Short story:

Sly And The Family Stone play at The Lyceum Ballroom, London, UK. Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix both attend the show but a plan for the pair to meet has to be abandoned because they are seated in separate boxes on opposite sides of the venue. Earlier in the day, Clapton had bought a left-handed Stratocaster for Hendrix but is, in the event, unable to give him the gift.
