RICHARDS STILL ROCKING AFTER INJURY

ROLLING STONES guitarist KEITH RICHARDS is still living his hard-drinking, chain-smoking lifestyle, months after his near-fatal accident in Fiji.

Keith Richards and The Rolling Stones arrive at the Amstel Hotel. Amsterdam, Holland - 29.07.06

Richards underwent emergency surgery to drain fluid from his brain after he fell out of a tree on one of the Pacific nation's islands in April (06).

Despite his brush with death, Richards hasn't changed his lifestyle at all, according to his bandmate, bassist RONNIE WOOD.

Wood says, "Keith has not calmed down, it's an act.

"He just severely attacks me now and is very polite to other people. He gets out of trouble by saying, 'Well, I've got brain damage, you'll have to excuse me.'"
