Shredworthy solos

Patrick:
E. Spaceman, heh, isn't that a Jimmy Page solo from his pre-Yardbirds session work days?

Narr:

Freebird- Lynard Skynard.

Agreed.  It's a good song, although it seems to be the butt-end of a lot of jokes that seem to go over my head.

Bastardous Bassist:
Just so long as people stop requesting it at shows, especially when it's a jazz group!  Every time someone does that, a little part of me dies inside.  It's not funny any more!  It really isn't!  If you go to a show and yell out "Freebird," don't tell me.  I'd track you down and hurt you.

Oh, now I get the comment in Guitar Hero while it's loading a song and says "They don't really want you to play Freebird.  They're just hassling you."

Gives me the idea that if I was ever in a band, we'd learn to play the song just so that if people were going to yell it out, we'd play it so they'd stfu.

Kirbo:
Freebird was, for around....6 years, my favorite song (yes, I'm one of those people who has favorites), it was very recently surpassed*, but I still love the song. I don't get the joke, or the calling it out at concerts.

If I had a band, we'd learn the song to rock the fuck out, no need for people to stfu.
