Wednesday, October 24th, 1973

Filmmakers Richard Stanley and Chris Morphet arrive to film that day's Quadrophenia rehearsals at Shepperton. When Roger discovers that, after a run-through of half the show, the cameras have not been rolling, he explodes at the movie crew. A drunken Pete goes after Roger, poking him in the chest with his finger. Roger is held back, but Pete tells them to let Roger go. When they do, Pete hits Roger with his guitar. Roger responds with an uppercut, knocking Pete out. He accompanies Pete to the hospital. Rehearsal filming is canceled permanently. Also on this day Quadrophenia is played in its entirety on New York radio.

It has come to our attention that the photos on Gettyimages.com reportedly taken "on this date" are actually from a July 1973 rehearsal rather than this date.
