Brent, Hope your work day goes quick and painless as possible. Needless to say been there done that. I guess all those years of partying prepared us for these moments today. I saw Skynyrd 3 times back in the day and they were a little bit dissappointing if nothing more than I wanted alot more than the 1 to 1 1/2 hr sets which were de rigeur back then. Of course Ronnie got drunk and fell off the stage after about the 6 th song during one show and Marshall Tucker had to come back out and jam with them to fill time. That was the first time they performed Freebird instramental if I'm not mistaken. Anyway when Skynyrd came back the next time I blew them off saying I'll catch them again some other time. I was told Ronnie came on and said "I know we've got a bad reputation in Charlotte and we're here to rectify that." They went on and blew the roof of the Coliseum. The Outlaws came on during Freebird and everybody took a turn during the solo. 6 guitars!!! Talk about a jam for Duane. Peace. ------------------------------------------------- "I can't say I was ever lost, but I was bewildered once for three days." - Daniel Boone
