FEBRUARY 28 |
ON THIS DAY IN 1970, LED ZEPPELIN PERFORMED IN DENMARK AS “THE NOBS.” THEY HAD TO USE THE ALIAS BECAUSE EVA VON ZEPPELIN, A RELATIVE OF THE ORIGINAL AIRSHIP DESIGNER, THREATENED TO SUE IF THEY PLAYED IN DENMARK USING THE FAMILY NAME.
TODAY IN 1983, U2 RELEASE THEIR THIRD ALBUM, ‘WAR’, WITH THE HIT SONGS “SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY” AND “NEW YEAR’S DAY.” IT’S THEIR FIRST ALBUM TO SELL A MILLION COPIES IN AMERICA.
AND TODAY IS THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIRTH OF BRIAN JONES, A FOUNDING MEMBER OF THE ROLLING STONES. BRIAN QUIT THE GROUP IN 1969, SHORTLY BEFORE HE DIED IN A SWIMMING POOL ACCIDENT AT AGE 27.
