There are rock and roll stories and then there is keith moon. Ten minutes of his day was a lifetime of trouble for mere mortals.

That Helen could talk Keith into or out of anything makes her a legend. Bet the other Who members would've loved some pointers!

[@christinalee9303]

I wish I could re-experience hearing this without knowing that it was gonna be Keith Moon from the title ‘cause the way she tells it is just so great

How did he know where her dressing room was? Was he really in a trash can? 🐟

Helen Mirren is the only female on planet Earth that remains beautiful at every single age.

Back in the day Helen Mirren was (still is) a BABE.

Her Keith Moon voice is AMAZING.

“The most terrifying thing that ever happened to me was that Keith Moon decided he liked me.”.. Joe Walsh.

What a lady. She has such a charisma, like she could turn a guy down and feel bad about hurting his feelings. My wife and I always love seeing her anything.

You just know Keith ended up ploughin' Helen

I love the way she almost said “rubbish”, then quickly changed it to “trash cans” for her interviewer.

SUCH a great story, and so well told! There has to be countless Moonie stories just like this one out there that have yet to be shared. Thank you Dame Mirren.❤🥁❤

I remember when Moon passed away, Entwistle was lost for some time afterwards.

[@spencer9093]

There is no words for how much I love this story

[@MrVortexRider]

She's a beautiful and amazing Lady. She still does it for me.

Meeting Keith Moon, the greatest drummer of British rock, was never EVER once just a formal, "Hello nice to meet you" followed by a handshake. When you meet Keith Moon, it's gonna be an entire chapter out of your memoirs.

[@chazinko]

Keith was a force of nature and a unique personality. No one else quite like him!

All-time beauty of Helen Mirren... Keith Moon wasn't so crazy after all !! ;D
