2008, I think.

But my dad saw them with me, and he saw them in Baton Rouge way back when they were popular and he said it wasn't much better


Well of course they wouldn't sound as good circa 2008. The majority of those groups no longer have more than a couple of the original members still playing with them.

I think they are gritty and heavy, but they are definitely a few steps behind most of their predecessors (e.g. Outlaws, Blackfoot, Marshall Tucker Band, etc.) when it comes to songwriting.

See, normally this would be the case, but Marshall Tucker Band opened for them and their show was surprisingly pretty good. But that's what I would expect from a mid to lower top tier Southern Rock band
