Skynryd was Skynyrd when Ronnie was alive. Just a tribute band after his death.

I saw them at the Hollywood Sportatorium two or three weeks before they crashed. I think if I recall Rush opened up for them.

Wow!.... I never saw them, but the videos really do tell the tale and the music speaks for itself.
What a great body of work they produced before their demise.....:yesnod:

Call me the breeze got me a hell of a speeding ticket one time...I small talked the cop...he ended up not showing for court. Got out of that for a $60, 6 hour defensive driving class. Whoo-wee!

If the officer didn't show up to testify against you, why wasn't your case dismissed? Why did you pay anything?

It doesn't work that way everywhere.

They are playing the Newport Yachting center next weekend. Was going to see them but I have an autocross that day.

I was 18, and the judge told me that SHE was sentencing me to do the class...not sure, but frankly, it was the best $60 I had spent yet. It really made me aware of my surroundings, and that actions have dire consequences....Something I still think about to this day. When I had my Camaro SS, it made me think twice about if I do this, what could/will happen?

It doesn't work that way everywhere.

Exactly. I didn't have to pay a fine, or anything else, just the class. So basically, I consider that dismissed.

Lynyrd Skynyrd is my favorite southern rock band. Saw them 4 times with Ronnie Van Zant and Steve Gaines. I have seen Skynyrd 2 times after the plane crash and they were good but it was just not the same.

I saw them once before the plane crash. Very good show considering it was in a huge stadium. Stadium shows usually suck compared to smaller venues.

It isn't "old" Skynyrd, but check out God and Guns...great song!

[BADRACR1]

Every concert or club I've ever been to when someone asks "What song is it you wanna here?" the cry is always the same.
