MP3 of the Day

On this day in 1985 Madonna played the very first date of her Like A Virgin tour in Seattle, WA. Opening the show were the Beastie Boys. Just prior to the tour the group had recorded the song She's On It. Mike D. said, "It was one of two songs that we would perform to the boos and shocked expressions of her audience every night. Thanks are due to her [Madonna] for keeping us from getting kicked off the tour." Happy Monday!

Surprise Appearance

On this day in 1996 the Beastie Boys made a surprise appearance at the Bottom of the Hill club in San Francisco, CA. That evening they performed under the name Quasar. The group wore orange jump suits that said "Quasar" on them. The suits were similar to the ones the Beastie Boys would wear on their 1998 tour.

MP3 of the Day

On this day in 1993 Bunnygrunt found their band name at the Fairmount Park Racetrack in Collinsville, Illinois. Karen Ried had bet on a horse named Bunnygrunt to win, and when it did, both she and band mate Matt Harnish saw it as a sign. Not long after they convinced former band mate Renee Dullum that they should change the name of their band from The Mars Bars to Bunnygrunt. She agreed, and the rest is history. Today we have the song Horses by Cheap Red.
