* Fletcher is quite fond of the story about Jo Jones throwing a cymbal at Charlie Parker's head and Parker becoming determined to be better as a result. As detailed on the main page, the actual story is that Jones threw it at Parker's feet which is a small but notable difference that sums up Fletcher's personality. Throwing a cymbal at someone's feet may leave them shaken but ultimately doesn't hurt them while throwing one at their head could cause serious harm. Fletcher is someone who repeatedly shows he's completely indifferent to any damage left in his wake if there's even a slight possibility that it will benefit jazz music.
