After Keith Moon of The Who collapses in The Fontainbleau Hotel, Miami, Florida, USA, he is hospitalised in the Hollywood Memorial Hospital (Florida) for over a week. Media reports state that before the ambulance collected him, Moon had trashed his hotel room and was running around the hotel in a "very agitated State". The emergency call to the police had gone out as a '41 Baker', a code in which '41' refers to a sick or injured person and 'Baker' indicates that the individual may require restraining as he is mentally disturbed.

The musical Your Arms Too Short To Box With God is presented at The Lyceum Theatre, Broadway, New York City, USA. It will run on Broadway for 429 performances. The musical is based on the Biblical Book of Matthew.
