You may have heard of Jann Wenner, the magazine head honcho who co-founded Rolling Stone Magazine, not to mention helped get the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame together in Cleveland. He was also a man about the town in New York (and San Francisco) in the seventies, eighties and beyond, where he knew the likes of Lorne Michaels and many of the stars from Saturday Night Live, including John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. The latter two at one point took an assignment for the magazine and played one of the more over-the top pranks I’ve ever learned about. Yes, the two involved Wenner in a prank about manslaughter.
