Non-musical history for today: 1980 – Mount St. Helens erupted in Washington, United States, killing 57 people and causing $3 billion in damage.

I was nine at the time. 200 homes, 47 bridges, 15 miles of railways, and 185 miles of highway were destroyed. It remains the deadliest and most economically destructive volcanic event in U.S. history.Music history, album
