Buddy Holly

The rock and roll legend Buddy Holly was killed in a plane crash north of Clear Lake Iowa in 1959. He and the Big Bopper and Richie Valens just completed a performance at the Surf ballroom in Clear Lake and were flying to Minneapolis when the small plane crashed in a snow storm killing all three of them. every year at this time Clear Lake holds a winter music fest to celebrate The rock and roll music of these three great legends in rock and roll. The celebration started last night and goes on until Sunday and brings a lot of visitors into Clear Lake. I live here and enjoy the fun that goes on.
