Police visit wild party by Stones' Wood
LONDON, Aug. 22 (UPI) -- A raucous party thrown by Rolling Stones' bassist Ronnie Wood was broken up by police after neighbors of his suburban London home complained, a report says.
The Daily Mirror said the 59-year-old singer threw the bash at his home in Kingston, Surrey, to celebrate the Stones' first performance in Britain in three years, but was forced to end the party when police visited at 4 a.m. Monday in response to noise complaints.
As part of the celebration at Wood's $28 million estate, revelers enjoyed more than $56,000 in alcohol while the Stones' bassist preferred his libation in the form of nitrous oxide gas, also known as laughing gas, the Daily Mirror said.
"Ronnie was inhaling it from balloons and doubling over in fits of giggles," one guest told the newspaper. "It was hilarious for him and just as funny to watch."
Not joining Wood in celebrating the Stones' Sunday performance at Twickenham rugby ground were his band mates -- the newspaper said they went home rather than attend the party.

_____
now, i can totally see substituting one substance for another, but jeezus, no2..? wtf..? that shit kills serious brain cells. i mean, a little probably aint gonna hurt you, but if ronnie is sucking down balloons at the rate he used to drink, trying to capture the buzz he used to feel, man - that is a long f*cking row to hoe!!! i would almost think he would be better off with the booze and 'butts...

How dumb is this journalist?
Not only does he refer to Ronnie as the "Rolling Stones bassist", but he does on to begin the next paragraph with "the 59 year old SINGER..."
Either he's a moron, or he is an expert like us and was simply thinking about performances of Jumping Jack Flash/Just My Imagination 1981 or It's Only Rock And Roll 1976 when he wrote the article.
Makes me want to start a new thread about how Keith and Ronnie should start singing backup again, no matter how rough they sound - it would be great fun. |
