There’s a lot. I would have to say this. I grew up close to Robert E. Lee high school where van Zandt, Rossington, and Collins went to school. It was hallowed ground. I remember checking out where different guys lived, grew up.
The plane crash had happened four years earlier when I started highschool on the Jacksonville West Side. There was no escaping Lynyrd Skynyrd, even though we listened to a lot. Even though Skynyrd was on hiatus all through my high-school years.
I was full in. Hard to believe. Had my “confederate flag” just like they blazed at concerts and on some of their logos. I even took one to college. A Cuban guy and a black guy in my suite called me out on it. Made a house call. Sat their asses down in my room and wanted an explanation. I ended up tossing it after I got educated. I was no southerner anyway…
Now I listen to Derek Trucks for that Jacksonville, FL, blues, southern rock, thing. Especially with Susan Tedeschi.
