Who will ever see it? The site isn't exactly in a neighborhood.

Does the same idiot that had that reunion fiasco on the site about 16 or 17 years ago still own the location?

My home in Louisiana is not far from Gilsburg. Been by there more times than I can count. Those chicken houses are hard to miss.

If by most people you mean anyone not remotely a fan of classic rock or knowledgeable at all about rock music in general. Other than that, they're universally considered one of the GOATs.

No, you're not.

Saw them a couple of years ago w/ ZZ Top.


No, you didn't.

What you saw has zero connection other than Rossington's drunk arse to what ended on that night in Bum-frick, Mississippi.

It's not in the middle of a cow pasture. It's not far off the highway in Gilsburg in the woods in what they call a swamp in Mississippi.. And yeah, many people will go there.

It still amazes me that a pro-gun control, pro-environment, anti-racist band like Lynyrd Skynyrd still has so much love today in the South, in the current environment.

Ronnie Van Zant was a real SJW.

Saturday Night Special
All I Can Do Is Write About It
Ballad of Curtis Lowe
Four Walls Of Raiford

Mr. Banker, too, possibly.


I know one thing, when you see him talking about his life and the world, as he's casting for bass or what not, or just about any random interview, he comes across as someone a lot more deep and thoughtful than the average Poli board participant.

Yes, people drive down a country road and then walk a couple hundred yards along a fence row in the middle of a cornfield to get to the spot where “the music died” a few miles outside of Clear Lake, Iowa.
