Step Inside Walk this Way You and Me Babe Hey Hey! Def Leppard's Drummer attacked in Florida but not by Florida Man

"And over here... the guy who plays the sloppy drums?" Thomas Smothers asks Keith Moon about his drumming technique in 1967, during the infamous exploding drum kit My Generation spot.
I guess the synchronicity theory came to pass in the last couple days vis-a-vis Drummers.  I watched the 2021 Netflix documentary Count Me In, which was great film on drummers but, it was bittersweet to see the late great Taylor Hawkins and Charlie Watts who passed away on the day Netflix released it.  Keith Moon is also prominently discussed. 

A teenaged Ohio Man attacked Rick Allen, the famous one-armed drummer of Def Leppard rushing from behind a pillar and knocking Allen down.  The 19 year old Max E. Hartley bum-rushed Allen while the drummer smoked outside the Fort Lauderdale Four Seasons hotel.  After knocking the disabled drummer down, Hartley knocked a woman over, who rushed to Allen's defense, dragged her around by the hair and then ran around trying to smash car windows until tackled by hotel employees.

Ohio is rapidly trying to catch up to Florida, Texas, and Indiana as most Fascist States in America.  Hartley was in Florida for Spring Break... 

In another bad day for drummers, Jim Gordon a session musician died having spent half his life in prison after killing his mother.  Gordon apparently played with big 1960's and 70's performers before apparently suffering worse and worse schizophrenia resulting in his murder of his mother in 1983, claiming voices told him to do it.
