Previous Episode: 581. Matthew Teutsch, part 2

582. This week we talk to Phil Cross, a leading historian of the Kadohadacho (Caddo) Tribe. Phil grew up in a home with no electricity and no running water on his family’s Indian allotment land in western Oklahoma – out where that bright red dirt could both stain his clothes and, in some ways, stir that Okie pride. Phil is a historian, lecturer, Caddo traditional singer and dancer, author, drummer, woodworker, flute maker and much more.

This week in New Orleans history. The Louisiana Superdome
hosted the Rolling Stones, during their 1978 World Tour, on
Thursday, July 13, 1978.  General Admission tickets sold
for $12.50.  Van Halen opened the show, followed by the
Doobie Brothers, then the Stones. When the Stones took the
stage, which was encircled by huge red lips, the crowd went
wild. It was the largest indoor attendance in history — 80,173
people.
