1967 - The Doors
The Doors appeared at the New Haven Arena, New Haven, Connecticut. Before the show a policeman found singer Jim Morrison making out with an 18 year-old girl in a backstage shower and after an argument the policeman sprays mace in Morrison’s face. Once on stage Morrison tells the story of the backstage episode and starts taunting the police who drag him off the stage and arrest him. The crowd riots leaving the venue in disarray and many are arrested. Later over 100 protestors gathered at the police station in demonstration and more arrests were made.

happy birthday to Dennis Wilson on what would have been his 81st year!

American musician, singer, and songwriter Dennis Wilson, who co-founded The Beach Boys. He is best remembered as their drummer and as the middle brother of bandmates Brian and Carl Wilson. The Beach Boys scored the 1966 UK & US No.1 single ‘Good Vibrations’, plus over 25 other UK Top 40 singles. During his final years, Wilson struggled with substance abuse, exacerbating longstanding tensions with some of his bandmates. His only solo album issued in his lifetime, Pacific Ocean Blue (1977), was released to warm reviews. He drowned while swimming from his boat moored in Marina Del Rey, California, on 28th December 1983 after a heavy day’s drinking. Dennis was the only true surfer in the Beach Boys.

Real class and style is timeless. We would know, we basically invented it.
