  • possibly the greatest era of all time. Peoria,Ill was on the list, but buddy died before the tour got there. Was truly the saddest day in the history of rock..................

  • on ya Peggy ,ya still going,,,

  • It's a shame that such a huge as Buddy Holly is so often lampooned by sideshow acts like this.

  • may i know who was this singing, buddy holly or David Box?

  • @johnjoshua03 neither . . .Angus MacGregor

  • @2SugarsPleeze ok, thanks for the info

    

  • nice work !

    

  • If the band had stayed together he might not have died so young it's just so sad.... He was so good!

  • I went to see the "buddy holly story" ( it's a play) and I had heard his music before not knowing who it was and now I can't stop listening and I'm only 12!! Hope to see the crash site soon! It's sad how he died and even worse that he never met his son... D:

  • this is the end concert if boddy?

  • Sensational performance! Infinite love and hugs! Everyone IS so talented, Todd and the gang are immeasurably wonderful and desish VERY professional and entertaining. My visits to the show were last Saturday, March 26 and Wednesday, March 30. Highly recommended and good family show. Loved the presentation. You all take care now. And Thank you!! Todd, you are HOT!

  • you are very good,& everyone on the whole show`

  • He needs to turn is Strat up.

  • Fake

  • Haha, fuckon locos arguing 'bout something that people are meant to enjoy. Typical fucking humans, can't stop their cocks from taking over their minds.

  • @MsKnuckleduster Loco yourself, I seen your "Karlsson" vido, sick or what?, and setting fire to people's faces ain't exactly normal behaviour, or perhaps it is in Sweden?

    If I had been a bit younger and seen your videos I could have been warped for life

    Try looking at your own behaviour before you see fit to comment on anybody else's, or try commenting on this video, like you are supposed to.

  • idiot...its from the movie

  • at :31 - :37 he tosses something from his guitar. was it a pick or something caught in the strings? anyone have any info ?

  • @nexivdr It's called a "Plectrum", not a "Pick", by the way, and no, it wasn't, it was a broken string.

  • @pydo7 you are a fucking moron, so anyone named michael can not use mike ? i guess poor dick is gonna have to go by richard as well. grow up

  • @nexivdr Well pardon me all to hell, I was just answering your question.

    As you obviously have difficulty in understanding the english language, and have a serious attitude problem, I will speak slowly.

    What he tosses from his guitar is a BROKEN STRING, NOT A PICK (OR PLECTRUM).

    OK?

    By the way, on a personal note, I think that you are somewhat of a CUNT.

    Enjoy the music.

  • @pydo7 i see you are having extreme issues here.

    on a personal note, you are acting like someone pissed in your cereal. I DID NOT DO IT. so whatever issues you are having, you can try to take your shit out on me but it isnt going to fix your life any.

  • @nexivdr The only issues I am having buster, is somebody like you calling me a fucking moron, when I am only trying to expand your rather limited knowledge.

    By the way, my life was OK until you came along and pissed in my cereal.

    Why don't you try to get yourself back in tune by PICKING that BROKEN STRING from out your ass?

  • @pydo7 you are a fucking moron, if you are so immature you can not handle people talking about a video on the internet then dont comment, i know it must be hard getting picked on in real life all the time so you come on here and try to bully people around. you are clown shoes, a fucking joke. your life was never okay, by the way you are acting it shows you have serious insecurity issues.

  • @nexivdr So, nextdooriva, you know how it is to be picked on all the time do you?

    As you are clearly of limited intelligence, I will again speak slowly.

    The reason you are picked on is because you are a cunt you see!

    The solution to your problem is quite simple (A bit like you really), stop being a cunt, and people will stop picking on you.

    OK?

    By the way, next time you make a comment, try not to stand in front of the mirror whilst you do it.

    This is a nice song ain't it though?

  • @pydo7 you are such a child, you know nothing. the only problem we have here is the fact that someone (you moron) thinks they are the answer to everything when in fact you are so confused it shows you know nothing. there are a group of people who visit youtube that are known as trolls. you are on, review all of my posts on this video, then review all the posts you made. anyone with a clear head can see how ill you are. o0o0 you can talk so much shit on the net. YOU ARE TOUGH o0o0o LOL

  • @nexivdr The main problem here is you boy, where was you raised?

    I originally commented on this excelent video some months ago, and have since only replied to comments made to me, or tried to educate silly cunts like you.

    For some time my original comment was the Highest Rated, but that now seems to have disappeared.

    I wonder why?

    Childish you say?, well, go back and look in the mirror again.

    It takes a Troll to know one.

    By the way, have I mentioned that you are a cunt?

  • @pydo7 are you fucking retard? i told you, you got me mixed up with someone else. how stupid can you be?

    "I originally commented on this excelent video some months ago, and have since only replied to comments made to me, or tried to educate silly cunts like you.?

    you have serious mental issues, i suggest you seek help and stop using a computer.

  • @nexivdr So, somebody else called me a fucking moron did they?, this wasn't you?.

    Hey boy, I think it's you who needs to seek professional help.

    You truly don't seem to know your ass from your elbow, do you?

    Tell you what, I have a friend who is a Shrink, why don't I show him your semi literate ramblings and see what he says?, see if he thinks you are a cunt?

    Watch this space, listen to Buddy and don't "PICK" up any sharp objects or anything in the meantime.

    OK?

  • @pydo7 no moron i am the 1 who asked about the broken string. you have no idea what is going on. if i did call you a fucking moron it was after the fact that you tried to be a smart ass by saying pick is the wrong term to use for a plectrum. you are grasping at straws to come up with an argument. grow up, get a life, and maybe you will find something more to do with your time then troll on youtube.

  • @nexivdr Now then, are you sitting comfortably?, good, for I have just recieved a reply from my Shrink friend, who has kindly evaluated your somewhat disjointed rhetoric.

    He maintains that you are one of many individuals suffering from a debilitating condition called, and I quote, "Congenitally Unbalanced Neurological Trauma Syndrome", abreviated in medical terms as C.U.N.T.S.

    This confirms what I have said all along.

  • @pydo7 oh my gosh, you have a friend. STOP THE PRESSES !!! EVERYONE ON YOUTUBE.. PYDO7 HAS A FRIEND !!!!

  • @nexivdr So, to recap, I have a friend, and you are a cunt.

    No surprises there then.

  • @pydo7 aww poor baby, did someone piss in your cereal? why dont you go cry a little bit more?

  • @nexivdr Hey Iva, you cunt, why don't you go stick your head up your ass and shout "LOST".

    Whilst your up there, see if you can find the brains enough to come up with a half decent reply.

    So far your wit has been conspicuously absent.

    The "Piss in your Cereal" line is becoming a bit boring.

    Or, alternatively, you could simply continue to Rave On.

    Oh Boy!

  • @pydo7 QQ ?

  • @nexivdr QQ? Iva? Je ne comprends pas, pourquoi ne pas vous expliquer?, you cunt.

  • @nexivdr You still got your head up your ass Iva?

    All I can hear is Crickets chirping, and I don't mean Buddy's backing group.

    It sure looks like you have cut and run boy.

    You also still havn't answered my question.

    Maybe you ain't so smart after all, maybe you are just a smart ass, as well as being a cunt.

    By the way, pardon my French, but I thought that, as you are talking in riddles, You could surely figure out what I said,.........................­...no, ...............perhaps not.

  • @pydo7 listen fag boy, no hard to type shit into a translator and figure the shit out. unlike you i choose not to spend effort on trolls. if you feel the need to devote post after post to me, i feel like of flattered . you must really live a sad life if the only real thing you have to do is troll around on youtube. maybe someday you will gain a life and figure out something better to do with your time. until that day comes you can suck on my nuts

  • @nexivdr Well you see Iva, I am usually quite content to comment favourably on the musical videos that I enjoy, like this one for instance.

    However, when some stupid, semi literate cunt like you comes along and trashes my comments, I do tend to get a little pissed.

    That is why I deem it necessary to put the likes of you in your place.

    With you, that was quite easy.

    Hopefully, (Although with your mentality I doubt it) you will learn from this.

    Abientot.

  • @pydo7 see you are so fucking stupid you dont even know what happened. you are a moron, you started on me. for asking the oh so wrong question what was up with his broken string.

    "However, when some stupid, semi literate cunt like you comes along and trashes my comments, I do tend to get a little pissed."

    you are the 1 who first replied 2 me moron. because someone else was taking the shit out of you and you are so stupid you cant even tell the difference between 2 dif posts.

    GROW UP CHILD

  • @nexivdr My my Iva, how you do go on, getting it all wrong as usual.

    My comment was correct, yours was not.

    You were the one who started name calling, remember?

    You come across as somebody who doesn't like being corrected, spoiled as a child were you?

    Well, join the real world buster and stop chucking your toys out the pram.

    By the way, Have I mentioned that you are a cunt?

  • @pydo7 you are so fucking stupid, you have no idea what you are talking about. it seems you are in your own little world there. oh my you can call names ? you can spell cunt? you probably think about cunts often because a girl would never let you touch hers huh? so you go around talking about them all day. you are a child, i will not be responding back to anymore of your comments because you are so lost. if you were adult enough to hold a serious conversation i would consider continuing but nay

  • @nexivdr So Iva, you won't be commenting any more on this video?, well that's a relief at least, as all of your comments have been a load of old bollocks.

    Hey ho, another one bites the dust.

    By the way, what does "Nay" mean boy?, you still ain't mastered the lingo yet have you though?

  • And yes I do know its a clip ,,listen to the great mans music ...He would have been bigger than Elvis,, much respect to both men,,,

  • Buddy and his musio jivving together ,,BLOODY FANTASTIC,,,

  • great job! love this!

  • Fantastic Tribute to Buddy Holly ,

    OMG I love those girls in Pink Dresses !

  • Wow reading the comments on this, is it that hard to tell that 1. This is not Buddy Holly, 2. This is not gary Busey. and 3. Duh you really think it's an impersonator??

  • OHHHH THATS SO CUTE!! *--*

  • THis is the only colour footage of a tribute show to Gary Busey impersonating Buddy Holly. The show was billed as "Jeramy Dolt, does Gary Busey better than Busey does Holly.! "

    THe five girl backup singers were hired from the Piggley Wiggley store in Astabula because they already had the dresses.

  • @xvoy2002 thanks for the trivia. here's more: i live in mason city iowa, 9 miles from the farm where the plane went down. been going to the winter dance party now for over a decade. seems the older i get the more i want to hear this music. and mighty fine music it is. as much as i luv trance and jungle, there's nothing like the classics. is there. -djQ

  • @QUASARA Seriously? that's pretty interesting. i'm assuming the crash site is actaully pretty remote, even today. I know there's a small plaque ect there. And i've also heard the Surf ballroom is still going.

  • lol guys, it's simple as this : videos weren't that good quality in 1959. end of discussion.

  • i LOVE this one im gonna fav this!

  • No Texas accent either. Sorry but they need WORK. Buddy also never used dancers . He didnt need to, he had TALENT. Sorry for being harish but when you pay tribute to someone get it right or why bother. And Buddy put more energy into his songs. I may listen to them after they work on it a while.

  • Wow awsome energy

  • This is Gary Busey in the 1978 movie "The Buddy Holly Story"

  • @chickenmunga this is not gary busey, though his interpretation was great. This is from the stage musical BUDDY: THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY

  • @chickenmunga Dude that's not Gary Busey, look at the audience and their clothes. This is from one of those impersonater shows

  • This is a great rendition.

  • well that and you can obviously this footage is much newer than 1959 lol

  • yes, Peggy Sue Got Married was an unreleased song.

  • also, buddy holly was straight

  • What year was this????????

    Buddy Holly Died Febuary 3rd 1959!

    BUT STILL AWESOME! HE IS A GREAT IMPERSONATOR!

  • THAT IS NOT BUDDY HOLLY!!!!!!!!!

    He does look like him but maybe he's Garry Bussy???!

    He sings like him though! LOVE HIM!

  • this is shit

  • Thanks Gus!

  • Horrible set. Didn't click on this to listen to everyone BUT Buddy Holly sign his songs.

  • Seen the stage show twice; bought 2 VHS tapes(!); got given the a0 size stage poster. Oh & Rae Von is my real name. Guess you could say Im a fan of Buddy's music! Its a shame his guitar string broke (thats why it was muted soon after the intro/distortion). Playing live; singing & acting simultaneously...sure ain't easy! Thanq Marideputti

  • @Lukaskg1989 SHIT

  • Anybody know who the Black Girl back up is?

  • This gentleman and cast were suburb!

  • rocks on though the music fades to new

    genarations fades awaway

  • its a clip from the stage show, that'l be the day, its good if you get the chance to see it

  • This guy is NOT Buddy Holly! Shhheesh. The real Buddy was at least a foot taller than bandmates, for one thing. But this guy doesnt even look like him! Buddy twisted on his rt. leg, this guy uses  his left leg. etc. etc. Ya' been took!!!

  • What the fuck have you been smoking, jerkweed?! Nobody said this was Buddy...it's clearly not Buddy! It's so obviously a clip from a stage show!

    You're fucking unbelievable! Next you'll be telling people on Andy Kaufman clips that he isn't the real Elvis.

    I mean, you're such a fucking moron I can barely comprehend it.

    Where you from? I need to phone the Mayor and tell him his village is missing an idiot.

  • Its a show, get over it!

  • @CoCoismywhawha But He could be the NEXT one???

    If you think Buddy's Music Couldn't be redone your Wrong!

    I sing the songs and soon Im going to record them!!!

    LOVE LIVE THE REAL KING OF ROCK&ROLL BUDDY HOLLY!

  • @CoCoismywhawha it's a buddy holly tribute show. relax haha

  • @CoCoismywhawha Hey, simmer down old buddy, (Pardon the Pun), I think most people who watch this most excelent video realise that this is not the real Buddy Holly. I have seen the show in the "West End" in London and it was brilliant. LIVE FOREVER BUDDY HOLLY.

  • @pydo7

    i think elvis was the king of rock hm... but buddy is it

  • @melulu132 Buddy was known as the prince of rock. Had he not been taken from this world so early, he may have rivalled Elvis even more

  • @CoCoismywhawha holly crap mate you are one nerd :-)

  • @CoCoismywhawha Shhheesh just go with the flow ,they are trying to do the great man justice ,and bloody good music

  • @CoCoismywhawha lol chill mate its just a west end show...no one said it was the real one!!!

  • And Buddy Holly Could sing.

  • @CoCoismywhawha Why can't you just shut up its obviously not supposed to be Buddy Holly its a tribute to him so if you were a real fan then shut the fuck up and listen or dont watch it

  • @CoCoismywhawha who gives a shit...this is from buddy the musical a musical stage show obviously every actor isnt going to look like buddy holly and for one thing its keeping his music alive..without that show a lot of people in this generation would not have heard of buddy holly

  • @CoCoismywhawha who has been taken? i dont know one person that is confused over if this is real or a tribute/cover band. nor do i think the person who posted this video tried to mislead people in the description. i think he is just trying to take us back in time to see what it might of been like. grow up, you are not some big bad all important music history buff that has the authority to think he just solved a big mystery.

  • @CoCoismywhawha ITS A MUSICAL YOU RETARD

    

  • @CoCoismywhawha

    I'm with paulinus43ad on this one just enjoy it. I saw the same Play at Long Beach Island in 2009. Buddy Holly was played by Tdd Meredith. He was a very great singer.

  • @CoCoismywhawha No, we've been entertained like it was intended!

  • 1959, r u kidding, looks like the 80s... great quality... nearly unbelievable that it is so "short" after WW2...

  • Cannot believe it is 1959 and recorded.

    Sad to think he died after this..

  • Damn this is high quality for being filmed in 1959.

  • Are you kiddin or are ya being serious?

  • This wasn't and thats not BUDDY HOLLY!!!!!

  • Wrong chords.

  • That was pretty dang cool, and the best Buddy Holly I've seen.

  • He's dressed with class.

  • BUDDY WAS THE ROCK & THE ROLL

  • yeah ive seen the show twice and i still think angus is the best buddy ever on stage or screen ...... as for the dance that's the chuck berry duck walk.

  • Why is trying to sound like Gary Busey

  • Great performance. Buddy lives forever

  • buddy holly his have a fender guitar right

  • fender stratocaster

  • This is better than Oh Boy..You sounded little more like Buddy.You know no one can..

  • isn't this Paul hipp?

    I went to the opening of Buddy in Victoria and Paul was fantastic as Buddy. I do believe it's still running. Well... Alright!!

    Mikey xx

  • mikeystrafford - No its Angus McGregor, my opinion is he is the best Buddy impersinator. Just bought this off Ebay on VHS...

  • I love the dance they do while playing their guitar.

  • Is this from a film or something?

    That's nt Buddy Holly.

  • its from a musical

  • It's a tribute to Buddy Holly yuou dumb fuck.

  • Sorry jeff buts thats not Gary Busey thats Buddy Holly altho Gary did a good job playing Buddy

  • Yes, this is from a movie where Gary Busey plays the part of Buddy Holly. Not only that both names rhymes but Gary sounds just like Buddy :))

  • This is when music was music!!

  • this is fantastic more please

  • this can't be an original buddy holly video, they didn't have color television in 1959...did they? :/

  • This is from the musical The Buddy Holly Story. But color broadcast did begin in the US in 1954 however, most people did not own color TVs.

  • UNBELIEVIABLE QAULITY!

  • love the dance. well its buddy so you know its gonna be great.

  • aaaaarrrrggg this girlies in pink dresses are damn hotiiiii

  • Is he impersonating Buddy Holly or Gary Busey?

    no but seriously he does a pretty good Buddy... and I like this song.

  • what do you mean "Is he impersonating Buddy Holly or Gary Busey?"

    that's Buddy Holly, isn't it?

  • umm...

    are you serious?

  • no its gary busey playing buddy holly for holly's biography. no one would have such a great quality video in color so far back then

  • @thegoofiestman

    Don't look at me!

  • that is not an impersonation that's the real deal

  • motley crue and GNR sucks, and ozzy sucked after he left Sabbath lol

  • Super song and superb playing. The dance in the middle takes some doing whilst still playing the guitar. Don't think so?, then try it. What does he fish out of the strings of his guitar and chuck away?

    The girls in the chorus are stunning.

    Don't forget that this music is fifty years old (half a century) and performers today are still using Fender guitars etc. Unfortunately, most of the "Pop" music today is crap, that is why we are still listening to the likes of Buddy Holly and Co.

  • I agree with the superb playing! The Dance is also awesome but not very hard really, depends how good a dancer you are and how you can move your body haha, but yeah, I tried it last night while playing this song and I can kind of do it, and that was first try. Modern music does suck, the 50's. 60's and 70's were by far the best 30 years of music.

  • @pydo7

    He broke a string, and he pulled it out.

  • @BlackKnight1586 Thank you, I did eventually figure this out, and only mentioned it to generate a reply. It does however indicate the level of talent that this performer has, bearing in mind the rigorous auditions that he would have had to go through to actually land the part of this "Icon" of Rock on the West End Stage. Doesn't this song give you shivers of ecstacy though? BRILLIANT.( By the way, the girls in the chorus give me shivers too.)

  • @pydo7 He broke a string in the intro.

  • @pydo7 Dude he's holding one note the whole time he is dancing, I don't think that's too hard lol

  • @pydo7 totally totally agree

  • @paulinus43ad May I say that you have totally, totally good judgement!

  • @paulinus43ad bloody hell ,,glad to see someone agrees,,,,

  • @pydo7 a pick??

  • @PeterBrock80 What sort of pick??

  • hey thets nic rockin' the guitar

  • the date is february 1959, and he died february 3 at clear lake, he crashed on a plane

  • This is a reenactment dammit. Have some respect.

  • I have plenty of respect...for Buddy Holly.

    I DON'T have respect for the losers who take everything cool about him and ruin it.

  • Oh my god !!

    its Cats the musical meets Hank Marvin meets Stepford Wives !!!

  • This is an actor called Angus McGregor and this is from the west end stage show Buddy! if you look through the comments He has placed a comment himself confirming this is him!!! Probably the best Buddy I have heard in this show...spot on actor, singer and guitarist!!

  • A wicked show full of energy. Long live his music. Shame he isnt around today.

  • it's angus mcgregor i sse ""buddy""16 time the best best graet show!!!!!!!!!!

  • holy crap it's gary busey!

  • No its not. This isn't from the movie The Buddy Holly Story, it is from something else.

  • Yes, it is from the movie.

    The guy above who played Buddy Holly is Gary Busey.

  • Watch the movie and see for yourself, this si not Gary Busey

  • Agree, not Mr Gary Busey.

  • It's Angus MacGregor, performing as Buddy Holly live in London.

  • Well since I am (a) Peggy Sue I can't rate this anything less than 4 stars! Hey who is the guy playing Buddy in this?

  • I highly recommend listening to the original versions of these songs. This is kind of like listening to the elevator/lite rock version.  I wonder why they rearranged them.

  • amazing, cant stop watching, whos this guy? hes great!buddy holly was terriffic

  • i saw the same exact show

  • ...and i also realised if you watch it till the end and press play again, it becomes a concert of the same song, GENIUS!

  • Absolute genius. Never listened to buddy holly before, but this song is amazing, Plus, pathetically i love the guitar dance

  • Busted a string on the intro! Least you know he's not faking the guitar playing like a lot of them do in these musicals!

  • Nothing compares to this guy, he was nothing short of amazing!

  • terrific performance!!!

  • Brilliant song
