Keith Moon and Oliver Reed

http://dangerousminds.net/comments/incredible_friendship_oliver_reed_keith_moon

When Oliver Reed met Keith Moon their lives changed forever. Together Moon and Reed formed a bizarre, unholy and incredible friendship that brought them both to the edge of madness and ultimately lead to their untimely deaths.

Their friendship began during the making of Ken Russell’s Tommy, as Lee Patrick recalled on olliereed.co.uk:

I was living with Keith Moon at the time and they were just about to start filming Tommy, Keith and I had spent all morning driving Soho’s sex shops buying dildoes, rubber stuff etc for Keith to use as props for Uncle Ernie.

At lunch time Keith decided to drop into Ken Russell’s office and mentioned that he’d like to meet Ollie before they started filming, Ken immediately got on the phone to Ollie and suggested a meeting, Ollie invited us to Broome Hall afternoon so we were off to Battersea Heliport where we boarded a helicopter to take us there. We arrived on his front lawn shortly afterwards, unfortunately frightening his pregnant horses, Ollie was standing there in the doorway holding 2 pint mugs whisky for us. He was a charming host and invited us to stay for dinner.

Dinner was served on a huge medieval oak table and before we started eating Ollie jumped up and grabbed two large swords which were hanging on the wall, giving one to Keith. The two of them ended up having a sword fight up and down the table, that was the appetiser! After dinner Ollie invited us down to his local pub, The Cricketers, where we all got very drunk, with Ollie and Keith undressing, each one trying to outdo the drunken antics of the other, they were so alike that it was no wonder they became great friends.

Later on, back at Broome Hall, Ollie insisted we stay the night, we were up for that, expecting to be sleeping in a magnificent bedroom, however, his entourage took up all the furnished bedrooms and we were led out to the stables!! Keith said we would pass up his invitation and go home, but Ollie would have none of it, and next thing we knew he was standing there pointing an old shotgun at us, so we said OK we’ll stay, we ended up sleeping on couches in the living room!

At the time of their meeting, in the mid-seventies, Reed was Britain’s most successful and highest paid film star, something he was always keen to let any scandal-mongering press know:

‘I’m the biggest star this country has got. Destroy me and you destroy the whole British film industry.’

He had also been voted the sexiest actor alive and told Photoplay magazine:

‘I may look like a Bedford truck, but the women know there’s a V-8 engine underneath.’

Though he also claimed the film world wasn’t where his ambitions lay:

‘I have two ambitions in life: one is to drink every pub dry, the other is to sleep with every woman on earth.’

It was disingenuous, for Reed was serious about his acting and was “always word perfect and unfailingly courteous to colleagues and technicians.” Reed was well respected as an actor, and a professional, and once came within “a sliver” of replacing Sean Connery as James Bond in the film On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, but Reed’s reputation as a hell-raiser meant the part went to George Lazenby.

Even so, by 1975, Reed had made an impressive range of films, including I’ll Never Forget What’s ‘Is Name (the first film to have the word “fuck” in it); The Jokers; The Assassination Bureau; Hannibal Brroks; The Shuttered room; Women in Love (first male-full frontal nudity, a scene which was not in the original script, and was only included after Reed encouraged Russell to film it); Sitting Target; and perhaps his best film, The Devils.

Reed had formed a creative partnership with Ken Russell, the director he called “Jesus Christ,” since they had worked together on the BBC TV drama The Debussy film. It was because of this partnership that the non-singing Reed was cast in the role of Frank in the musical Tommy. As Reed and Moon capered and drank copiously off-set, it was to have a debilitating effect for Moon on-set:

Reed’s part got bigger and bigger as Keith Moon’s got smaller and smaller, probably due to Ken Russell’s familiarity with Oliver, and the fact that he could drink himself into stupor at night and show up on time and line-perfect in the morning, while Moonie remained stuporous.

Their friendship was an unstable chemical compound based on drink, drugs, sex and pranks, as Reed was to remark:

‘I like the effect drink has on me. What’s the point of staying sober?’

The life of excess has but one destination, and as Cliff Goodwin wrote in his definitive biography of Reed, Evil Spirits, the end came during Reed’s 40th birthday party at a swanky hotel in Hollywood, when Moon decided to liven things up with his impersonation of a “human helicopter”. Moon jumped onto a table, grabbed the blades of an overhead fan, and began to spin around, above the heads of the invited guests. Unfortunately, the blades had slashed Moon’s hands and arms and he splattered the A-list guests with gore.

It was the moment that Reed realized the genie was well and truly out of the bottle and that he or Moon would die from their life of excess. Tragically, it was Moon who died six months later. Reed never recovered from Moon’s death, and later claimed a day didn’t go by when he didn’t think about Moon the Loon.

I was at the US Festival in 1983. It was the first time I ever saw the Stray Cats live. They were awesome. They had like something like 300,000 people bopping to those old 50's early 60's type songs. It was a good time.

When the Stray Cats first came out, around 1980, they had a few big hits in the UK one after the other. I bought those records, and loved them - they had a great live sound. 'Runaway Boys', 'Rock This Town'. These records still sound good.

[VHscraps]

'I Love Rock'n'Roll' is a filthy, filthy song in the finest rock'n'roll / blues tradition of singing about sex using the most ready-to-hand metaphor.

I love rock'n'roll,
so put another coin in the jukebox, baby

I once tried to explain this to a woman friend who, funnily enough, looks a bit like Joan, but she just couldn't see it. Thought it was a figment of my imagination.

'You need to listen to more blues and R'nR', I told her, 'instead of this wussy, asexual, English stuff like The Smiths.'

[DLR Bridge]

Do Ya Wanna Touch Me spared the complicated double entendre of I Love R & R. That song basically came right out and said, "what say we drink and fuck?"

Haha! Vandeleur might be the only other person on here who would use the word 'tabs' - it is what they call smokes in the North East of England, and particularly in Newcastle.

You need a smoke for afterwards, is what I meant.

I remember seeing her live at some festival, and I was shocked at what a cute ass she has/had...you could bounce a quarter off that thing... wasn't completely surprised to hear she was gay, she always looked like the type of chick that might be able to kick your ass if you pissed her off... ;)

My circle of pals used to call them tabs too but that was purely due to Viz.

There was a brilliant advertising hoarding once in Billy the Fish.

For some reason that stuck with us for years. :)

I called them tabs 'cos I used to have a mate from Newcastle - a workmate. Funniest guy I ever met. 'Wor, Johnny, I gave her a bit of a poke with me cricket bat, the handle, like, then we had a tab'

Ok, what's Viz?

[Seshmeister]

A UK adult(ish) comic which was huge in the 1980s and still going. Like our MAD but much ruder and funnier...

I haven't thought of viz for years, roger mellie the man off the telly was my fav. The whole thing was so childish but you had to laugh.

Roger Mellie was great, I strongly advise you get his dictionary app for your phone - the Profanisaurus.

I got the book one Christmas and hid it away in case the kids found it , it was hilarious but a bit near the knuckle.
Will definitely check out the app.

I think MacDonalds - the fast food MacDonalds - had a UK TV advertising campaign in the 90s, maybe early 2000s, that was heavily influenced by Viz Top Tips ... and a quick search on youtube confirms I have a good memory!

Was there a footy hooligan ? I remember Sid the sexist I used to laugh but it was a bit to close to how most lads went on at the time.
Tho "tits oooot " ain't a bad mantra

Yeh.. That maybe the one. :)

I used to like Mr. Logic, who always tried to reason with unreasonable types and ending up getting a beating for his trouble. It always ended that way.

Sometimes the concept of a particular strip was funny enough to get over the fact that often the strips themselves weren't that funny. I never thought Roger Melly was that funny, but I still laugh at the thought of the image of this character with the talk-bubble declaring: 'Bollocks'.

One other I remember from around the time of the film Jurassic Park was a new strip called 'Jurassic Parkie', and it just consisted of a parkie (a park attendant, for all you non-Brits!) who went around chasing dinosaurs off his lawns with a pointy litter spike, as he said 'get the fuck out of my cunting park'.

Very true.

On a related note my pal once sent me an letter from London and had cut out the Roger Mellie saying Bollocks image and put it beside the stamp on the envelope.

When it arrived someone at the post office had cut out a little rectangle of black card and stuck it over the word 'Bollocks' I guess there must be a rule about having the word on the outside of an envelope.

The thought that someone had to take the time to do that was 100 000 times funnier than the original gag. :D

[VHscraps]

That's pretty funny - the additional 'stamp' and the censorship. I'd like to try that now and see what happens.

Probably something to do with thd word 'bollocks' being next to HRH.

I once spent a summer working as a postie a long time ago. Had great fun reading postcards as I sorted the mail before my deliveries. Jimmy Page's studio was on my route - never saw him once, though. Think it was the tail end of the heroin years for him.

you know them????

[katina]

you know them????

Die Toten Hosen played here the first time in 1992, they have a huge Fan Club here and website, this month they will play 11 and 15 in Buenos Aires, celebrating their 30 years.
The punk movement is very active here. In my teenage years some friends of mine started the punk movement and a successful band, I will post in the Youtube Music thread a Die Toten Hosen Vid playing a song of that band in a show at Buenos Aires.

Also, I found a german news video about Die Toten Hosen playing at Buenos Aires 2009, I only know a few german words.....hahaha :)
I know this is not the right thread for this post, but it has a strong bond with drinking, I guess I have some pictures........

I think the person selling it was asking an outrageous amount of money for it. One of his outfits from the early 2000s tours was up for sale too. What the hell would you do with it? Wear it to the grocery store? Put it on before headin' out to the bar for a few drinks? :biggrin:

I would like to have a big ass Eat 'Em and Smile banner. There's some black and white ones out there but I want one the size of my living room and in color!

That my friend is a fine idea, and a good reason - after several drinks - to find yourself in a bidding war for said outifts, should they - or others similar - appear in future.
