Keith Richards' Blood Transfusion

It's rumored that after years of dedicated drug abuse, Keith Richards could give you a pretty good contact high just by standing in your presence. OK, that's not true and neither is this: Keith Richards went to Switzerland to have his blood changed in order to sober up before a tour. Yes, Richards did go to Switzerland to meet with a doctor to help him with heroin withdrawal, but he did not get his blood swapped. The myth originated with the guitarist again, who invented the story to avoid long conversations about the procedure.
