Nikola Tesla was in St. Louis?
from History of the Lou - 97.1 FM Talk
Yep. He did a show here near the Central Library building downtown in 1893, in association with the National Electric Light Association convention that was in town. People crowded into the building at Locust and Olive, and tickets were being scalped outside for crazy amounts of money. Fast forward to today...two local brothers, Mark and John Rogers have written an original rock opera called "Nikola Tesla Light It Up" about Tesla's amazing life. They join Sue to talk about Tesla himself, his show in St. Louis, and why it was his last one.
