I was just about to edit to say that, his name is Leonard Skinnard.

I made this post because many think that Lynyrd Skynyrd is actually a person that is the lead singer of a band.

If I met anybody that thought this, I would probably punch them in the face and then bang their girlfriend in front of them. Bareback.

This must really bother you. Wow, it got it's own thread. I'm going to start telling everyone Lynyrd is the lead singer.

L.S. was NOT a singer or band member. He was a shop teacher at the high school 3 members attended. Was a popular and unique character that had an impact on their lives. I heard them tell this on a TV show after the plane crash that killed 2 or 3 of them, including the lead singer. His brother took his place. I was surprised, I always thought he was the lead guitar player , not so. Was a teacher.

Before Leonard Skinner was revealed to be an actual person, I always assumed the name was based on the following from the song "Hello Muddah, hello Fadduh":

I went hiking with Joe Spivy
He developed poison ivy
You remember Leonard Skinner
He got ptomaine poisoning last night after dinner.

He was a PE coach and the band hated him. He was clean cut and always made fun of and insulted their long hair ways
