Birthdays:

Blues guitarist Buddy Guy is 74.
Singer-guitarist Seth Avett of The Avett Brothers is 20.

Today in:

1954 - Elvis Presley made his professional debut in Memphis. It was his first concert to be advertised.
1970 - The Beatles closed their Apple Boutique.
1987 - David Bowie's "Glass Spider" tour commenced in Philadelphia.

Birthday Highlight:

Kate Bush is 52 today, born July 30th1958 in Bexleyheath, Kent, England. "Discovered" by Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour, Bush has carved out her own melding of highly literate lyrics, unique vocalisms, and elaborately choreographed stage shows over the course of her multi-decadee career. Today we played something from her best selling album, 1985's Hounds of Love - a somewhat less-often heard track but a gorgeous example of Kate's mastery of atmosphere, "Cloudbusting."

You mean Seth Avett is 30, not 20.
