In 2000, when I was 16 and a junior in high school I had this awesome history teacher. Anyways, I finally ordered a Lynyrd Skynyrd t-shirt from some magazine and got it in the mail. So he's taking attendance one day and goes "Dan (me) is wearing a Lynyrd Skynyrd shirt. I saw them here in Chicago right before the plane went down." That was so badass. From then on we always discussed good music. He had seen Skynyrd, Zeppelin, etc., etc.

Cool story. It's great how music connects people. Never saw them live, but have been listening to them since the first album came out. Pick up "Free Bird - The Movie" (dvd) if you want to see some great live performances (the original band), and One More From The Road (Deluxe Edition c.d.) is also essential to have if you like these guys.
