I think he knew some of those boys before they hit it big.


Not sure about Lynyrd Skynyrd, but I believe he knew Tom Petty and didn't care much for him. Nor did I.


Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.

Rehabilitation is way overrated.

I can't git on board. Mr. Sat. night special was anti gun IMO. And some others, preaching or condescending. Saying Simple Man, slow down don't move to fast, forget your lust for the rich mans gold, and the dying trying to break a record for the most appearances in the least number of days seems so ironic.

But,,,, telling Neil Young to Fugg off was enjoyable & the guitar duo's, trios' in "That Smell" are the fugging bomb for sure.

Pros & Cons I guess.

The picture on the front of that albumn was taken in Jonesboro Georgia in front of the old railroad station. Jonesboro was the where the mythical town of Tara in gone with the wind was supposed to be. It’s also where a lot of Smoky and the Bandit was filmed. The place was a nice quiet rural town…then the Olympics came to Atlanta in 96 and all the projects were torn down in Atlanta and it’s residents were moved to that area. It’s now a ghetto [bleep]. Just a quick history lesson. I retired from there as a Paramedic. Mogadishu of Georgia

most of the lads went to Robert E. Lee high school in Jacksonville. The principal was Mr. Pomfrey at the time. The kids called him 'powder blue'. Skinner was a gym teacher and if I recall, got the lads suspended for hair length or something like that.

Thanks for the correction. How cool would it be to have one of the biggest rock bands of all time named after you?

What exactly would you call it?

"Mister Saturday Night Special
Got a barrel that's blue and cold
That ain't good for nothin'
But puttin' men six feet in a hole
Oh, that's the Saturday Night Special
For 20 dollars, you can buy yourself one too
Here it comes
Oh, lemme tell you all about it
Hand guns are made for killin'
They ain't no good for nothin' else
And if you like to drink your whiskey
You might even shoot yourself
So why don't we dump 'em, people
To the bottom of the sea
Before some old fool come around here
Wanna shoot either you or me?"

You know their stance on the 2nd amendment don’t you? Otherwise, I love their music.
