As a matter of fact, Buddy Holley was born and raised in Lubbock. He graduated from Lubbock High School before his music career took off in his tragically short life time. I have a very good friend who knows a ton about the music business, and he is convinced that had Buddy Holley and Richie Valens not died in that plane crash the "British Invasion of the 60's may not have happened.
Below is a snap shot of Holley's grave in the Lubbock Cemetery.
