Music/KeithRichards calmly turned down the volume on his guitar, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dv1bM0pp_o4 hit the guy over the head with it]], strapped his guitar back on, turned up the volume and kept playing without missing a beat. Then he went down to the police station and bailed the guy out.
-->'''Keith:''' Security was not there. [[TrueCompanions I'm watching Mick's back]].
* For Charlie Watts, the BewareTheNiceOnes example on the main page.
* They announced their 1975 North American tour by calling a "press conference" at a hotel in Midtown Manhattan, then pulling up to the front entrance on the back of a flatbed truck loaded with amps and instruments and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAQidw1506o performing "Brown Sugar" on the spot]].
