Percy Sledge and the Smoking Hair Incident

Adam Curry shares a personal anecdote from a radio event in Holland involving soul singer Percy Sledge. During a performance of "When a Man Loves a Woman," Sledge stood directly under high-wattage stage lights, causing his "jerry curl" hair products to begin smoking. Curry describes intervening to move the singer away from the lights to prevent him from catching fire.
