None of the money had actually gone missing. It just wasn't in the books...
Keith Moon used to grab a big bundle of cash, so did
Pete Townshend so did
John Entwistle and so did
Roger Daltrey...you knew there was drugs money, booze money and madness money and that's where it went...This was years of madness on the road, smashed cars and paid off chicks and so on. Anyone in rock n' roll knew that. [on the subject when Roger Daltrey wanted to "balance the books" and found a "black hole" in the accounts in 1972.]
