Why March 6th Matters In Rock History

By Dave Basner

March 6, 2019

It’s March 6th and here are some reasons why this day matters in rock history:

In 1976, Fleetwood Mac released the Stevie Nicks-penned single “Rhiannon.” 

In 1989, Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler became a father for the third time when his daughter, Chelsea Anne Tyler, was born.

In 2004, David Crosby was arrested for leaving a bag of marijuana, a knife and a loaded gun in a hotel room in New York. 

And in 2006, because it was leaked early, Pearl Jam decided to make their new single, “World Wide Suicide,” available as a free download from their website without digital rights management restrictions. 

And that’s what happened today in rock history.
