February 3rd, 1959 is the day Buddy Holly, J P Richardson and Ritchie Valens died in a single engine plane crash near Clear Lake, Iowa.

This event was one of the early tragedies in Rock& Roll history.

At least two movies have been made about the event. The song American Pie is of course probably the most memorable thing about the event.
