On this day in 2003, Metallica kicked off their 137-date Madly in Anger with the World Tour at Yoyogi Taiikukanin Tokyo, Japan. The Madly in Anger with the World tour was the fourth-highest grossing tour of 2004, reaping $60,500,000 in ticket sales.
Aerosmith performed their first ever gig when they played at Nipmuc Regional High School in Mendon, Massachusetts on this day in 1970. Sometimes referred to as "The Bad Boys from Boston", Aerosmith became the best-selling American rock band of all time, having sold more than 150 million albums worldwide. They also hold the record for the most gold and multi-platinum albums by an American group.
And on this day in 1982, Soft Cell's version of Tainted Love achieved the longest unbroken run on the UK charts when it logged its 43rd week in the Top 100. American artist Gloria Jones made the first recording of 'Tainted Love' in 1964 when it was the B-side of her 1965 single 'My Bad Boy's Comin' Home'. The track's Motown-influenced sound was favoured by those involved in the UK's Northern soul club scene of the early 1970s.
