** In his book, [[Music/TheSmallFaces Kenney Jones]] told a story of a time when their bands were on tour together. Keith called him and invited him out for a drink, but told him to come up to his room first. When he got there, Ken saw Keith had ten snare drums around the room. Keith picked one up, said "Watch this" and threw it at the window. It crashed through the glass, and the two drummers ran over to watch it shatter as it hit the ground.
