So I am playing Buddy this summer in WI. Having watched hours of documentray footage, grown up listening to buddy and blah blah, here's what I've come to observe. that the spectacle of the clear lake show in the musical, is symbolic. While the real life version was four guys and a couple mics, they were/are in a sense just men playing. However, recollection and hindsight make that night out to be so much more. We rarely remember things for what they were, but rather we wanted them to be, legend.
it's absolutely stupid to present the last tour of Buddy with big orchestra. That tour was a disaster, Sometime Ritchie valens play drums for buddy due of the lack of musicians. The bus was in bad condition, Buddy made this tour only for money. At this time he had brock with Norman Petty and all of his royalties were blocked by this fuckin' gay Petty.

Buddy's guitar didn't have a rosewood fretboard. All of the Strats that Buddy played had a maple fretboard.
