Short story:
The Rolling Stones play two shows in one day. In the afternoon they play at Will Rogers Stadium, Fort Worth, Texas, USA. In the evening, they play at Memorial Auditorium, Dallas, Texas, with Patti LaBelle and the Blue Belles as their opening act.Full article:
Bill Wyman (bassist, Rolling Stones) : En route from Fort Worth to Dallas, when we stopped at a roadside burger place, Brian said he wasn't hungry and sat in the car as we all went in. Just as we were leaving, Brian decided he wanted food. Despite our protests that we were running late, he was obviously determined to relax over a large meal. Finally Andrew told Pete Bennett to go get him.
Gered Mankowitz (tour photographer) : Oldham (manager Andrew Oldham) sent the record plugger in to get him, and he grabbed Brian with hamburger in mouth and threw him into the car.
Bill Wyman (bassist, Rolling Stones) : We all sat in the car looking into the glass-fronted restaurant as Pete marched in, picked Brian up by the scruff of the neck and frog-marched him back to the car, complete with half-eaten hamburger. Brian was speechless. The humiliation probably added to his paranoia, but the incident was typical of the way he focused attention on himself and infuriated those around him, even over small things.
