    And lets not forget the 27 club.

    Brian Jones 1969 Drowning?
    Jimi Hendrix 1970 Drugs
    Janis Joplin 1970 Drugs
    Alan Wilson 1970 Drugs
    Jim Morrison 1971 Heart failure?
    Pete Ham 1975 Suicide
    Kurt Corain 1994 Suicide
    Amy Winehouse 2011 Alcohol poisoning

    What a waste.

    ...fwiw, Waylon Jennings tells an entirely different story about "The Day the Music Died".

    Different then what? We know who was in the plane, we know who took who's place & why. We know that Jennings was set to be part of Holly's group & sometime back I heard Jennings during an interview talk about how he made a little joke with (I think) Holly. Supposedly Holly told Jennings "I hope you freeze in the bus" & Jennings supposedly said back "I your plane crashes".

    Was there something else?

    I saw an interview with Waylon and he said that he regretted that plane crash statement for the remainder of his like.
