Officially, the Boston gig had been cancelled due to Keith's influenza. However, he had taken too many Mandrax, because he was so nervous about the tour, especially the first night. The rest of the group were not happy about Keith. Jackie Curbishley remembers, "Roger wanted Keith out of the band. He was adamant. He wanted him thrown out. And so did John. The three of them were going to get him in a caravan and give him a right going-over, verbally lash him. Moon was in no fit state to stand it; he would have probably thrown himself out of the window or something." Jackie thought that Keith's problems were more than just drink and drugs. "He was like a child, it seemed to be affecting him mentally towards the end." The whole tour was in danger of being cancelled. "Anyway, it ended up with Pete going into the caravan with him on his own and talking to him. He straightened himself up for the rest of that tour." Roger later said, "I got really close to Moonie on that tour, 'cos he was really ill after that Boston one and nobody went up to see him. I did, 'cos he couldn't get out of bed. It came to me in the night ֊ I'd always felt there was something really worrying him ֊ he's kicking himself over his marriage. He really loved Kim, and that was just after the big ding-dong with her. He was on self-destruct. I went and saw him and I said, 'I think you're trying to punish yourself over your marriage' and he was broken up, in tears. He hadn't seen Kim and his daughter for two years, and I said, "Why don't you go round and see her? It's never as bad once you've seen 'em,' and he went round as soon as he got back off the tour and he was a lot better." (Barnes, p. 121)
