Itâs April 18th and here are some reasons why this day matters in rock history:
In 1992, Def Leppardâs Adrenalize started a five-week run on top of the album chart.
In 2015, Green Day was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It was their first year of eligibility. Other inductees included Joan Jett, Lou Reed, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Ringo Starr.
In 2003, Kiss and Aerosmith announced a co-headlining tour.
In 2006, a sale of Elton Johnâs clothes raised more than $700,000 for the singerâs AIDS charity.
In 1995, Oasis drummer Tony McCarroll was told by phone that he was out of the band.
In 1983, the number one song in America was Dexys Midnight Runnersâ âCome on Eileen.â
And in 2004, Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker opened a franchise of the popular chain restaurant Wahooâs Fish Taco in Norco, California.Â
And thatâs what happened today in rock history.
