"We wrote this next one about growing up on the road," said Paul. "We were pretty young and we had some really good teachers to watch over us. This was written about when we'd be on the road with The Marshall Tucker Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd and sometimes with our good friends the Allman Brothers and of course Charlie Daniels. This one's called, "It's About Pride." This was the first tune of the evening featuring the duel lead guitar harmonies which the group is well known for and the now standing audience showed their approval with thunderous applause, cat calls and lots of hoots and hollers.
After a brief pause, drummer Monte Yoho began the familiar intro to the classic instrumental, "Waterhole" as the already dancing zealots began to sing the guitar parts in unison. Yoho showed off his incredibly tasty ability as he played the drum solo section so well that none of those dancing ever broke stride and then,"Knoxville Girl" kept the party going with its twangy southern style and well played crisp guitar leads and harmonies.
Sadly, all good things must come to an end and the band saved their best for last as they performed their signature work, "Green Grass and High Tides" and closed their portion of the show. All of the parts were there working perfectly in sync; the searing guitar licks, the guitar harmonies, the dynamics and vocal harmonies which make this epic the classic that it was and still is. They seemed to really let it all out on this masterpiece while keeping it fresh and exciting with some unexpected deviations but not far enough from the original where it detracted from the norm.
Kudos to these Outlaws of rock 'n' roll; even though there was no encore the set ended at 8:21 p.m. and was well worth the price of admission. Just as "Legacy Live" captures the band on record, their live show is one for the ages and a definite must see event.

That's it for this week! Please continue to support live and original music and until next week....ROCK ON!
