Play it pretty for Atlanta (http://www.last.fm/music/Lynyrd+Skynyrd/_/Free+Bird+(live)) (and the rest of the world, too...)

You named your band after your gym coach? Yes, they did. And man could their twin lead guitars rock! The band certainly faced a lot of difficulties during their career including the bus crash which killed the lead singer and a couple more. Bunch of good ol' boys! Live hard. Play hard.

I didn't realize what happened to the band. What a bummer that must have been for all their fans.
