The Day the Music Died

Changes to the authorised Ceremonial for the Solemnity of the Loss of Buddy Holly, 1959.

For the Absolution, the president may use the words "It doesn't matter anymore"

Notices - "Peggy Sue Got Married"

Response to the words "We need to increase the amount members of the Community give, in these testing times" - "That'll be the day".

Dress Code: Checked suits and thick glasses.


Please note that anyone playing the Don Mclean version of "American Pie" will have the CD confiscated. Anyone playing the Madonna version will have the CD destroyed in the Community microwave, and the CD player fuse removed. And then we'll jump up and down on the CD player. Anyone using MP3 docking stations will be scorned for their use of modern technology and given two bits of flint to bang together until they start to behave better.

God bless you, Buddy. It's still raining in our hearts.
