After Holly's death, The Crickets got a new singer, Ronnie Smith, who hung himself. The next singer with the Crickets, Davis Box, eventually went solo and, in 1964 died in a plane crash at the age of 22 (same age)
The Crickets next singer, Bobby Fuller, was beaten to death in 1966. The last song he recorded before his death was written by Buddy Holly.
Marc Bolan, Guitarist for T-Rex was killed in a car crash in 1977. There was an ink pen in his car with Buddy Holly's name on it.
In 1978, The Buddy Holly Story, starring Gary Busey as Holly hit the theaters. The screen writer committed suicide. Gary Busey bought a guitar owned by Holly and shortly thereafter was involved in a near fatal motorcycle accident.
