Non-musical history for today: 1872 – The Metropolitan Museum of Art opened in New York City. It is the most-visited museum in the United States and the fifth-most visited art museum in the world after the Louvre (I've touched), Vatican Museums, The National Museum of China, and the British Museum (which I have stood in the courtyard of). And, while this is supposed to be "non-musical," I find it cool that two famous music pieces, Rossini's opera The Barber of Seville (1816) and Tchaikovsky's

Non-musical history for today: 1964 – In Wesberry v. Sanders, the United States Supreme Court ruled that congressional districts have to be approximately equal in population.

Non-musical history for today: 1779 – Native Hawaiians killed Captain James Cook near Kealakekua on the Island of Hawaii.

Non-musical history for today: 1961 – An allegedly 500,000-year-old rock (claimed to be a geode) was discovered near Olancha, California, US, that appears to anachronistically encase a spark plug. The University of Washington geologists could find no evidence that it was 500k years old. What they think it is - not a geode - is a concretion or deposits of sediment that hardened. The plug was from the 1920s and used in Model Ts and Model As. Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths

Non-musical history for today: 1502 – Isabella I issued an edict outlawing Islam in the Crown of Castile, forcing virtually all her Muslim subjects to convert to Christianity. I feel that we are facing the exact same thing here. I prescribe to NO religion and will not be forced to. At the same time, those who believe what they believe shouldn't be forced to change their stance because someone else says they must. That's stupid.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for February

Non-musical history for today: 1915 – D. W. Griffith's controversial landmark film The Birth of a Nation premiered in Los Angeles.
