Curious, I looked up the Altamont concert. The Hells Angels forced the Stones to finish the concert at gunpoint?

From wikipedia. . . ..

"The Rolling Stones were aware of the skirmish, but not the stabbing ("You couldn't see anything, it was just another scuffle", Jagger tells David Maysles during film editing). But it soon became apparent they could see something of what had happened because the band stopped playing mid-song and Jagger was heard calling into his microphone, "We've really got someone hurt here... is there a doctor?" After a few minutes the band began playing again and eventually completed their set. Jagger told Maysles they all agreed that if they abandoned the show at that point, the crowd would have become even more unruly, perhaps degenerating into a full-scale riot."

Don't ever let facts get in the way of a good argument, eh Muggsey?

Barger claimed that he stuck a gun in Keith Richard’s ribs to force the Stones to keep playing (noted in several sources including his London Times obit). So, you calling Sonny liar? And FWIW I wasn’t arguing about anything. There isn’t exactly a pro and con as to whether Barger was a poor excuse for a human being. I was just wondering aloud why Phogge considered his death worthy of notice on a Stanford sports site.
