Keith Moon

Today is Keith's birthday. He is turning sixty.
Yes I said is, not would have.

The whole week I've been telling people Moonie's birthday was coming up, and that he was turning sixty. But the people always corrected me: "Well, he WOULD have turned sixty" or even "Ha, that guy's dead as a doornail".
I don't understand.
Keith is still living. He's definitely still living. Pete and Roger say they feel his spirit every time they perform. Every time you pop in a Who album, Keith is living. When you watch "The Kids Are Alright" don't you feel like you are there reliving moments with him? I believe that when a person is deceased phisically, it does not take away from their message, their accomplishments, or the memories and stories. If anything, it makes them even more lively.
Happy Birthday Keith. We love you. = )

I hope everyone has a great end of August. I'll update again soon. I like the whole birthday posting....Buddy Holly's is coming up.

Love,

Claire Eliza.
