Nos that is a rock show right there!

[@rockinggator969]

Indeed. Still rocking after all these years.

Don Barnes has held up real well thanks for the upload

[@rockinggator969]

I totally agree. For 70 years old, he sings damn well and still has his guitar chops. Glad you enjoyed the video. I uploaded 12 songs from that concert, all there in my channel. Check them out if you haven't already.

@@rockinggator969 will do growing up in Texas I had to love Southern Rock from the Allman brothers to Lynyrd Skynyrd to .38 Special my wife and I have been to the swamps of Mississippi where that plane went down in . 77 something to see now one thing stuck out they were all under the age of 30 they must have felt invincible.

[@vagpap85]

well the song is downtuned, but would be for many singers this age difficult to sing, he s doing very well nevertheless, his tone is still strong and consistent,

[@pattylovesbenj]

This song was the mantra of my 1980s mind-set. Thank you for posting.

[@rockinggator969]

I am glad you found the video! They were so big in the 80's, lots of good memories from then!

[@Fester-x2t]

I seen them live last fall and their coming around again next Friday night. I can't wait to see them again. It was one hit after another and they sounded great! Don and his band were fantastic!

[@rockinggator969]

I saw them twice in one year as well. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@vincegedeon6583]

💯

[@rockinggator969]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@scottwall4669]

Wow!!! saw them in 1981. This singer still rocks!!! Where is the guy with the black skimmer hat?

[@miguelhidalgo9372]

Mr. Donnie Van Zant , the younger brother of Lynyrd Skynyrd co-founder, retired due to hearing and health concerns.

[@jiemda3]

No disrespect to Mr. Van Zant but Mr. Barnes is and always will be 38 Special.

[@rockinggator969]

It's really the two of them together that built the band. It's too bad Donnie Van Zandt had to quit. We are lucky that Don Barnes is still carrying the torch.
