Alanbama's post was dead on accurate, certainly no pun intended. Humans are pattern seeking animals, and one could just as easily come up with these two instead of threes:
1. February 3, 1959: Charles Hardin Holley, Richard Steven Valenzuela, Jiles Perry Richardson.
2. March 5, 1963: Virginia Patterson Hensley, Lloyd Estel Copas, Harold Franklin Hawkins.
Amongst this six, not one used the name onstage that they were given at birth.
OK, you could certainly say that Roger Peterson was not a star, but can you really say the same about Randy Hughes, Copas' son-in-law who was piloting the ill-fated plane in 1963? He was hardly unknown in Nashville circles, having recorded "Roll On Freight Train" and was quite prominent in the Country Music capitol as a music publisher. Doesn't that make four stars in 1963?
