I'm glad I was single then and in my thirties then. Women were women and men were men. Both sexes knew the rules and played by them without being offended and triggered.
Thank you for posting this, Brock. I was 21 years old then and this was and is the best rocking music I have ever heard played. We thought we were crazy then. Now look at how we have devolved.
No phones No cameras The generation Viet Vets and protesters, Free love, Freedom to live. Last Generation before the their children and grandchildren destroyed music and freedom.
Hi Brock, Took my Peggy to see Lynyrd when they came to Fayetteville some years ago now.... We were stoked!! As we were driving there Peggy said,"This the first time someone has taken me to a Concert!!" "Most glad I'm the one!!!" I replied!! In a few days... on St. Pat's I'll be at "Paul's Place" hearing the "Reading of the Names" (Those souls who have departed us) It's a tradition now... Peggy's name is on the list.... skybill
I was a 22 yr old GI stationed in Bamberg, West Germany at the time. Free Bird was our unofficial anthem; a 100% certainty that on any weekend somebody would be playing it at full volume. I grieve for what has been lost - the True, the Good, and the Beautiful. I grieve for those, the following generations that do not have the slightest clue as to what the cultural Marxists have stolen from them. As for cultural Marxists I can say one thing - the ONLY good Marxist is a DEAD Marxist. BTW, notice a certain flag in the background and not a single person caring (getting triggered or offended). Some thing you will never see again on stage.
Saw them that year in my hometown of Jackson Mississippi. Back then that music and that Big Beautiful Flag were all just a part of who we were. Glad to have lived when I did! Thanks
Wonderful! Tolerance and Peace! No NAZI/Commie storm troops coming in to shutdown the concert and take down the Confederate Flag which everyone knew was Southern Pride. --Ron W

Thank you for the memories and too bad the world isn't as it was back them.

ReplyDeleteGlad to have lived when I did!
DeleteAs was I and should have died earlier. :(
The only tattoo I saw in the crowd was on a guy's arm. No tats or tackle on the beautiful all-American girls. Those days are long gone.
ReplyDelete& no make up. :)

ReplyDeleteYou can just imagine what would have happened if they did at that time.
