Just...WOW! Imagine those two things happening to either one of us...or anybody else, for that matter. Reba McIntyre is a true trooper. I don't think I could've gone on after two specific events like those. As I said-The Woman's a real trooper!

[@galeagalvanizer426]

Whew, you had me for a second. Glad Reba's still around! Another survivor is Gloria Estefan, bus and boat accidents. God bless all the road warriors!

[@TheAppalachianSon]

I want to do an “On The Road” episode for sure!

Thanks for the story, I don't remember ever hearing about this.

[@davidkellymitchell4747]

I remember when that happened and always wondered how an experienced jet pilot crashed into a mountain. Thanks for good video on a forgotten tragedy. I'm a musician and some of my friends played in Reba's band a few years before that happened so it hit home with a lot of musicians.

Could be a bit of useless info here, but I read that there was a Stevie Ray Vaughan CD found in the wreckage. SRV is my all time favorite so I thought that was interesting! Love your channel! Much love from Detroit!

[@TheAppalachianSon]

I didn’t come across that! I will look it up. Thank you and I certainly appreciate it

I like Reba, the first song I remember hearing was fancy. I remember the video well. 64 country would come on TV every morning, they played the hits as well as the classics. Wasn't it Waylon Jennings another gave of mines that helped Reba through her grief. Because what he went through when Buddy Holly plane crashed and Buddy, Richie and The Big Bopper all died. Both crashes was devastating. Sad. Reba has a lot great songs. I love her voice. I have many of her CDs as well as all of Greatest Hits CDs. She couldn't change what happened, and it wasn't her fault. It's like survivors guilt.grief takes time. As tragic as it was, it just was not her time. She survived for a reason. Her song I'm a Survivor pretty much shows how she feel, I can relate to that. That was her band, was like Family. She went through shock disbelief. And I'm sure she asked why, not to mention how the family of her band felt. It's like forgiving someone but you don't forget. My heart went out to her. Reba is like Dynamite, small but powerful. Another good video, thumbs up. Love, respect and positivity Always. Vee James.

I just subscribed. I'm the one who told you about Penny DeHaven being from same town as Patsy Cline.

[@mikecarpenter8022]

I'm fan of hers and love all her music and I was in high school when I heard the news about her band

[@cholman4248]

Thank you for adjusting your volume...sound is very quiet. Like what you're doing.

[@khadraabeeb5007]

Reba 😢

[@dewilew2137]

I had no idea about this. 😔

[@DeplorableValor]

It’s called a sacrifice-they do it to get into “the club”

[@ronniemetze6103]

I was born on February 21 1991

[@angelagaddey4182]

My grand father knew the people that went to the last concert
