SYDNEY, Australia, April 29 (AP) — Keith Richards, the seemingly indestructible guitarist for the Rolling Stones, fell out of a palm tree while vacationing in Fiji and was hospitalized in New Zealand with a mild concussion, local news reports said.

Mr. Richards, 62, was injured earlier this week and flown to a New Zealand hospital for treatment, Fran Curtis, a spokeswoman for the band, said in a statement on Saturday.

"Following treatment locally and as a precautionary measure, he flew to a hospital accompanied by his wife, Patti, for observation," Ms. Curtis said.

The statement did not elaborate on Mr. Richards's condition or explain how he was injured. But news reports in Australia and New Zealand said the guitarist hurt his head after falling out of a palm tree at an exclusive Fiji resort and remained hospitalized in Auckland.

As far as the top drawer music biz or icons are concerned, I have the feeling ALMOST everything's about Snoop's bling!

I wonder if Richards had some "medicine" on him when he fell?

I only think of him, rightly or not, as being always medicated.

I'm actually wondering what a bloke of 312* is doing up a tree in the first place.


(* Let's face it - the report that he's only 62 is a bare-faced lie.)

True, dat.

Either HIDING Snoop's bling that Bowie passed to him or else practicing his tree climbing skills in preparation for hiding from Snoop looking for his bling.
