Well Stevie Ray Vaughan did just that, in the nick of time. Then he's killed by something that was out of his hands. In recent years I've heard that Clapton gave up his seat on the helicopter for SRV, I have to think that's fabricated. That sounds too much like Waylon Jennings giving Buddy Holly his seat on the ill-fated plane in Iowa.
