Keith Richards eats cigarettes during latest show

Keith Richards ate a cigarette on stage with the Rolling Stones at the weekend to mark the smoking ban, and indeed the last Rolling Stones' London show, and indeed one of their last ever performances.

The guitarist narrowly escaped a fine last week when both he and band member Ronnie Wood smoked on stage at the O2 Arena.

At the performance on Sunday, Richards picked up another cigarette but decided to put it in his mouth and chew on it instead of risking it again.

A fan who was watching the show told the 'Daily Mirror': "We could see him chewing it. It's obvious the band thinks the ban is ridiculous."
