But You Did Sue Me!

This post is mad messed up. Just deal.


I know everyone has been eagerly awaiting the stories from the Skynyrd show last weekend but I wanted to wait till I could post some pictures...more to follow.
FYI to see the framed pictures, right click on them and chose "Show Picture" why it's doing this, I have no idea.

It doesn't take a red-neck hopped up on Wild Turkey and speed to know that Skynyrd rules. Their fans are some of the liveliest of any band anywhere. We met a family that had three generations with them. It was moving. We totally represented the South too. I wore and Alabama t-shirt (Roll Tide!). The J Bizzie had on a Tennesee shirt and Elaine was representing the Lone Star State.
As is tradition with any trip to A-town, we stopped at Yocco's where, for the first time in 20 years I changed my order and found love for the LOVE BURGER. Very fabulous.
When we arrived in Hershey, we immediately started setting up camp. We brought a cooler filled with beers and Jack; chips and salsa. And of course "the box" with a full arsenal of Skynyrd tunes to jam out to during our tail-gate fiesta.
Half way through .38 Special, we finshed our drinks and headed into the show. But we were stopped by security because Elaine had a camera. But it was cool cause we were just like, looks like we can have another beer on our way back. Here's the part where we ran into "the crazies" (we never have an adventure without them)
These guys approched us (one was wearing a t-shirt that said "Girls Lie") and started some drunk small talk. "Girls Lie" guy is blathering on about something and every other word out of his mouth is "tits." Then he procedes to introduce us to his "brother" who isn't really his brother but you know... Apparently, they're still "brothers" even though the one guy SHOT the "Girls Lie" guy in the leg. Oh yeah. They were drunk and playing with guns. These things will happen. So the "Girls Lie" guy turns to the other and says, "ya know, I coulda sued you..." and the other guy says, "You did sue me...." "Yeah, well I coulda sued ya for more....and that bitch wife of yours..." And about now we're just staring at eachother trying not to laugh and these people. Finally, they went away and we laughed and decided going back the car had been more than worth it.


The show was awsome I screamed and sang throught the whole thing. J-man and I danced to "I know a Little." I flashed the peace sign a bunch and when my lighter broke during "Simple Man" (and of course I was crying cause that song always makes me cry) this nice guy gave me his so I wouldn't be without one for Free Bird. It was a real coming together. The crown chanted USA-USA as large shirtless men wrapped in American Flags ran around the audiance. They wre selling cotton candy in the stands (only in PA). It was the greatest. They played most of the songs I wanted to here. They played "MCA" and "Travelin'Man" which was just ridiculous.
Skynyrd Rules. Everyone should go to a Skynyrd show. I'll be damned if it doesn't make ye a better person.
