Never heard about this. Do you know where and when it happened?Quote

Bill Wyman knocked unconscious by an electrical shock from a microphone stand 1965. I guess you can say the microphone was malfunction.
Odense March 26. Keith as well later that year in Sacramento, somehow an electroscock as well. If I remember correct, I have seen pictures of them being on floor.Quote

I think we should start a Stones 'Wardrobe Malfunction' thread...the only one I can think of though is Mick busting a button on his trousers.
Hope they don't fall down BTW.

And thus, due to a freak electrical accident, was Keith Richards infused with super powers.

Oooh! you have uncovered the Keith Richards superhero creation myth -- what are his super powers?!

Vienna June '14. Sympathy. Backing track goes out and Charlie kind of gives up on the song. Mick, Keith and Woody try to keep it going. One by one they surrender and laugh it off. Never saw anything like it before, never will again.

"A few hearts broken, a few strings busted. That's not a lot - between friends..."
I'd say on the Bring It Back Aliver-show (Early show, November 9, 1969 in Oakland), where Keith and Taylor had to share amp for a while. I think it was Keith's amp that broke down during JJF.
While fixing the problem, they pushed You Gotta Move and Prodigal Son as the second and third song in the setlist
I don't think they shared amps, but Richards had to switch from the Ampeg to the Fender head while they replaced the Ampeg heads.

Didn't the Grateful Dead lend one of their amps to Keith ??

<<Keith getting electrocuted at Sacramento on December 3rd 1965 was a pretty spectacular malfunction>>
The guitar and the microphone were in perfect working order both before and after the incident

Of that Odense 1965/Wyman knocked out accident... a quick google research showed that it was quite a mess.
satisfaction.dk tells that [www.satisfaction.dk]
26th: In Odense, Denmark, at the Fyens Forum Mick becomes more electric than he'd ever hope to be. At sound check, he touches two live microphones at once. The electrical shock jolts Mick around the stage, knocking into Brian and eventually knocking out poor Bill Wyman in a 220-Volt surge. The promoter told the press afterwards that what saved Bill was Mick accidentally pulling out the main plug as he fell.
Even wilder picture is given by SATURDAY NATION from East Africa (???), which claims it all started from drummer "Keith Richards" - this is shared by great Jaxx from ROCKS OFF [www.rocksoff.org]
Mick Jagger: Talking of the lead singer of Rolling Stones, his drummer Keith Richards (that semi-conscious-at-the-best-of-times artiste) once touched an unearthed mike with a metal drum stick during an Odense concert in October 1965. The shock knocked him into Jagger, who then touched two live mikes that sent Brain Jones hurtling into Bill Wyman. For a few minutes, all the Rolling Stones were knocked out by electricity. Then Jagger came to and revived them by slapping them on the face (not pouring cold water on them). The show rolled on – like a stone.
Huh...

Mick, Keith and Woody - and Darryl and the intrepid Lisa and Bernard - try to keep it going.
That was a fun performance to watch. Moves away a bit from the predictable.
