Two friends and I were trying desperately to go to that show. We had a car and driver (older kid) ready to go but the storm was coming and the parents ultimately said no. We spent the evening listening to 45’s and wishing we were in the live audience. The next day we awoke to the utterly devastating news of the plane crash. I never went to another sleepover or tried to attend another show for years. What a loss to music, to folks, his friends and Miss Maria. Heaven’s got a helluva band with him in it.
That band is the best forever and forever
Are you from Clear Lake? I'm from Mason City 😊. I used to work at the Surf for years ending about a decade ago. Love that place. So full of history of a ton of bands
Ritchie Valens, n Buddy Holly n Big Bopper, were having a blast with the crowd n Rock n Rolling , women were going crazy over them
@@summerschultz6685it’s a goal of mine to visit. My birthdate is Feb 2nd. So the concert has a special meaning. I love buddy and all of them
I can’t imagine not going to my husbands funeral. It’s sad
It was very hard for my mom. It was very heartbreaking. She absolutely didn’t want to go. People made her go because they wanted her to have closure which didn’t happen.
I didn’t go to my wife’s funeral either because of distance. We were estranged though.
As they say, he was ahead of his time, he died before his time. R.I.P
The day the music died r.i.p buddy holly , Ritchie Valens,and Jp Richardson (the big bopper) forever legends ❤❤
I loved Buddy hollys music. The story Waylon told about it is so sweet. I also love Waylon. Buddy believed in Waylon. It was so hard for Waylon.
@@gracieg7601It sure was. Thank you for your voice @ Gracie ❤
What a heart-wrenching story of love and loss.
I understand how you feel Maria Elena. My life went into slow motion when I lost a loved one and I know when you love someone it lingers in your heart forever. We never know what life is going to bring us. I am very spiritual so I know that God has the final say my heartfelt empathy for the loss of your loved one. God bless and keep the faith. Rest in peace Buddy Holly.Amen🎉
Amen in Jesus 'name.
I was born and raised in west Texas. I was born in 1950, (always felt cheated because I was born a decade too late.) However, I had a brother 12 years older than me. Roy Orbison lived 7 miles from us. We lived in Kermit, Texas, and Roy lived in Wink. My brother listened to Roy, Buddy Holly, and of course Elvis constantly. Buddy lived in Lubbock, about 140 miles from Kermit. Fortunately, I was a teenager when Larry Gatlin (Odessa, Texas, came along). Odessa is 40 miles from Kermit. So, I grew up listening to these guys, but was jealous of my brother who went to all of Roy Orbison's local dances.
Larry Gatlin has the biggest ego in country music that I have ever seen. Arrogant. I don't know how his brothers feel about him being the lead name with their surname. I would be embarrassed. I have been backstage at the Opry and or Ryman Auditorium (mostly Opry House) a few times and he absolutely is shockingly not a nice person at all. I mean, I guess I could have caught him having a bad day each time I have seen it, but I think the odds are low.
I worked with one of Maria's 3 children. He told a story about Gary Busey coming to their house one day to buy one of Buddy' guitars for a hefty price. He himself used to fool around with said guitar from time to time as it was kept in a closet in the house.
Wow. That scammer of a wife sold his guitars ?
This is grief. Remember she lost Buddy 's child. IMO.
Do they know if Buddy Holly knew maria was pregnant before he passed? Or did he pass away never knowing she was with child
I think this video sheds light onto the personality of Maria Elena. She was obviously somewhat dysfunctional. Clearly the timing of his death and vulnerability affected her life’s decisions. Had Buddy not been famous, she would have moved on in life. Also, she has no right to sue Peggy Sue, as it was her own life and experiences with Buddy Holly that she wrote about. It’s just greed on Elena’s part.
Rest in peace buddy as well as the other band mates who perished..all rest in peace
I did not want to go to my husband’s funeral because I didn’t want to remember him that way it was bad enough. I found him dead in our home. I couldn’t deal with it.
Praying for you Sister 🙏❤
I truly understand. I found my wife dead at home and years later I went to visit my mother in a nursing home last year and I found her deceased in her bed. Neglected by the home.
You should have had the funeral that fit your views. Closed casket is fine and I have even seen them done post-cremation. Photos, memories and words said… but if that is too hard, it is understandable. Regret is a tough pill to swallow though. I have heard some great stories shared nobody would otherwise have heard.
@@Bonzi_Buddy thank you all for letting me participate in this thread. Happy Friday and best wishes.
If it wasn't for Buddy Holly and the Crickets out of Texas, the Beatles would have never been heard of without his sound and style.
for any rock and roll band after basically, they all used his template of write your own material bass/guitar/drums. Buddy Holly originated that.
Why do you repeatedly show the Beatles?
Among those interred here is the noted rock and roll musician and songwriter Charles Hardin Holley (Buddy Holly) and Mac Davis. The City of Lubbock Cemetery is proud to have been designated as a Texas Historic Cemetery
I wanna drive out from Houston one day just to see Buddy Holly stuff.
Buddy Holly gravesite is not well cared for nor is it very distinguished. I know she received a decent amount every year from Lubbock for allowing the Buddy Holly Festival in Lubbock. Heard few years ago she was too demanding and the city said no more. I personally find her actions distasteful
She's made a lot of money over the years.
I worked at the Surf for many years and the Winter Dance Party honoring these musicians is always a huge event. The Valens family always shows up and out year after year. I've met them all and waited only on his brother Bob, Bud Heavy lol, all night a few different years. Buddy's family never shows or did I think.
You're a LIAR..THAT WHOLE CEMETERY IS CLEAN ..I LIVE RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE CEMETERY
While chances are you've sung along to Don McLean's “American Pie,” you may be less familiar with the radio hit's somber inspiration. Referenced in the lyrics as “the day the music died,” McLean's 1971 song was paying homage to Feb. 3, 1959-the day pop music idols Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P. Richardson, Jr.
Yep
If Buddy Holly had lived longer and had maintained his creativity, I reckon he would have collaborated with The Beatles at some stage. Holly would have written a few songs for them or with them. Also, The Fab Four would still have become influenced by Buddy Holly and he would have respected their music, at least
Before Buddy went on the road one of the biggest hits he ever had was That'll be the Day. The bass player was Larry Welborn who passed this year. That said - The Beatles first Demo was you guessed it That'll be the Day. That's the rest of the story.
Yes I agree. Life is strange. We usually don't know how it will end. ❤
@@riceski true, and it was like in 1958 too, it was a really early demo.
Why do they have all these films and pictures that have nothing to do with Buddy Holly?
I couldnt imagine not going to my husband's funeral.
That's you.. people mourn different
@@Freddie-tw4bd If a spouse cant attended their deceased spouse's services to me that s a pure LOSER
IKR, She also totally removed herself completely from him, his death. She has yet to visit his grave site.. SMDH..I have no words
How could someone not attend their husbands funeral. Unreal !
Bc she used him b
Everyone mourns different ass wipes don't get that
Sorry, Peggy Sue had every right to write about her involvement with Buddy. Maria needed to get over it.
I heard that she wanted all Buddy's belongings that his parents and siblings still had and threatened to sue them.
What a time to be alive..I was born in the wrong time..this was a great documentary thank you, learned a lot more about Buddy.
I can’t imagine not going to my husband funeral but I can honestly say every relationship is different and with him being in music business in those times had to be hard for both of them. She went threw a lot so did he do I hold respect for them both
Very true and unless you are a widow/widower don't judge grief. IMO.
The wreckage of the plane crash that killed rock stars Buddy Holly (Charles Hardin Holley), Ritchie Valens (Richard Steven Valenzuela), and The Big Bopper (Jiles Perry Richardson, Jr.) On February 3, 1959 outside of Clearlake, Iowa.
what are you trying to say ?
Lol yeah?
It still doesn't say why she didn't attend her HUSBAND'S FUNERAL? THAT IS UNFORGIVABLE 😢
I agree.
she didn't go coz the next day after he died she suffered a miscarriage and couldn't handle everything
Gary busey was the best choice to play buddy in my opinion 😊
Peggy Sue wrote a book that tells the real story and her thoughts on Elena.
7:26 ... wrong! His birth surname was HOLLEY not Holey. Sloppy work!
I wish these photos they show on here were accurate. Most of the time they are showing something totally different than what they are talking about. Other than that, still interesting.
Nice video, but the pop-ups are too often and distracting.
THE PiOLT
RODGER PETERSON WAS 21
LACK OF EXPERIENCE AND BUDDY 22 RICHIE 17 BIG BOPPER 28 THERE YOUTH WAS THE REASON FOR THERE UNFORTUNATE PASSING. THE WHEATHER WASN'T SAFE TO FLY ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT BUT WHEN YOUR YOUNG WE ALL TEND NOT TO THINK THINGS OUT.
RIP 🎼 RP BH RV JP
My heart goes out to the family of Buddy Holly 💔. Maria Elena True Love Ways. Siempre ❤
16:47 is Richie Valens NOT Tommy whatever his last name is! 🙄
Nope Tommy Alsep was a famous picker from that area. He played with Larry Welborn too - Larry was the bass player -- the original one. He's here on You Tube as well.
I managed the bass player - that's how I know and My natural mother [ I'm adopted' ] lived in Vegas and the stars many times stayed at her house in a motor home b/c they wanted to be in a 'family' atmosphere.
No. Ritchie is Ritchie
They are talking about who Buddy had picked to play with him. Yes, Tommy Alsep is his name. He is the one who did the coin flip with Richie.
Richie played drums that night because Buddy Hollies drummer got frost bite.
It’s shame all 3 died that nite in the plane crash buddy Ritchie and the big bopper RIP!!!
I wasn't alive when his music was fresh but my mother played his music along w waylon jennings before he became famous w the dukes theme,now i have the essential waylon jennings and hank williams and last but definitely not least,mr johnny cash,RIP buddy,big bopper and richie Valenzuela(valenz), waylon and johnny
Iam truly sorry for the loss of not only buddy,all of them,may God bless each of them and there families 🙏 😢
Actually, some Holly’s music is here needed…
The sky belongs to the stars
So what happend to peggy sue?
He [the pilot] could have been reading this backwards... they were going down, they thought they were still climbing." Shortly after 1:00 a.m. on February 3, 1959, Holly, Valens, Richardson, and Peterson were killed when the aircraft crashed into a cornfield five miles northwest of Mason City shortly after takeoff.
There is a huge pair of black glasses on a fence. If you leave your car and walk along the fence row you will come to the spot where the plane went down. It has become something of a memorial.
Yep. I was raised in Mason City! Waylon Jennings was the one who lost the coin toss. A lot of country music fans don't know that
That was no excuse for her, not to go to her husband funeral. To me that was just cold. and after that, she married, and then came back to the life before by celebrating her husband legacies how does that make sense? You never even went to his grave you could have never loved that man. And I believe that is dead was a set up. It is as clear as day. don’t be surprised if she knows about it. People will do anything for money if you could harden your heart not to go to his funeral not even to his grade site that says a lot to me.
I did not see any reason for her to blame herself that excuse makes no sense to me . that man supposed to be heartbroken in his casket for what she has done. now you are living off his name and his legacy. You should never go for that either God have mercy on some of you woman and man on this earth.💯💯
This!!!!!
She had a miscarriage remember. A husband and an unborn child. Could have been any female. In that situation. ❤Condolences to widows.
People mourn different..I bet you haven't gone to every funeral in YOU'RE FAMILY 😮😅
@@Freddie-tw4bd whatever. She was nothing but a gold digger. 🤡
He chose the wrong wife!
She was 2wks what???
When they talked about her marrying a Joe Diaz, they showed her with Gary Busey and close up on his face. That is not Joe Diaz.
she did her own thing buddy would have understood
His wife is strang
Something about her is off.
Sorry but no excuse not to go.
I was born the same month his plane crashed.
Buddy got a previous girl pregnant it was said.
She could live off his wealth and sign autographs But, not go to his funeral 😢 and So many would have done anything to be with him!! Buddy Holly's music still lives on!!
I bet she is spending his money tho SMH
If they were married and they were..it's her money now😂
It didn't leave me shocked because I have internet.
If he died she didn't have to divorce him
It meant she divorced her 2nd husband , not Holly.
He died, NOT HER GET A LIFE KAREN
He Married His Cousin 😱
Jerry Lee Lewis did that 😂
She is a liar. She wasn’t pregnant
You don't know that...makes you the liar
@@Freddie-tw4bd make u a dumb ass. Quit commenting on my stuff , stalker.
What a total waste! Driving around getting frost bite in the freezing weather to play some shows. So lame
Yeah it's called work. You know as in working to support yourself and pay your own way. You must be GenZ to have that kind of mindset. Lame.
@@donguess4332 Oh is it called work tough guy. Nobody gave you permission to talk. So keep your stupid comments to yourself and shut up
It’s not lame it is called earning a living to pay your way in the World. You must be a youngster who thinks the State owes you a living !!!!
@@barrymay8269 I dout there family appreciates your point of view. A waste of life for some rock n roll shows. But I'm glad you can be so obtuse with other people's lifes. You are truly a manly man
P u s s y
Hank jr sucks
