There are a couple of birthdays today, that we must celebrate.
- French touch pioneer and one-half of acclaimed electronic outfit Daft Punk, Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, celebrates his 50 — 50! — birthday today.
Motley Crüe‘s Vince Neil celebrates his 63rd birthday today. As a child of the 80s, I loved the Dr. Feelgood album. How is that possible, you might ask? Well, I watched a lot of unsupervised MTV. My folks knew that I was obsessed with music and they just encouraged my interest and passion or all things music.
Happy birthday, Vince!
