The Day the Music Died.

50 years ago today Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper, and Ritchie Valens were killed in a plan crash.  The plan left in very winter conditions and most likely should have never took off. 

Even though i was not born for another 20 years after this happened, I grew up listening to these guys.  I still have a love for the oldies.  My dad has told me so many stories and I have seen and read so much about the crash.  It is a day I will never forget.  I also had the chance to see the tribute at the Norshore.  

Buddy Holly, the most known artist and head liner, had a plane lined up to fly them to their next concert site. Little did he or anyone know it would be their last concert. The plane went down just a few miles from the air port that they had taken off from.

Thank you Buddy Holly, Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens. You will never be forgotten and your music will forever live on.

Don’t forget, the Tribute group will be at Grand Casino Hinckley on Friday February 20th @ 8pm. Tickets available at www.ticketmaster.com.
