If I comment here tomorrow…
Little known fact: Skynyrd were really from Florida not Alabama.
There’s a chance that Florida Man could get away Free as a Bird, but it’s a very small chance.
They might not even be from Florida.They could be heading back to sweet home Alabama.
Shouldn’t that read “Southern Man wanted for…”?
of course it’s in a trailer, of course it is
and it is that trailer that is worth $12,000, not the garbage inside it.
hate on them for being southern white guys who displayed confederate flags, sure, but no matter what it’s a shitty thing to steal memorabilia destined for a cancer charity auction.
The thieves are demanding 78,000 natty light pulltabs to be exchanged for the goods behind the Dollar General that’s 2 minutes off the interstate.
Ha ha ha…no.
When I read “pile of Lynyrd Skynyrd,” I did not expect the next word to be “memorabilia.”
I can’t respond to their white heritage and the violence that “some” folk who have beat me up prescribe to - outsider from the US… I kinda liked their music (Sweet Home Alabama) because of the feel of the music…
I very much like Robbie Fulks and his ironic take and musical talent in telling a more nuanced story. Here he mashes up Leonard Cohen and Lynyrd Skynyrd to “bring together and not divide”:
PLAY FREEBIRD! Yeehaa!
