Short story:
There is a riot, quelled by baton-wielding police, when The Rolling Stones play at The Messehallen, Oslo, Norway, Europe.Full article:
Keith Richards (guitarist, Rolling Stones) : There was a two-year period when the audience were louder than us, all screaming teenyboppers. Brian had this terrible joke of playing Popeye The Sailor Man in the middle of anything because it didn't matter, nobody could hear shit anyway. I'd be walking past him on-stage and I'd hear (sings) da-da-da da da da all the time. For Charlie I think that was the most frustrating time. He was a serious musician, a jazz drummer, and all of a sudden he's playing to a load of thirteen year old girls wetting themselves and Brian's doing Popeye The Sailor Man, and it was, 'Whatever happened to the blues?'
Brian Jones : My ultimate aim in life was not to be a pop star. I enjoy it - with reservations - but I'm not really satisfied, either artistically or personally.
