Does aShenyone here consider themselves "classic rock savy"? I ask because I was riding in the car the other night when a commercial for the Lynard Skynard tour came on the radio. My fiancee turned to me and said "Id LOVE to see them in concert." What makes this statement funny is the fact that she loves their early work. I turned to her a smiled saying something like "well that might be kind of hard." She asks why and calls me a liar after I told her that it's not the same group of people performing, due to the fact that half of the band was KILLED IN A PLANE CRASH. So this sparked a whole argument and so she calls her dad who proceeds to tell her that I'm an idiot (bad history there) and that yes they are the real Lynard Skynard and that there was no crash. I printed the info off of the internet and showed her. She tells her dad (who I'm guessing had googled it in the meantime) and he went off on some tangent about how he never said this or said that. You have to understand his type... He one of those veterans (which I totally respect) that think he's infallible because he's had "life experience" (I'm 22). He's the same clown that thinks Glass Onion was not a Bealtes song. So I just got off the phone with her and she told me that her father had some radio DJ call her to report that he was right and I was wrong. Yep he's one of those guys. Now did I take a bottle of crazy pills this morning, or am I right? All I want to know is - Is the band that is touring now the same one from 1974 when Sweet Home Alabama was recored?
