Wish the Allmans came by themselves like they have in the past. Skynard is not even close to as good of a show and takes time away.

^ were you at the concert last year? skynyrd blew allman brothers out of the water, i love the allmans, but they don't put on much of a "show" at all, which is why over half the audience left after they played a few songs

^the same would have happened if ABB opened. All the ABB fans (approx 1/2) would have left after a few songs.

anyways, moe. has 90 minute set before the allmans at jones beach and that's where i'll be seeing them.

Whoa, what concert were you at?

The Skynyrd set was absolutely nothing special. I saw them at Walnut Creek back in '01 and thought that was a much better performance than last year's. ABB, on the other hand, was fucking amazing.

I think its two different breeds of music listeners. The Allmans love the traditional, blues-like sound and w/t trucks they have found a way to keep people coming back. Skynard on the other hand has sounded flat, careless, and very mainstream the 2 times I have seen them. Allmans have been coming to raleigh for something like 18 straight years, they like it here and always play a good show.

It was fun seeing Skynyrd. But I have no desire to see them again. To me, it's one of those things you have to do once. They play all their hits, you sing along, but that's about all there is to it. And that Red, White, and Blue song was laughably ignorant.

I wanna see ABB with only ABB playing, so I can hear even more ABB.


Anyway, just checked the abb site, and the don't have tour dates listed past august, but it can't be too much longer before they announce.

I don't care about seeing some guy dance around in a circle when he plays guitar.

I went to last year's concert in Raleigh and Charlotte. Skynyrd played the EXACT same set, I mean the only thing that was different was "Charlotte" instead of "Raleigh-Durham". And the security in Raleigh sucked majorly, we had drunk South Carolina confederate boys all over the place and security kept having to come and get people outta there it was very distracting. I prefer ABB but that may be because I love Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes (Gov't Mule). I think they really bring justice to the band even if some of the original members are no longer together. ABB outplayed Skynyrd hands down in my opinion, but like I said, I'm biased.

Trucks is awesome. You're right about the Gov't Mule addition. It seems they have new life. I may stay out in the parking lot and drink more to avoid the Skynard crowd.

Oh well, I'll still be there.

Buy "Under the Influence" a Jam Band Tribute to Skynyrd.

Drive By Truckers playing "Every Mother's Son" is completely bad-ass.

You're right about Haynes, but I am refering to him and Trucks. Guess I should have made it clear. Whatever, I'm ready for a good show.

From the looks of the ABB site, it appears the Raleigh show is the only show around that time with Skynyrd. If that's really the case, I may try and make the Charlotte show.... or both

ABB is so much better then anything and I do mean anything happening in music today. While I love Skynyrd to death, they only play their popular stuff which is nothing other than I, IV, V power cords usually. When you go to the Skynyrd show, you dont hear the hard blues that they came out with that can be really technical (maybe because Collins and Gains are gone), because the crowd dosent want to hear it. The bottom line is that ABB is about brilliant playing, and Skynyrd is about having fun. But the bands are linked together and were friends back in the day. Skynyrd dedicated Free Bird to Duane Allman when he died.
