Keef has class. Not any old tree but a palm tree.

Frankly, I'm amazed he didn't just snap in half when he hit the ground, releasing a cloud of dust.

Maybe he was sleeping upside down. It adds ten years to your life.

This doesn't seem like news: Keef's been out of his tree since 1965.

Keith Richards 'to have brain op'
The legend is due to go back to hospital
Rolling Stones legend Keith Richards suffered a brain haemorrhage after he fell from a palm tree at the weekend, it has been reported.
The star injured himself in a bizarre accident in Fiji last week (April 27). Initial reports indicated he had suffered "mild concussion" following the incident at an exclusive resort.
According to The Sun, after Richards had continued to complain of dull headaches tests revealed a small haemorrhage. He will now have an operation to drain his skull.
A spokesperson for the band could not confirm the story when contacted by NME.COM.

Richards is said to have had the accident as he and bandmate Ronnie Wood tried to climb the tree to get coconuts at the Wakaya Club luxury resort. The star lost his grip and plunged to the ground.

Breaking Keef news... apparently he snorted his father. Does it get any more rock 'n roll than that?
