You Don't Mess With A Man's Hat

Globe-Democrat 1895:

William Lyons, 25, a levee hand, was shot in the abdomen yesterday evening at 10 o'clock in the saloon of Bill Curtis, at Eleventh and Morgan Streets, by Lee Shelton, a carriage driver. Lyons and Shelton were friends and were talking together. Both parties, it seems, had been drinking and were feeling in exuberant spirits. The discussion drifted to politics, and an argument was started, the conclusion of which was that Lyons snatched Shelton's hat from his head. The latter indignantly demanded its return. Lyons refused, and Shelton withdrew his revolver and shot Lyons in the abdomen. When his victim fell to the floor Shelton took his hat from the hand of the wounded man and coolly walked away. He was subsequently arrested and locked up at the Chestnut Street Station. Lyons was taken to the Dispensary, where his wounds were pronounced serious. Lee Shelton is also known as 'Stagger' Lee.

History of Skip Spence in one sentence for the purpose of this post: Alexander Lee 'Skip' Spence was first the guitarist for Quicksilver Messenger Service, then the drummer for Jefferson Airplane, and then went on to co-found Moby Grape where he had a drug induced psychosis, attacked band mate Jerry Miller with a fire axe and was committed to Bellevue Mental Hospital where upon release he motorcycled it to Nashville and recorded Oar by himself only to bail and become a transient of Santa Cruz til his death. This is one of the best albums I have ever come across.
