Short story:

When Rick James plays at The Mammoth Events Center, Denver, Colorado, USA, he collapses onstage because of a neck aneurysm which results in a blood clot travelling to his brain and causing a stroke. In hospital, his condition is referred to as "rock'n'roll neck" because it was caused by tossing his head violently during his performance.
