (filling in for Gary Cherone) doing the Live At Leeds Version of 'My Generation' at The Ox & The Loon show in LA back in 2015. I was also incredibly honored to have been presented the Keith Moon Lifetime Achievement Award at this show, which was so incredible for me given that Keith is such a hero to me.
Enjoy this fun tribute to a drummer that was so incredibly reckless & unique and so missed by yours truly."
Sons Of Apollo recently had to cancel all remaining summer festival appearances.
Said the band: "But there's also good news! We've added four German shows near the end of the European tour. Tickets are now on sale."
