I wonder what Ronnie would have said if someone had told him that night in 1976 that we'd still be listening to his music in 2024...? I can only imagine that his response might have been something like "They better be." Loved and missed, for sure. Thank you for posting this. Hugs

Seemed like we really hit it off and alot of the time he would put his arm around me if he happened to look at someone else to speak , like he didn't want me to get away. I invited him to my home for soup beans and cornbread and he said they had to leave right after the show or he would surely take me up on home cooking. He even showed me his glass eye , he lost in a go cart wreck after the plane crash . When I heard he had died it felt like I had lost a friend !!!!!!

Seriously, the opening act was Point Blank, then 38 Special and then Ted Nugent. Skynyrd then ripped through the whole One More From the Road album. I still have all of my Ticket Stubs from back in the day before Ticketmaster. Back then it was Sound Seventy productions that sold the tickets. The Skynyrd ticket was only Ten dollars. Best Ten Dollars I ever spent!!!!

This was the Sunday night show. Skynyrd was originally going to play 2 nights at Winterland (Fri & Sat) but had to add the 3rd night when those shows sold out so fast. I was at the Friday night show and it was awesome (as usual) even though this was the period right after Ed King had left the group and before Steve Gaines was added so they only had Gary and Allen on guitars. They still tore it up, the Outlaws opened for them and they were tremendous as well. I was lucky enough to see the band 3 times before the tragic plane crash. Gary used to actually play a lot of lead back then compared to the role he has in the present incarnation of Skynyrd.

@seanbryant-smith56629 ай бұрын
Yes. I think they weren't afraid to be bold & innovative how they played. Like when they got Billy boy honky tonken his piano. It made them whole & added to their original line-up. Their guitarists are so renowned for their nearly freestyling way of playing. Switching from lead to rhythm & lengthy plays between lyrics & other subtle changes. Blending out for piano to lead were master strokes in their unique style still marvelled at today. Free Byrd is a ballad. Lyrics succinctly telling a story are short. These guys got the stones to come up with guitar solos that play twice as long as the song itself. Amazing concept showcasing enormous talent possessed by Lynard Skynard.

@ Andy I like Collins' energy and showmanship.. but I love Rossington's smooth, silky style. That's why this band is a prime example of the ultimate musical amalgam. RVZ would have been a nobody without this great backing band.. and this band would have been nothing without RVZ's vocals. They all came together to make one of the best Southern Rock bands in history. I don't think you can say that one band member is better than another.

Sad...Rossington said when Ed left, him and Allen were THE only guitars...and they had to fill in for Where Ed left off and try to fill that HOLLOW assed hole....anyway..Its all a shame losing THIS band, the way we lost them....sad assed...

They were due to be in my town in Nov but obviously that never happened. I am super grateful I got to see RCB in 1980. They kicked ass & most of the surviving guys were there. Got to see Gary & Allen tearing it up, Billy Powell, I loved his piano, that boogie woogie southern thing he did so well so grateful for that. They played instrumental Free Bird w/a spotlight on mic as 50,000 grown men & women sobbed & hugged each other. One of the biggest outpouring of love I have ever been a part of

My sentiments exactly. Ronnie said he would not see 30 years of life , and said it many times to many people. Try to find bad lyrics that no one should hear. Look at Metallica for example. I did and it blew my mind. Look at " The god that failed ". Ronnie was saved the way Jesus said. If you believe that God sent his Son to die for all of our sins , was murdered , rose from the dead and is at the Right hand of the Father. Romans 10:9 says ( " That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. That's pretty simple. You will still sin but you will be more aware when you do. You don't become sinless. You become sin-less. You don't have to do nothing else. You are SAVED FROM ETERNAL HELL and separation from God. I used to drink gallons of beer everyday. Now I drink 1-3 a week , sometimes none. Doing it doesn't convict or bother me . The KJV Bible says your good to go until you lose your faculties ( Drunk ). If you lose your faculties after 3 or four beers then you need not drink. I know I am rambling but it's the most important thing a person needs to 100% positive about. God made us and we play by his rules or our rules and we lose , every time! If I'm wrong and we all die like dogs and feel nothing at death and cease to exist then we're good to go! But if I'm right according to the Holy Bible ............then I have gained it all , living with God and Christ in Heaven forever and ever and ever. ETERNITY!!!!!! And I will see my precious Mama and the others! " “Hallelujah Praise God Almighty For those that have ears to hear let them hear , and for those with eyes to see let them see! p.s. Ronnie had the Holy Spirit in him. There is no other explanation for him foretelling his death. Listen to the song Raiford !
