Things that happened on September 6:
1959 - The first Barbie Doll was sold by Mattel Toy Corporation.
1961 - Bob Dylan gave one of his first performances at the Gaslight Cafe in Greenwich Village. The Gaslight was originally a ‘basket house’, where performers were paid from the contents of a basket that had been passed around.
1969 - Singer, songwriter David Bowie debuted on U.K. charts with Space Oddity. You remember, “Ground Control to Major Tom, Ground Control to Major Tom ... Check igition and may God’s love be with you, Three, Two, One, Liftoff...” Space Oddity peaked at #5 in the U.K. The song’s release was timed for the U.S. moon landing, but didn’t make the U.S. charts until its rerelease in 1973 (it reached #15).
1975 - Glen Campbell hit #1 on the Billboard pop music chart with "Rhinestone Cowboy."
1997 - The Westminster Abbey funeral for Diana, Princess of Wales. Elton John sang a rewritten version of Candle in the Wind to “England’s rose”.
And perhaps most importantly...
1975- My parents got hitched.
Congratulations on 30 years, folks! Love you!

With reference to your 1997 Sept 6th happening....Yeah. We had a late lunch on our anniversary that year at the Hard Rock Cafe, followed by HOURS sitting on a bench outside an Old Navy store in a suburb of San Francisco while Melissa and Elizabeth shopped (no Old Navy in LR at that time). Always put the kids first! What an AWESOME surprise party this year. Can't wait to see how they top it at 35!
