* Buddy- The Buddy Holly Story.
Jeff Eats saw Buddy- The Buddy Holly Story twice on Broadway…great show!
The Pompano Beach Amphitheater just announced that…Buddy- The Buddy Holly Story is in for 1- performance on Tuesday Night, February 9, 2016!
Trust Jeff Eats on this one, you wanna see this one!
Just a little something for you guys…Don Mclean’s 1971 hit song “American Pie” is in part about the – 23 year old Holly’s death in an airplane crash on February 3, 1959.
Between you guys and Jeff Eats, every so often I wonder what the careers of Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. Richardson (The Big Bopper) who both died in the crash with Holly- would have been like had the crash never happened! One other thing, The Beatles in part- got the idea for their The Beatles- from Buddy Holly’s group’s name The Crickets!
Like I said before, you definitely wanna see this show!

Jeff,
If the 3 had lived.
The Big Bopper and Valens would probably be on the bill at Century Village and Kingspoint.
Holly probably would have been huge and playing major venues all over the world.
