February 9th

On February 9, 1964, The Beatles made their first appearance on the Ed Sullivan show.

On February 9, 1974, The Stooges... a band whose singer would later brag that they helped destroy the Sixties... would play their last show.






Seems to me, those two events make for interesting bookends to a decade that gave us love beads, flower power, riots and assassinations.

What a difference ten years can make...
