Short story:

The Who, Small Faces and Paul Jones fly from Sydney, Australia, Oceania, to Essendon Airport, Melbourne, where Pete Townshend, angered by questions about drug-taking, hits a reporter during a press conference.

Full article:

Kenney Jones (drummer, Small Faces) : They kept asking Townshend and all of us what drugs we were on. So I said, 'I don't take drugs.' But they were like, 'You do take drugs, and you're bringing them over here.' I told this reporter where to go, and then he looked at Townshend and said, 'So what kind of drugs are you on, then?' Townshend just decked him – knocked him straight out.
