I knew it was in February, but didn’t know the exact date. IIRC, Waylon gave up his seat on the plane to Richardson, who was catching a cold in the bus. He and Buddy were kidding one another. “I hope the damn bus breaks down”, Buddy told Waylon. “I hope the damn plane crashes” Waylon replied. In his autobiography, Waylon said that for over a year, he felt like he had caused the crash that killed his friends. Reon
"Preserving the Constitution, fighting off the nibblers and chippers, even nibblers and chippers with good intentions, was once regarded by conservatives as the first duty of the citizen. It still is." � Wesley Pruden
Waylon kept a good relationship with the Hollies and they toured with him some. I saw them back in 1980 or so - a great show. Still wish Buddy and the others could have been there.
