That sounds good to me. I know that TOPFUEL is holding out for his Rue Paul card though.

A little info--> --DJ Recalls Tossing Coin That put Valens on Plane, Deaths of Stars Later Became TV Anchor in Lexington-- Bob Hale couldn't have known it at the time, but his simple toss of a quarter changed the lives of two men and rock 'n rock forever. Hale, who emceed the Winter Party Tour concert that night in Clear Lake, Iowa, says he tossed the coin that determined if Ritchie Valens or Tommy Allsup was going to ride on the plane with Buddy Holly and J.P. Richardson "I remember saying, I have a quarter, Ritchie, you call it," Hale said in a telephone interview from Clear Lake, Iowa, this weekend. "He called heads. I said, 'OK, Ritchie, you're flying.'" Contrary to other stories associated with the coin toss, Hale says the decision about who was flying that night was made during an intermission between the first and second acts. Hale says that he was talking with Allsup when Valens came up and begged Allsup to let him take his place on the plane. "Can I pay you to let me take your place?" Hale recalls Valens asking. "I tell you what, Ritchie said, 'let's flip for it.'" Ritchie and Allsup "had stage pants on and didn't have any change," Hale says. "That's why I tossed the coin."
