you're not a musician from the south, are you?
Freebird is a great song, just played to death down south. Its a HIGHLY requested tune and cover bands HATE playing it. However the response that McMurdo is looking for is this. When ever someone asks for freebird, shoot them a bird and say "no charge".

California born and raised, and been out of the business for years.

The Freebird thing is kind of an inside joke with Barclay and the band, when we saw them at Loch Norman, great show by the way, Barclay was shouting out Freebird much to the dismay of the band. I thought he may do the same here and when he did not I just thought I'd do it to see what reaction I got.

[Iolaus]

Yeah, I figured. Forget I said anything.

Partly, I was just getting cute, showing that I had listened to the web-track all the way through. It didn't work out.

Sorry guys! The Freebird thing actually goes back a couple of years - I was sitting with Shawn's wife Deb, she dared me...not being one to pass up a (reasonable) dare, I did...things got ugly and a tradition was born. Now whenever I'm with the lads, I pick the most inappropriate time and start yelling for Freebird. Tartan Hiker knows the drill, hence his comment that it was time to log off immediately following Glen's request for said Skynard anthem. LOL



Glen - I'm glad you did ask for it...it hadn't even occurred to me to do it in print!

Now I'll have to start yelling for something else. Shawn, do you guys know "Muskrat Love"? LOL

I've waited for Years for someone to finally request that! Muskrat susie, Muskrat Sam, do the jitterbug down in Muskrat land...

[McMurdo]

I don't want to kill the tradition, just add to it. Perhaps the next time we're down we can do it en mass, or as you say perhaps I could pick another song something more Canadian like Snowbird


or The Wreck of the Edmund Fitsgerald
