    Default Southern Rock Fans: Skynyrd or the Allmans?

    As there is a rivalry 'twixt fans of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, so there is a similar, yet far more vicious, rivalry between the Allman Bros. fans and Lynyrd Skynyrd fans. Now, granted, you can kinda like one if you love the other, but you just can't love both. It takes an entirely different ind of person to love each band.

    I must cast my vote for Skynyrd. As good as "Trouble No More" is, Skynyrd is THE Southern Rock band. Even those who will vote for the Allman Bros. have to admit that.

    (No "Gah", by the way; because if you don't like Southern rock, you suck. And if you can't decide... flip a coin or something.)

    I seem to recall a certain SFTS who is obsessed with Skynard. Hence Skynard must be awesome.

    So Skynard it is.

    If you vote the Allman brothers the terrorists win.

    Meatball how could you even put the two in the same zip code. That to me is the utterly disgusting part. Why is this even a question?

    There is more soul and music in the Chrous of Simple Man than all the Allmans Albums. This is heresy.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    Nonsense. I was going to Skynyrd and Allman Brothers concerts probably when Strikes' Daddy was in diapers. I love 'em both, so tie me to the whipping post and gimme back my bullets while I eat a peach and flip you off some free bird.

    Skynyrd. I pretty much only listen to hip hop but whenever someone puts on skynyrd i like it. And i'm not even Southern!
    Do you hate Drug Cartels? Do You believe that the Drug War is basically a failure? Do you think that if we Legalized the Cannabis market, that use rates would drop, we could put age limits on cannabis, tax it, and other wise regulate it? Join The ORG Marijuana Policy Project!

    In American politics, similar to British politics, we have a choice between being shot in our left testicle or the right testicle. Both parties advocate pissing on the little guys, only in different ways and to a different little guy.

    Skynyrd obviously. The Allman's may well have rivaled them, but what's his name OD'd too early.

    How's this even a question? Lynard is da man.

    Skynyrd's for wimps!!!

    Just kidding both are great bands but I like the Allman Brothers more
    "No one said it was gonna be easy! If it was, everyone would do it..that's who you know who really wants it."

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    Nobody OD'd... Duane Allman was killed in a motorcycle accident. And Ronnie Van Zant died in a plane crash.
