Yes Charlie is pure class and I’m glad he was chosen and his band for the return of this guitar to be heard live. I wonder if we will ever get to hear “Bernice”, his 59 LP… again. It has been in the Hall Of Fame for a good while.
I may be one of the few who understand that feeling.. I played Freebird on Allen's double cut LP from ACB days not to long ago on stage at the Blue Crab Festival in Palatka , Fl
First seen these Guys open for Zac Brown years ago And now fallow them They have come a long way have seen them several times and glad to see them doing covers like this. They made it
@@darrenschmidt3479 I hear ya, but I don't think that's the case here. The 'sacred' part as far is this guitar is concerned is the intro. That was Gary's main part. Allen was the main guy in the solo. It was probably too much for a one time thing.
We've all heard this song a million times. It's played out. We're bored of it. We don't want to hear it again. But yet...if you just stop and listen to it like you've never heard it before, you'll realize that, like always, it's a really great song and worthy of its anthem status. Having heard it too much doesn't make it worse!
@@wolfdog3158 no just three videos. I didn’t have a great view of the stage. I was 12 rows back shooting between the people in front of me. I don’t want to be the guy with my phone up in the air
I ❤ BBS, but Charlie isn't playing the some of the slide/Gary's parts on Freebies. WTH???? And Gary only use that Les Paul/SG for Freebird. Oh well it's still cool that Charlie Starr is playing one of Gary's guitars. And WHERE IS BERNICE?????
Serious class act! What a tribute to the GOAT Lynyrd Skynrd
The only man worthy to play these songs on Gary’s guitar on stage.
Gary's wife and Johnny Van Zandt gave Jelly Roll one of Mr. Rossington's guitars on stage one night because Gary appreciated him and his talent.
Facts
Dont know about that.
The Smoke is carrying the torch forward without a doubt … Great Tribute
Such a beautiful tribute!! Much Love!!!
Way to go Charlie, awesome tribute , you made the Angels smile Gary is looking down with a smile !
What a humbled unassuming tribute to Rossington and all original members....no one left...put a chill up my spine n tear in my eye. RIP ❤
Charlie is s class act! Being the first to play Gary's guitar, FREEBIRD, and live in front of Dale! RIp Gary🙏
Amen!!! The best!

Goodness gracious they nailed them!! Outstanding performance
My Love for this Band is so satisfying and comfortable. My heart feels so HAPPY when I hear the Smoke!!!!!
This is the perfect tribute to Gary…he is smiling down on these guys
I may be one of the few who understand that feeling.. I played Freebird on Allen's double cut LP from ACB days not to long ago on stage at the Blue Crab Festival in Palatka , Fl
Is there video of that performance? Would love to see it!
Awesome, I bet you played well, and the feeling will never go away. I mean, the inspiration of the moment.

Outstanding
Our Starr
Helluva show last night 🤟🏻
That was awesome. Not gonna lie, at 12 minutes long, I was really hoping they played all of Free Bird.
@@Andy22882 me too
Yea, I needed the guitar solo.
A lot of artists don’t cover solos, because of how sacred they are. Just like how zakk wylde won’t play a lot of dimebags solos

God bless black berry smoke.
Incredible
Just perfect ❤
Lyric delivery ❤❤❤
That is amazing!!
OK, who shed a tear😢

Who cares that's GARY ROSSINGTON'S guitar , I think Charlie Starr feels very honored to play it , and it's done out of RESPECT!
Bravo!!!!!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🎶🎶🎶🎶🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
How about something for Allen Collins?
You could say that about every original Skynyrd member. Saluting Gary as he passed sighing the year and his wife was at the show
I think there were 2 people playing that guitar ❤️
" Its just a silly little love song " RVZ ✌️
100 percent jaybird
have the entire show to share ?
@@wolfdog3158 no just three videos. I didn’t have a great view of the stage. I was 12 rows back shooting between the people in front of me. I don’t want to be the guy with my phone up in the air
They better play this in fort laudy tonight
Good luck. They didn’t play it last night in Clearwater. Enjoy the show!

I ❤ BBS, but Charlie isn't playing the some of the slide/Gary's parts on Freebies. WTH???? And Gary only use that Les Paul/SG for Freebird. Oh well it's still cool that Charlie Starr is playing one of Gary's guitars.
And WHERE IS BERNICE?????
Gary didnt have to play it and sing it
Who’s the new drummer? I’ve never been able to find out
Kent Aberle. He’s a baaaad dude.
Right, one of the only drummers I’ve ever seen cover this song perfectly and sounds spot on like artimus
So who is actually playing the slide? Cause the singer isn’t playing it during the freebird verse
@@Wheat711 Benji Shanks. Sorry I couldn’t video him because I was filming in between a couple people.
