Ohh well. faghoo gave the link and it’s not working. Basically a story of when the who drummer passed out and they had a 19year old kid from the audience fill in for 3 songs in 1973. Gayhoo sucks.

Can probably find it by searching for the title.

He's out cold. I think he's gone and eaten something he shouldn't have eaten": What happened the night a Who fan was pulled from the crowd to fill in for Keith Moon​

Great story, he'd be about my age now.

Never got to play with the who but I did meet Steve Stills, and Eddie VH, Paul Kantner and Jack Cassidy.

What really caps off the story is Pete Townsend sending a very nice letter expressing his admiration for Halpin upon being notified of his death decades later.
Thanks for sharing this; I had never heard about it before.
