My take on your choices OB, not dissing any of them really, all are good, but a few there are brilliant ;)

I don't mind things getting a little funky but I am a rocker at heart.

I rate Skynyrd as the best Southern rock band but I got into them and saw them at their peak; whereas I was a bit of a late comer to the Allmans. Not worth arguing over though: two wonderful bands at their best.

I’m not sure which of those two lists was the worst. Like a toss up between a dog turd sandwich and a cat turd sandwich! I own a grand total of 4 of them! Must have taken you as long to type as a Rush guitar solo ;-)

Hope you had a good day yesterday. I almost didn’t get in. Ticket came up as “blocked” and I had to go racing round Wembley looking for the ticket office, sweating buckets in a fucking great coat and cussing like a madman. Luckily they were pretty efficient and issued me a replacement on the spot and I made it in as they kicked off! You going on Thursday?
