Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

    Sad day.

    "Social media gives legions of idiots the right to speak when they once only spoke at a bar after a glass of wine, without harming the community [...] but now they have the same right to speak as a Nobel Prize winner. It's the invasion of the idiots."

    I had tickets to there show in Greenville (the show before the flight to Baton Rouge). I had just seen them in Columbia and opted to not go in order to study for a big test. Don't regret it but wished I had gone. Those boys were the best....oh and any southerner should always stand for Free Bird.....the Southern National Anthem.

    I was working at the college radio station and watched as the details came in on the 110 baud teletype machine.  Still remember it as if it was yesterday.

    Caught them a few months earlier at a Day on the Green in Oakland on July 2, 1977.  Outlaws, Santana, Frampton & Lynyrd Skynyrd headlined.  Growing up in the south Freebird was/is an anthem for a lot of us.

    Disagree? I surely didn't expect that from a Southerner. That's blasphemy Robin @northGAcock
