Full article:

Gerry Stickells (road manager) : Most nights, it took forty-five minutes just to convince Hendrix to go on. Then, when you'd got him on, he didn't want to come off. Every night he'd say, 'Give them their money back. I don't feel like playing tonight. we'll do it tomorrow.' Then he would go on, and we would have to scream at him to stop at 11pm.
