Patrice is a funny ****. I used to love it when he would be on Redeye back when Greg Gutfeld hosted. Now it sucks.

Talk about some killer guitar riffs, hell, just smokin' hot guitar in general. Don't really have to agree with the message, might just ignore the song because of the band, just listen to it. The music is killer.

Doesn't get much better than that, especially when god is playing guitar (don't mean that to be blasphemous against the actual GOD, but Duane playing is pretty special. Considered by most enthusiast as at least A god on the guitar. ) Rock on Skydog.

In the next couple of weeks we find out if my second daughter made valedictorian. She could be 1, 2, or 3. Other than playing sports she has self dedicated her past 3 years for this. She is so amazing. So dedicated. I never stayed home on a Saturday night past the age of 15 to do any homework. She stays up till 2am. She has this insane internal drive to compete against everyone in everything. She's going to Texas A&M in the fall to double major in business and pre-med before becoming a surgeon.
She's gonna take care of me in my old age. She's the coolest kid I know. And while all my kids are great and special there's just something about this one. She's the kind of person I wish I could have been but it's better because she's my daughter and I get to enjoy seeing her do it.
Whether she's 1, 2, or 3 in her class I'll be proud because I know she will have done everything she possible could have done and didn't leave anything in the court so to speak.
5'2" tall and never let it stop her from playing any sport she wanted. I'm gonna miss her pretty bad.

She will always be the first choice, because whether she's 1st or 2nd or 3rd, she works harder than any of the others, and she doesn't quit. It's why she'll always be my favorite of your kids.

Frankly because she was behind by a few hundredths of a point and this is only one of 7 overall semesters I'm preparing for her to be third. She's gonna be in a bad mood.

You ought to teach her how to shoot long range. I think she'd love it. She's got the tenacity and patience to excel at it.

That old man upstairs, He wears a crooked smile
Staring down on the chaos he created
He said son if you ain't having fun just wait a little while
Momma's gonna wash it all away
And she thinks mercy's overrated. .

And while I am at it, one of the coolest covers ever still.
and an interesting article regarding that song and how it is considered the birth of southern rock (via help from the Beatles) http://www.murfreesboropost.com/vins...rock-cms-27645
and this is a super interesting read, but specifically page 42 forward.

Butch and Jaimoe together created a sound that was so unique that it just moved me.

This about sums up what I've always said about them and how Duane's playing didn't come from his fingers, it came from his soul.
And I love this. Especially the part about Gregg
It was onstage, where the group's ability to meld into one unit – when they were "hitting the note," to use a phrase they said often in the Seventies – was best on display. "Hittin' the note is reaching that point where you can't do any wrong," Trucks once said, according to Skydog. "With us, when we're playing music, it's where the brain goes away and the body just does what it's supposed to do, and there's no thought and there's no question, and no matter what you do, it's right. It's getting to that spiritual level where the communication is total, but it's not mental."
In an interview with Rolling Stone last year, Trucks reflected on the Allman Brothers Band's unexpected status as headliners. "We were in another universe," he said. "We were out spreading the gospel of this music we had discovered. We never thought that we would be more than an opening act. Atlantic Records was riding our *** constantly to get Gregg out from behind the organ, stick a salami down his pants and jump around the stage like Robert Plant. We told them to go **** themselves. 'We're playing this for ourselves. We've tried it your way before. We didn't make any money and we had a miserable time.'
"[By the time of the Fillmore East show], we decided, 'OK, we don't care if we don't make any money. We're having the time of our lives,'" he continued. "Little by little, people started understanding what we were doing. But it had to start with us. Once the crowd got in and we could feed on their energy, we'd feed it back to them."
