“Tuesdays gone” is a much better song imo.
I was given permission to go to Skynards last show at The Fox with my favorite uncle. But mom changed her mind at the last minute.
I was a good 10 year old boy. The reasons she gave was the debauchery I would witness, which I replied by pointing out I saw the same or worse when my parents threw a party.
To this day, we both regret her not letting me go.
“Tuesday’s Gone” is a beautiful song.
Also always liked “Comin’ Home.”
My Skynard favorites
Simple Man
Swamp Music
Four Walls of Raiford
I saw the original band a couple times in my teen years.
The first time they were falling down drunk, drinking Jack Black from the bottle, fighting with each other, and playing like poo. Terrible show.
The next time they came, a year or so later, I still went since I knew they were great. We were right on the stage wall in the days of festival seating, and they didn’t disappoint. It was stunningly awesome, Rossington and Collins trading licks while Ronnie belted it out. And us like 10’-20’ away, in a ~19,000 seat hall.
