Rewind & Rock with Sharon Stewart: Chilling Promoters, Dodged Tragedies, and Close Calls

Published 3 weeks, 4 days ago
Description

British Invasion icons The Kinks land in Illinois during their very first American tour on this day in 1965, completely unaware that a local civic organizer booking the gig would go on to become one of the most terrifying figures in American criminal history. We revisit a profoundly eerie rock and roll brush with darkness, and the gut instinct that kept the legendary band out of a bad situation after the house lights went down. 

Tap to find out how a simple rock tour stops just short of an absolute true-crime horror story.
