Great documentary...reminded me of someone else who is a Buddy Holly fan and had a hit copying his style back in the early days of MTV.

 www.facebook.com/OfficialDion?fref=nf"Buddy Holly ~ When I was 19 I lost three friends in a plane crash: Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, and the Big Bopper. For me, grieving was a very private and personal thing. That's the way we did it in my family. We'd never consider capitalizing on a death, exploiting it, or promoting it. So I didn't make a public show of the story in 1959. I told the Story at the "Rock n Roll Hall of Fame" 2009. because they asked me to, for historical and archival reasons. I want to set the record straight because the truth of the matter has gotten entirely obscured in the urban legends and cinematic re-tellings. That's not history. That's not the story. And so it's an injustice -- unfaithful to the memory of my friends. "Dion |

Waylon Jennings almost was on that same flight...but he lost the bet, ended up taking the old bus and lived.

Always thought something wrong with them allowing the plane to go even in the midst of that horrible snowstorm, and then finding out they sent an inexperienced pilot to try to fly in that....something really wrong there.
