The Who begin their 1975 North American tour in Houston at The Summit. .John Entwistle gets caught between the pincers of Roger telling him to turn his volume down and Pete telling him to turn it up. Frustrated, John smashes the head off his bass in the middle of the last song and walks off the stage. It takes some cajoling to get him to return for the final bow. Tensions are relieved at an after-show party that turns into an orgy. Keith and some others in The Who's entourage are photographed being orally serviced by topless groupies. The cops are called in and John and stage manager John “Wiggy “ Wolff are arrested for allegedly assaulting the police. John, wearing a Confederate officer's uniform finds the policeman who has arrested him shares his last name. When John tells him his name is also Entwistle, the policeman thinks John is making fun of him! The two Johns are soon released
