Default Re: Buddy Holly, A Really Big Tribute Show Planned!

This shows my age a little.

I had heard of Buddy, Richie, and the Big Bopper and of the plane going down, but never paid attention to where it happened. Just out of college, I went to work in a little town about an hour south of Clear Lake. One weekend, I hopped in my truck and I was touring the country side and went driving through Clear Lake and then went a little farther in the town and found the Surf. I thought to myself, "Man, that looks like a cool place." I guess it was about 3 months later, I was watching something on A&E (probably Biography) and I got cold chills down my spine.

Long live the music those 3 put out.... true early rock'n'roll!!!
