It's exciting and refreshing to listen to new rock. And I like a lot of it - Filter, Vertical Horizon, Stabbing Westward... I even enjoy some Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock.
-
I love Eric Clapton and what he did with Cream; 'Spoonful' and 'Crossroads,' those are probably the coolest solos.
-
Our parents helped us, or we wouldn't be here. Lacy Van Zant and my mother used to sign for amps or loan us money to get to the gig or take us in their car. It's just like little sports guys - Little League and football players - whose parents help them. That's why they get good.

Hank Junior fans are Skynyrd fans.
-
On our Web site, we have people complaining about us not playing new stuff. But there's so many classic Lynyrd Skynyrd songs, you can't go out and just do a bunch of new things.
-
'Freebird' is an anthem, and 'Simple Man' is a very nice song.
-
It's for the common people, people who have made this great country of ours. That's what the heck I say we always write about.
-
In Lynyrd Skynyrd, we always got our recognition.
-
I think people who really want to do something do it. No matter what. And they won't quit until they do it.

My dad was a musician, played on the road and played all of his life. And I grew up in a musical family. I heard it all. I mean, I got accustomed to listening to Roy Acuff and all the old guys. It was really cool for me growing up in a family like that.

We loved Neil Young and all the music he's given the world.
-
I like George W. At a time when this country was hit hard, he stood up for America. He's been the leader of the free world during the hardest time America's ever had.
-
Through the years, people like the KKK and skinheads kinda kidnapped the Dixie or Southern flag from its tradition and the heritage of the soldiers.
-
So many artists try to be something that they're not.
-
When you're 17, touring is fun.
-
We always joke that our road crew will have to wheelchair us up onstage soon because this is what we do. This is what we love to do. This is what God put us on earth to do until the day we take our last breath.
-
We have a song called 'Skynyrd Nation.' It's just about what our fans are, what they do in getting ready for the show.
-
Every redneck's dream is to write a song and have it go on a fishing show.
-
I'd rather sit in Jacksonville and do a different kind of work than get messed over.
-
This is America, and everybody should have a right to say what they want to say. But I think there's a time and a place for it.
-
t's all these young country bucks doing Skynyrd songs, which is pretty cool to us.
-
If people can't relate to something, there's no use of the song being there.
-
We're musicians; we're not politicians or anything.

I've always used the Peavey Mace equipment. I've got a few of them. They're kind of like Marshalls. You know, we used to use Marshalls, but Peaveys just seem to last longer and push the sound better.
