In real life, the band's two other members (not counting Niki Sullivan) were Jerry Allison and Joe B. Mauldin. In the movie, they were Jesse Charles and Ray Bob Simmons.

| | | I have heard tale of this Buddy Holly character.
The documentary that Paul McCartney did on buddy Holly is more accurate. We laugh here when they show scenes in the Gary Busey version and Lubbock scenery has mountains in the background.
Not a reality.

Not a reality. | That reminds me a line from Austin Powers 2 while he is driving through "England": Quote: |
It's amazing how much England in no way looks like Southern California.
