TRUTH !!
Both Cass Elliott and Keith Moon died at the age of 32 in the same bedroom
in Flat 12, 9 Curzon Street, Mayfair, London, owned by Harry Nilsson.
Nilsson lived at the flat for several years, but would lend it to other
musicians when they would pass through London while he was on tour
elsewhere. On July 29, 1974, former The Mamas and The Papas singer Cass
Elliott was staying there with her band when she died of a heart attack
after a performance. Four years later, The Who's drummer Keith Moon was
renting the apartment full time from Nilsson when on September 7, 1978, he
died of an overdose of Clomethiazole (a drug used to combat alcohol
withdrawal). Nilsson was already uncomfortable owning the property after
Elliott's death and had reportedly been hesitant to rent it to the
self-destructive Moon, who reportedly answered, "Lightning wouldn't strike
the same place twice." After Moon's death, he sold it to Pete Townshend of
the Who.
