    Stevie Ray Vaughn…

    It’s been over 20 years? August 27, 1990 Guitar legend Stevie Ray Vaughn passed away in a helicopter crash. He was only 35. His legend lives on in downtown Austin, Texas with a statue in his honor located at Auditorium Shores. When in Austin take a stroll around Auditorium Shores. It’s a beautiful park with lots to see near beautiful downtown Austin.  Stevie Ray Vaughn keeps a watchful eye over downtown Austin. Peace, Love, and Rhythm and Blues,
