Reaching For A What? by Helen Bach

Life Alert was NOT there but should have been cuz Today in Rock History

May 16 1998

The Rolling Stones are forced to cancel a few dates on the European
“Bridges To Babylon” tour. Keith Richards has fallen off a chair
while reaching for a book in his Connecticut home and injured his
chest and ribs. Stop laughing, no really..try and visualize that.
But wait thats not all cuz its a dangerous day for more than just
Keith cuz in 1974 Brian May of Queen collapsed from … hepatitis?
and the most bizarre headline I found for today 1969
“Pete Townshend spends a night in jail for assault when he mistakenly
kicks a policeman offstage at Fillmore East, thinking he is a fan” As
if kicking fans is an ok thing to.
