a bet my friend and I have ...

[InsnlyTklshF]

My friend has a bet with me and I keep telling her that the eagles did NOT sing sweet home alabama ... and that it was lynard skynard. We are not looking on the internet cause I know I'm right. I told her that 3 members of the band died in 1977 on the plane and woops there she goes again saying differently. God how I wish she knew I was into tickling cause I sware I would have one of you do it!

You are right on both counts here.I don't know how old you and your friend are,but i was around in those days.

 

[isabeau]

you are definitely right. and i loved Lyndryd Skyndrd..

Sweet Home, Alabama was written in retaliation for a song by Neil Young called "Southern Man", or something similar..

 

[ChosenofMystra]

You are indeed correct! Although The Eagles out-rock Lynard Skynard any day of the week in my humble opinion

 

[kered]

You win the bet! I was around back then too.

Yes.....The Eagles "Desparado" out-rocks Lynyrd Skynryd's "Saturday Night Special".

I'm a Skynyrd fan.

Gimmie 3 Steps... boy can I relate to that one!
The Ballad of Curtis Lowe. Lotta heart in that song.


Southern rock - terrific stuff! Need convincing? - just listen to 38 Special some evening.

heh I dunno about that 🙂 I've always been a fan of British progressive rock (Jethro Tull, Supertramp) myself.

Although Stevie Ray Vaugen does indeed kick some serious ass 😀

plane crash was in mississippi

the plane crash was in pike county mississippi three of the two fatalities were lead singer ronnie van zandt and backup singer cassie gaines idont recall the other one.what was so spooky about that crash was the last song they recorded was the song "that smell". the opening line was whiskey bottles brand new cars oak tree your in my way. well the plane crashed into a giant oak tree how weird is that.

Jethro Tull is one of my favorite groups. Great stuff! (Suptertramp is great too.) But to me, southern rock is a different genre altogether.
