MAYBE that was the date of the first Jimi Hendrix Experience concert in the United States?
Jimi Hendrix had been around and playing for a while by that time...

While not the first concert, I believe that was the start date of the first US tour.
Thanks for the correction.

Apparently the 8th of July is correct and by the 17th Hendrix and the Experience had separated from the tour.

Alright. I'm goin' downtown to shoot my old lady.

Yeah I'm sure the teens were very big on Jimi.
