Golden Earring toured with the Who in the early '70s and got along with Keith in particular. I ran across a story somewhere about George Kooymans taking the same drugs Keith was taking one night and having to be carried onto the plane the next day.

Keith was a great, great drummer. Like John Bonham, who also self-destructed much too young (both only 32).
