The Day the Music Dies – 2/3/1959

Tomorrow, February 3rd marks the 53rd anniversary of the plane crash from the Winter Dance Party tour. That crash took the lives of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and JP “Big Bopper” Richardson. The only original headliner of that tour that did not take the plane and is still around is Dion Dimucci.
