p2pnet - rss feed: Hells Angels Mick Jagger assassination bid
pp2pnet news | Music:- Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger narrowly escaped assassination by Hells Angels in 1969, says the BBC.
According to a BBC Radio 4 documentary, "the gang tried to reach Jagger’s home in Long Island, New York, by sea, but a storm disabled their boat".
He’d become a target, "in a dispute over security at concerts," says the story, going on:
"The row with the gang began after the death of a teenage fan at a free gig at Altamont Speedway in California."
The Hells Angels were hired by Jagger to work as security at the concert, but were fired after the incident.
"They were gong to kill him for retribution for firing them," former FBI agent Mark Young told the documentary, slated for broadcast on March 11, says the Beeb.
