      @@michaelolvera7490 I'm a guitar player too. I was born in the 80s and my Dad raised me on southern rock, it's my favorite genre of music. It's just my opinion that it could be country rock because it's rock music based off country like lyrics. Blackberry Smoke is my favorite band ( since 2008) and you can't say they don't have a country vibe to a lot of their tunes. The Outlaws, Skynyrd, Georgia satellites, Whiskey Myers, Brent Cobb, Charlie Daniels band, are all IMO Southern/County rock. It's debatable on Molly Hatchet especially their later years, and Blackfoot.
      I'm from the South and was raised on country and Southern rock, I know what I'm talking about. Southern Rock doesn't necessarily mean a rock band from the south like Pantera or lamb of God. It has to have a country vibe In lyrics with a touch of country playing that gives it that distinct sound that sets it apart from hard rock bands like Aerosmith, Van Halen or Guns N Roses.

      @@michaelolvera7490 Good story. I was raised in North Carolina but moved to Virginia in 2007. One night in late 2008 a couple of friends and I was shooting pool at a decent sized club (maybe room for 100/150 people) with a stage and dance floor in downtown Richmond. After a few beers and games of pool, what I thought was a house/bar band started playing. I really didn't pay much attention at first, but that changed really quick as the opening song was "Sanctified Woman" and moved on to "good one coming on" to "restless". I eventually stopped playing pool all together and focused in on this band, thinking this isn't just a bar band.
      They really just blew me away with Charlie playing on his Les Paul junior, which also happens to be a guitar I own and love to play. I left out of there buying the "little piece of dixie" CD that they were promoting at a merchandise table on the way out and have been following them ever since. I have probably 20 ticket stubs of seeing that band and watching their following grow year by year. They headline amphitheaters around here now.
