Live on February 3, 2009 - 50 years after the last performance of Buddy Holly on February 2, 1959 at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake , Iowa. This was at the Market Hall Theatre in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada in front of a sold out crowd. Something special was in the air that night. We rarely played Words of Love in our 10 year career, but we decided to add it in for this tour, for one thing because of its success on YouTube. We believe this to be a superior version to the one on our You Tube site which currently has 37,000 hits. The ending is imperfect, but the feel was so good, I thought it worthy of posting. It's not about perfection, it's about being true to the song.

  • In this one, your Buddy Holly type voice comes out more.

  • I had a nasty cold just like Buddy did 50 years earlier. Can't say I planned that though LOL
