Rolling Stones Gun Fight?

Ronnie Wood of the Rolling Stones has written an autobiography, and even though you thought stories about Keith Richards couldn’t get any crazier (snorting your dad’s ashes, anyone?), they just might.

What’s weird about this story is that Keith was mad at Ronnie for doing drugs. Apparently freebasing was just a step too far.

Ronnie recalls:

“After a row with Keith one day, he stormed off to get his gun. I warned everyone to ‘clear the decks’. Keith came back with his Derringer gun, pointed it at me and yelled, ‘You f***ing b*****d Woody!’.

“But I had my own gun, a .44 Magnum. I didn’t have any bullets for it but I calmly pulled it out. And that was the last time Keith pulled a gun on me - until the next time.”

Keith may have been right about Ronnie’s drug use though. Ronnie admits that he became so addicted to coke he once banned his kids from eating meringues in the house after he mistook a white crumb for a chunk of the drug and tried to smoke it.

And still, the band has no plans to retire. Mick Jagger said recently,

“I’m sure the Rolling Stones will do more things and more records and more tours. We’ve got no plans to stop any of that really. As far as I’m concerned I’m sure we’ll continue.”

It’s amazing that these guys are still alive - maybe cocaine is the fountain of youth. It’s just a matter of whether you want to be coherent in your old age.
