NOVEMBER 13
ON THIS DAY IN 1974, DEEP PURPLE, ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA, AND ELF SHARE THE BILL AT THE COW PALACE IN CALIFORNIA. A STACKED NIGHT OF HARD ROCK AND CLASSIC MELODIES THAT PACKED THE HOUSE.
IN 1990, TEMPLE OF THE DOG PERFORM THEIR ONLY FULL CONCERT AT SEATTLE’S OFF RAMP CAFÉ. THE GRUNGE SUPERGROUP — WITH CHRIS CORNELL AND FUTURE PEARL JAM MEMBERS — PLAYED IN HONOR OF ANDREW WOOD.
ALSO TODAY IN 1976, ROD STEWART KICKS OFF AN EIGHT-WEEK RUN AT NUMBER ONE ON THE U.S. CHARTS WITH “TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT (GONNA BE ALRIGHT).” BANNED ON SOME STATIONS, BUT LOVED BY MILLIONS.
