The El Mo made international headlines in 1977 when the Rolling Stones performed upstairs on March 4 and 5, billing themselves anonymously as “the Cockroaches.” Word leaked out and massive crowds turned up for what was the Stones’ first club date in 14 years. The shows were recorded and released as the album Love You Live. The event took on political overtones due to the presence of Margaret Trudeau, then wife of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, whose appearance and sightings with Mick Jagger caused a national scandal.
....The El Mocambo (aka "The El Mo") is a live music and entertainment venue in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Located on Spadina Avenue, just south of College Street, the bar played an important role in the development of popular music in Toronto since the 1940s. It is best known for the 1977 surprise show by The Rolling Stones, which became nationally notorious for the presence of then Prime Minister Trudeau's wife, Margaret Trudeau (now Margaret Kemper), who was partying with the Stones.
