Thanks for that. One of my favorite songs even though I couldn't figure out most of it.

Odd, I guess I never realized the date they died and now it has more meaning. My mom passed away a year ago today.

Wow! I hate to admit to being old enough to remember, but I clearly do. When Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper and Richie Valens died I was in the 7th grade...all the girls were weeping & wailing. Hard to believe it has been that long...

My parents saw the Big Bopper perform in Coeur d'Alene a week or so before he died.

The Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa is an awesome place, the photos, the articles on the wall, very cool. I always liked the song "American Pie" but didn't realize the connection until I was at the Surf. I also didn't know Waylon Jennings was supposed to be on the plane but wasn't. He gave his seat up to one of the guys that didn't feel good and took the bus instead.

In a private field, you can walk out to where the plane crashed, people have left all kinds of things there. I went a few years back and you still could go there.
