is that PETA = People Eating Tasty Animals???? Naw. They had the real PETA link. That's why I'm so ashamed.

Is Hughie Thomason still playing with Skynyrd? For the past several years their guitar line up has been Rossington/Medlocke/Thomason. He didn't play at the Superbowl preshow on CMT and I couldn't find him on the website then.
An Outlaws reunion tour would be fun!

I don't know, but it wouldn't be the same without Billy.

I just wondered if purists would consider 38 Special a southern rock band because of their mainstream hits I wouldn't think so. A few of the Southern Rock bands had mainstream hits.

I love Whippin' Post and was glad to see Greg Allman make it a success. What pleases me is when the old farts in music make comeback songs.

Another so-called history of southern rock program that will no doubt ignore Drive By Truckers, Lucero and other current acts.

I believe you're thinking of Leon Wilkeson. Billy Powell, the pianist is still alive and kicking.

I've seen this semi-documentary twice now. VERY well-done and informative as to how this genre of Rock evolved.
I really enjoyed it!

Danny Joe Brown just passed away. The new Hatchet lineup is not the original.
To: jmc813; stuartcr
Billy and Gary are the last living members of the original lineup. Leon passed away in 2001, IIRC.
Artimus is still playing in his own band.
To: GSWarrior
celebrates newer bands like Drive-By Truckers who have inherited the Southern rock mantle There's a nod to DBT in the article.

We obviously are not be talking about the same group. I'm talking about The Outlaws, from Tampa.

The Outlaws are another hard rockin' southern rock band!
To: stainlessbanner
"Green Grass and High Tides" is one of my favorite "Outlaws" songs.
Some good music from Charlie Daniels that is usually not on radio stations includes:
"Birmingham Blues" from the Nightrider album and
"No Place Left to Go" live version from the Fire on the Mountain album. "Cabillo Diablo" from that same album is still one of my favorites. Alot of great guitar! Rock on Mt. Juliet man.
