IT HAPPENED....

In 1982, the three-day 'US' Festival opened in San Bernardino, California on September 3rd. More than 400,000 people turned out to see bands like The Cars, Fleetwood Mac and Talking Heads. The show was expected to bring in ten million dollars, but lost money because of artists like David Bowie and Van Halen demanded huge fees.  Fleetwood Mac would appear on and close out the festival on day three September 5th.
