I grew up on a farm about 20 miles from where the plane went down. I was 7, didn't know who the victims were, but remember all the adults talking about it for several days.

Visited it early this summer- first time. We had a good time looking through the Ballroom and visiting the crash site. Sad- awful young.

It was. One of my dad's cousins was there that night, she says it's weird to think that they were dead before she and her friends got home. She lives in an hour away from me Joplin now, is 80, and I have lunch with her every now and again, the last time about a month ago. There are still a lot of classic 1960/70s acts still playing at the Ballroom. I saw Three Dog Night, the Guess Who, and others there, back in the day.
