"...By the end, the audience was on its feet, clapping and dancing along. You don't need to be a Buddy Holly aficionado to understand why."

"...It's tough to build to a big triumphant climax when the audience knows that the protagonist (and two other performers, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper) are going to be killed in a plane crash within hours. Yes, the little big band onstage gives the songs a great workout with horns and multiple backup singers, but impending tragedy makes it difficult to shake off a sense of sadness. That said, the cast really cuts loose on the final two songs, leaving me wishing that they'd done so earlier."
