Non-musical history for today: 1836 – Inauguration of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. It stands in the center of Place Charles de Gaulle, where a wagon-spoke-like road system happens. TWELVE roads stem from the center. Let me tell you, you better know which one you need because Parisians don't like you being in their way. It's the only time I've seen Parisians angry (contrary to American conjecture). Napoleon commissioned the monument. It honors those who fought and died for France in the French

Non-musical history for today: 1861 – The United States Congress passes the Crittenden–Johnson Resolution, stating that the war was being fought to preserve the Union and not to end slavery, in the wake of the defeat at the First Battle of Bull Run.

It said so in more than three of the states' succession documents. A bunch of mouth

Non-musical history for today: 1567 – Mary, Queen of Scots, was forced to abdicate and be replaced by her one-year-old son James VI. To be fair, the road had been long for Mary anyway. I don't think she wanted to be queen. But, for a one-year-old, she had to stay around. But, I'm sure men ran the show, because... how could they not. They didn't hold women in high regard.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for July 24. Recorded in the Omniverus Podcast Studios at Liberty
