Lynyrd Skynyrd is going to be performing on Fox News!

I could listen to Freebird all day and each time it feels like the first time...

[gorgiboy]

It's a hoot! He gets a run for his money. Every once and awhile, he cant help but smile when the spunk comes out! :)

[JohnHuang2]

lol

[gorgiboy]

Havent seen him for over 10 years but used to be a good friend. My life has changed quite a bit since those days.....

[wardaddy]

Were you a west sider?

Did you go to the Jug?

Lynyrd Skynyrd sort of epitomized most long haired southern working class boys of the early 70s....that's why so many of us identified with them and now they are mostly forever young.

[gorgiboy]

No I dont think so. Maybe though - we had a circle of friends and I didnt know them all. I hung around sisters names Tonja and Kim and they brought me around these guys! So many fun memories - had a blast when I was younger! Now I'm listening to "Just a Closer Walk with Thee" - wow...Still having fun though - just in a different way.

[gorgiboy]

No - but my best friends were! I came from Arlington, then Atlantic Beach. Ragtime was my favorite! I always went to parties with these folks, though. The parties were usually in Arlington!

I just found this interview with Barry Harwood. Apparantly, he is living different these days, too.

[JohnHuang2]

HEH! :-)

[gorgiboy]

My girls are 1 and 3 so I have time to teach them how musis used to be! They just dont make music this way anymore! Geez! I think I heard that come out of MY parents' mouths!

[JohnHuang2]

Heads-up -- they're on!

[StoneColdGOP]

Sweet...

[gorgiboy]

Hey - that doesnt look like Leon? He once told me the way to remember his name is that he has a son and each night he kisses him goodnight..."Leon will kiss his son". I'll never forget that! That was probably in 1984-85.

[Liberty Valance]

Amazing new song. Red White and Blue. I was impressed.

[JohnHuang2]

Red, White, and Blue

We don't have no plastic L.A. Frynds,
ain't on the edge of no popular trend.
Ain't never seen the inside of that magazine GQ.
We don't care if you 're a lawyer, or a texas oil man,
or some waitress busting ass in some liquor stand.
If you got Soul
We hang out with people just like you

My hair's turning white,
my neck's always been red,
my collar's still blue,
we've always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we've always been,
Red, White, and Blue

Ride our own bikes To Sturgis
we pay our own dues,
smoking camels, drinking domestic BREWS
You want to know where I have been
just look at my hands
Yeah, I've driven by the White House,
Spent some time in jail.
Momma cried but she still wouldn't pay my bail.
I ain't been no angel,
But even God, he understands.

My hair's turning white,
my neck's always been red,
my collar's still blue,
we've always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we've always been,
Red, White, and Blue

Yeah that's right!

My Daddy worked hard, and so have I,
paid our taxes and gave our lives
to serve this great country
so what are they complaining about

Yeah we love our families, we love our kids
you know it is love that makes us all so rich
That's where were at,
If they don't like it they can just
get the HELL out!

Yeah!

My hair's turning white,
my neck's always been red,
my collar's still blue,
we've always been here
just trying to sing the truth to you.
Yes you could say
we've always been,
Red, White, and Blue

oh..oh..Red, White, and Blue....

Red, White, and Blue

oh..oh....Red, White, and Blue
