Opinion: What's Left of Russia's Black Sea Fleet?

Yahoo News
April 2, 2024


Russia's war against Ukraine is shattering the conventions of warfare in many ways.
One of the most illustrative examples is the systematic destruction of Russia's Black Sea Fleet (BSF) by Ukraine, a country that has virtually no navy of it's own.
The Ukrainian military's use of coastal missile systems, air-launched cruise missiles, and sea and air drones has forced Russua to up it's Black Sea port defenses and create a naval base in Russian-occupied Abkhazia.

An early symbol of humiliation was the destruction of the Russian cruiser Moskva, the BSF's flagship, by Ukrainian Neptune missiles in mid-April 2022.
This marked the second time in history that a cruiser-class ship was destroyed in combat since the Argentine ARA General Belgrano was sunk by a British submarine during the Falklands War in 1982.

Post a "hard-to-answer" question about a rock musician/band & see if anyone knows the answer without using Google

Hard-to-answer meaning a tough or difficult question about a rock & roll musician or band, (some fact not widely known)





My question:

In one of their early U.S. tours, The Rolling Stones performed at a venue which had electrical problems, with power going off several times. After the power came on one time, they started to play a song and the power immediately went off again, angering Keith Richards so much he broke his guitar on stage.

A) What was the city and the venue?
B) What brand & model was the guitar?
C) What was the song they were starting to play?





(Guesses welcome)
