Spotted this in local newspaper in an article about Beatles vs. Stones, thought it was cute......
"As for the Stones, my big brother took me to see them in 66 in a small Montreal venue. The teens attending this event were equaly rabid. In fact, the show lasted a scant 45 minutes. The problem: Hormonal young lovlies had pelted the proscenium with so many teddy bears - rumoured to be the stuffed animal of choice for MIck, Keith and the boys - that band could not play for all the fake fur. The Brits hightailed it back stage before the dam broke and a torrent of fresh, pubescent female flesh on them. Word was they were terrified."
Seems the Brits have come along way, traded teddy bears for underware and I think they got over running from women
You complain about the distance from the fence to the stage, teddy bear protection....who knew?
