<VV> Buddy Holly <was> OK Iowa Goers--You'll Be Safe!

[Vanderlind, Patrick]

 Yes he is. He did our 2004 club spring tour and arranged a visited to the
Surf. Wayne Christgau still has his documented 500k 67. Last I heard the PG
had never been opened up! He is a super guy and I would suggest calling him
at the Surf for a tour.

Wayne Christcow worked at the Surf Ballroom a few years ago, he had a 67
Corvair with over 500K miles.  Anyone know if he is still in the area.  At
one time he lived in Albuquerque and always made the Tri-state after he
moved to Clear Lake.  We haven't seen him in a few years.
