There are people who treat this day as an almost religious observance. There’s a modest shrine at the crash site in a farm field, and a bigger shrine at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa.
Tommy Allsup ‘lost’ a coin flip to Ritchie Valens for a seat on the plane. Allsup lived to be 85.

The first time I heard “American Pie”, I was in the wet parking lot of a store. The song came on and I sat in the car until it finished.
I knew immediately that it was going to be a hit even tho I knew nothing of what it was about.

To be clear, I am not in any way excusing or condoning the use of blackface in any era. It’s insensitive, horrific,”
Hell I was 11 when that son charted and it sounded for all the world to me like an Irish (or English) pub screamer .

I was a big Holly fan at 17 and sang and played my guitar to his hits. But when he was killed I was a college and ROTC senior and had no inclination to greive.

They were flying to Hector Airport in Fargo, North Dakota
for a performance in the Minnesota National Guard Armory in Moorhead, Minnesota. In 1967 I went to a tri-college dance there.

Amazing how accomplished Buddy Holly was at the age of 22. Already a seasoned music professional with a string of hits under his belt. He was not alone in that regard. Most young men were out on their own at that age - many of them already having served in the military.
Consider that the average 22-year-old of today still lives with his parents and flits from part-time job to part-time job.

Just to be clear, the Don McClean didn’t ram the Gordon Lightfoot, correct?
RIP Buddy, Richie, J.P. and Roger.
