On this day in history 1963, Patsy Cline performed her last show ever before dying at the age of 30. But it was the events that happened in the ensuing weeks (and years) that were truly notable. and, well, weird.

On March 3, 1963, Patsy Cline traveled to Kansas City to perform three shows as part of a benefit for the family of disc jockey Cactus Jack Call, Matt Bosher Jersey who'd recently died in a car accident. Sharing the stage with her that day were such notable performers as George Jones, www.nflfalconsofficial.com/Nike-Harry-Douglas-Jersey.html Billy Walker, Dottie West, Cowboy Copas and Hawkshaw Hawkins.

Friends West, June Carter Cash and Loretta Lynn have all since recalled Cline telling them in the months preceding this performance that she felt a sense of impending doom, and didn't expect she would live much longer. She even began distributing her personal items to friends, and making plans for her will and the care of her children.

Cline was no stranger to grievous Matt Bryant Women Jersey injury. Before her death, she'd been in two major car accidents. Not long after the www.nflfalconsofficial.com/Nike-William-Moore-Jersey.html birth of her son, she and her brother were involved in a head on collision in Nashville, the second of three serious accidents she was to endure in her lifetime. Cline was thrown into the windshield and badly injured. Her close friend, country singer Dottie West, was one of the first to arrive to the scene and rode with Cline in the ambulance, picking glass from her hair as she insisted the car's other driver be treated before her. Cline suffered a serious cut across her forehead (which she later covered with wigs and makeup), as well as a broken wrist, dislocated hip and injured ribs that affected Matt Bryant Youth Jersey her ability to hit the notes on initial recordings of what would become one of her biggest hits, "Crazy."

But Cline for the most part recovered from that accident, quickly returning to the studio and stage, and became one of the highest paid and most respected female musicians of her time, enjoying multiple crossover successes on the country and pop charts and rubbing elbows with movers and shakers of her time including Elvis Presley, Matt Bosher Red Jersey whom she referred to as "Big Hoss." Not quite three years after the accident that threatened to derail her career and almost took her life, Cline took the stage at the Kansas City benefit, though she was ill with the flu. She closed the 8PM show to thunderous applause, performing one of her newest songs, "I'll Sail My Ship Alone," before preparing to return home to Nashville, to her husband and two young children.
