What the critics are saying:
“Keith Moon: The Real Me takes us inside the mind of Moon... a precarious journey that is the highwire act of rock and roll stardom…Berry is a powerful, skilled drummer, and recreates (with almost perfect accuracy) Moon’s brilliant drumming…a touching if ultimately tragic story…tempered by the bouquet of stardom and artistic genius that was The Who’s music.” Patrick Thomas Talkin’ Broadway
“Reborn Who drummer Keith Moon rocks Mill Valley…Mick Berry doesn’t just tell the story…he also plays Moon’s drum parts on some of the band’s biggest hits. Sometimes…both at the same time…wonderfully dynamic…Even when he’s drumming on his legs…it’s terribly compelling…eerie accuracy…when he picks up those sticks, he’s on fire. Sam Hurwitt, Marin Independent Journal
"Musical History and Theatrical Genius" Loretta Janca, SF Bay Area Director
