Bill Graham Tribute

November 3, 1991 – On This Day in Rock History, a crowd estimated at 300,000 turns out for a concert honoring promoter Bill Graham, a San Francisco legend who died a week earlier. Performers at the tribute include Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Joan Baez, Santana, Grateful Dead, and Journey, which reunites for their first performance since 1987. It was the last time Steve Perry sang with the band. The show goes smoothly, a remarkable feat considering it was organized in less than a week; Graham died in a helicopter crash on October 25 at age 60.

Hang on Sloopy

October 9, 1965 – On This Day in Rock History, The Ohio State University Marching Band played “Hang on Sloopy,” one week after The McCoys’ version hit No. 1 on the pop charts. The band’s halftime show that day was honoring the arts, and they formed a ballerina while playing Tchaikovsky’s “Waltz of the Flowers” before dancing Watusi-style and playing “Hang on Sloopy.” Director Charles “Charlie” Spohn thought that the juxtaposition would amuse the crowds in Ohio Stadium, never realizing it would become a tradition at Ohio State. It soon became an OSU favorite, and in 1985 it was designated the state song of Ohio.
