Today's show is at Alpine Valley Amphitheatre in East Troy, Wisconsin. On August 27, 1990, mere seconds after taking off, the helicopter carrying Stevie Ray Vaughan crashed about ¼ mile from the backstage area. The crash site was just on the other side of the hill you see in the photos below.
A closer view:
I get bummed out every time I come to this place. Rest in peace, Stevie...

How were you able to get a close picture of the area? Is there a mark on the spot on these photos?
I'm told there's a plaque marking the spot of the helicopter crash site, but I've never walked over the hill to see it.
