3. It would be nice if DT had those "stampede" nightmares

He would be at a rally safely up on stage when suddenly those 'disgusting people' (as DT has referred to them regarding shaking their hands or being close) rushed him in unison--too quickly and in greater numbers for the SS to react. Instead of cheering as they rushed they would be angry and would pile on him pulling at his hair and spraying him with their angry breath. In that moment DT would realize he had no control.

I am a huge Hendrix fan. I often wonder what would have happened if he wasn't forced to perform on Monkees tours, or to keep his tracks short, or to repeat his hits constantly. I recall hearing he never had any cash in his pockets because his manager kept him broke.
If only he had artistic and personal control of his own creativity, music, and image. What might have been?
