Lightweights.
On tour in the U.S.A. in ’65, Kinks drummer Mick Avory removed a cymbal from it’s stand and tossed it at Dave Davies. It barely missed his head, Dave almost being decapitated. Antics like this resulted in The Kinks being banned from performing in the U.S.A. for four years by the Musician’s Union. I saw them in 1970 and ’71, and they were fantastic. Not being able to tour here, Ray Davies had a lot of time to write songs, and his 1966 to 1971 writing resulted in an amazing body of work (Face To Face, Something Else By, The Village Green Preservation Society, Arthur, Lola Versus The Moneygoround, and Muswell Hillbillies), imo superior to that of The Kinks peers, The Beatles and Stones.
And then there is Jerry Lee Lewis, who in 1976 "accidentally" shot his bassist in the chest with a 357. They didn't nickname him The Killer for no reason!
