Cubs 365, March 15

Every day in 2012, the Just One Bad Century blog will feature a story about this day in Cubs history. We're calling it Cubs 365.

March 15 is also known as The Ides of March. Some think of it as the day that Julius Caesar met his demise, but here in Chicago we think of our great Chicago band "The Ides of March".

They had some big hits in the late 60s, early 70s (including "Vehicle"), but in 1998 they also contributed a great song to Cubs lore. It's called "Finally Next Year". Unfortunately the team didn't live up to the song.

Listen to it here.
