WHAT DO WE REALLY KNOW ABOUT BUDDY HOLLY
What do we really know about Buddy Holly, besides he was a singer from the 50's? I think a lot of people pretray him as the "geek" that played him in the Buddy Holly Story... Buddy was far from being a geek.. He was in his day what we would consider "COOL". Buddy wore the tappered pants and rode the motorcycle....................... A lot of people remember his glasses, actually a comment last night was made to me in a chat house about his thick "Binnocular" glasses. Buddy wore his glasses with confidence and much selfasteem. The glasses were his trademark, even Elton John wears Buddy Holly "trade mark glasses" Anytime I think of Buddy Holly I think of his glasses. Most singers have something about them that you may think of when you see or hear them. I think crucifix when I hear Ritchie Valens. I think of Boppers dice whenever I hear "Chantily Lace". One night I was in a chat room and the topic was Moshing? I asked what is moshing, and someone replied "Are you a fricken Moran" I guess I could of said the samething to them if I would of mentioned anything about Buddy Holly,I merily told them I was not a kid and went on with my business. I get comments on my Guest Book oh yeah! I like Buddy Holly from the 60's. I think it is a little weird that most people don't even know who Buddy Holly was or what type of person he was. I have to remind myself that he has been gone for 38 years. Most of this generation probley don't even realize who Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens or the Big Bopper is, unless they seen their movies which is based on a lot of bull. I spoke to a man that was in his mid-fourtys and he didn't know when or where the crash happened. I am sure that there are people out there that don't even know he exsisted or died.
I THINK THAT THE THREE MEN IN THAT CRASH MADE ROCK N ROLL, WITHOUT THEM WE MIGHT NOT HAVE TODAYS MUSIC.
