In the 18th century, the works of Shakespeare dominated the London stage, and after the Licensing Act 1737, one fourth of the plays performed were by Shakespeare.

Oxfordians respond that the annual publication of "new" or "corrected" Shakespeare plays stopped in 1604, [18] and that the dedication to Shakespeare's Sonnets implies that the author was dead prior to their publication in 1609.

During a 1987 show at Fender’s Ballroom in Long Beach, Ca, Wells says No Doubt was slotted to play second on a bill with about 10 other bands. The first band, who were cocky and mocked No Doubt ...
