I grew up on a farm about 20 miles from where the plane crashed killing Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper. One of my dad's cousins was at the Surf Ballroom for that last concert, she says it's funny to think they were all dead before she got home that night. She is 80, now, and lives in Joplin, about an hour down the interstate from me. I'm having lunch with her on Thursday.
Don't mind me, just an old man rambling.

You are as young as you feel! And your ‘rambling’ is a great story! I remember when we lost those incredible musicians! They all left the world too soon and too young! Ramble on my brother!

I was 7, I remember all the adults talking about it, but had no idea who the dead persons were.
