There is a hurricane going towards Florida, have you run back to your parent's home in Atlanta or they send you enough diapers to last through the storm?

We dislike it almost as much as you. It's a good song but it has been waaaaaay overplayed.

I blame its popularity for folks in general thinking of Skynyrd as some kind of joke band. Van Zandt was an incredible lyricist and the entire band could rock a fricking venue - they opened for the Who on a tour one year and blew them out of the water some nights.

Every one of their albums made pre-crash are fricking amazing.

Idk man, Callin Baton Rouge is one of my favorites songs of all time. I don't blame them one bit for using it. It is about their town and it is a great tune. Why wouldn't they play it?

They're Callin' Baton Rouge long distance all the way from Dublin, Ireland. And in Gaelic.
Gaelic Garth Brooks

Wonder if they punctuate it with a Go Tigahs!?

Great song by Mr Petty. He was a true rock legend. I can remember him clear back to Damn The Torpedoes.
