Nothing new under the sun

I've just been listening to a programme about someone who regularly appeared drunk, used to drive with a case of beer on the passenger seat, drink it and throw the bottles out of the window, used a .22 gun to shoot empty bottles in the dressing room, who fell out with a chief constable and hired a plane to bombard the town with toilet rolls and, amongst other things, made a troop of Arabian acrobats sing 'Jerusalem'

The programme? How Tickled Am I?

The time? Around the mid 1930s

The Artist?

Frank Randle

Rock 'n Roll !

:D
