Nice. I was wanting to do something very close to this awhile back. Of course the above code is more useful in the context of a function, something like the below-- which has something missing. What?

(setq ddd "2013-02-11.tail")  ;Want to remove tail on string also

(defun ddd
(format-time-string "%A, %B %d, %Y"
   (apply 'encode-time 0 0 0
          (nthcdr 3 (parse-time-string ddd)))))
