1974 - "The Joker," by the Steve Miller Band, was the #1 single in the land.

2000 - Sharon Osbourne, who had been managing Smashing Pumpkins, broke off with the Chicago rock quartet. In a statement, Osbourne said, "It was with great pride and enthusiasm that I took on management of the Pumpkins back in October, but unfortunately I must resign today due to medical reasons.
