December 17 (or 19?), 2012. I had this idea of hosting a concert at the House of Blues for Michael Berry Show listeners. One of the bands who played was The Captain Legendary Band. With a swamp rock sound, and a soulful southern vibe, lotsa folk told me they wanted to know more about em. I headed off to Jackson Hole to rest for 2 weeks. Tour manager Ron Eckerman (who since passed) pestered me to do a Skynyrd tribute on Jan 15th, Ronnie Van Zants birthday, as it would be just a few months past the 35th anniversary of the crash. The Captain Legendary Band studiously rehearsed the biggest Skynyrd hits for 3 weeks to learn enough to put on a show, & we brought in legendary guitarist Steve the Colonel Cropper to join them. It was a second show at HOB, and we packed it, again. The idea for the RCC was taking root. Well, weve grown to enjoy their music, and their personalities, over the last 2 years. Theyve played my house parties, and theyve traveled to other states with me to perform. Theyve developed quite a following among our listeners. They do great covers, and their own stuff, which is fantastic. Fresh off their European tour, Charlie, Matt, Aaron, & Jeff will be, as they say, rocking your face off tonight at the RCC. Its free and open to the public (very few shows in 2015 will be), so come enjoy. Ladies, youre safe to come alone or in groups. Fellas, this is a great date night. Veterans, come let us salute you. Heres a little The Captain Legendary Band to wet your whistle. https://youtube/watch?v=DuVmiWTLLCk
