Keith in defiant form.
Blaming the Police, Government, Legal system etc.
But not himself of course.
Interesting his take on what would happen if he got a prison sentence.
"They (the group) would have to take a break" (Keith)
"We would have to find another guitarist" (Mick/ Charlie)

Would never have happened.
Actually it sort of did. Mick slowly started his solo career with Miss You and after the ER sessions probably gave Keith an ultimatum: quit heroin or it’s over - meaning Mick continues with or without Keith. Ronnie was some sort of replacement and seemingly Micks new twin on stage, prancibg around, singing w Mick dtc.

DP says: "Bollocks. Ronnie was prancing with Mick already in 1975. It was how they introduced their new guitarist to the public. And they worked as a team on ER, although they had their problems finishing the mixing of it.
Building on a bassline Preston suggested on a soundcheck in 1977 is not to start a solo career "

I think Keith was fairly sincere about wanting to get off junk. He didn't want to be *told* to get clean, (I will walk before they make me run) but other than that my reading is that he mostly did what he had to do.
Also suspect that his becoming a raging drunk/cocaine addict was what really set Mick off. Sort of like, 'Geez, at least when he was nodding off he was at least malleable, now he's a raging monster.

I'm visiting Toronto next month and staying near the Harbour Castle, where the Stones were staying for their 1977 performance.
In what suite was Keith staying when he was arrested?
[www.rollingstone.com] - excellent article posted elsewhere here over the years - mentions that the band and their entourage was on the 29th to 34th floors, and even mentions that Mick Jagger was in 3424.
But I can't find any online reference to what room Keith was in.
