This has been a good day for launching musicians in to the world.  There are 3 Rock/Classic Rock "greats" that all share October 5th as their birthday.  In order of appearance, we first have Steve Miller who was born today in Milwaukee, WI in 1943 making him 72 today.   Next up, we have Brian Johnson of AC/DC who was born today in England in 1947, making him 68.  And last, it's Bob Geldof's birthday as well, founder of Boomtown Rats and "Band Aid".  He's 61 now, born on this date in Ireland in 1954.

Happy Birthday x 3 to some great "Pioneers" and the best replacement singer ever!
