Simple Man
I chose all the designs and pictures because the simple black and white with a little pop of color reminded me of the bands famous song Simple Man. The simple design and layout gives it a laid back feeling and from everything I have read about Ronnie that's just what he was.
I added in only a little of his information because Ronnie was a man who did not like to focus on himself. He would rather people focus on the band and do some research and know about them as a whole. It was a team effort into making sure this band became a legend and that's what I feel like he would want people to know about. By adding in the random facts and pictures you could see a little more into his life and who he really was. Ronnie was very into the band and wanted Lynyrd Skynyrd to prosper and thrive. So by providing this information and things such as songs and pictures we as fans and curious people can make sure they stay alive.

I just can't believe it. Seems like yesterday the original five were on tour together doing what we do best. I just can't believe another brother is gone too soon. I have prayed since his car crash for him and his family, but don't worry he is up here jamming out with the rest of the band. I wish I could say more but I'm at a lose of words to say about this tragic event.
Looking down over our country as we were under attack I couldn't help but think to myself where I would have been when this tragedy was occurring. Would I have acted like many of my brothers and sisters and let out tears of sadness, would I have called all my family and friends and made sure they were okay? Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months, and months turned into long and hard years that our country tried to rebuild are defense and our sacred homeland. I prayed long and hard for every single victim and their family along with the brave men and women who tried to rescue every person they could. I wish I could have supported our troops fighting for our freedom and to get justice for our country. Man I just wish I could have been there to help out in any way possible.
Today's southern rock bands are continuing what the band and I once started long ago. Artists like Brantley Gilbert, The Cadillac Three, Royal Southern Brotherhood, and many more have continued the genre most of us have come to love. I'm not going to be one to hate on the music because I can't continue the dream I once had and the life I wanted to live. Our music was about the life down in the south and how we grew up. It wasn't just to make money it was a lifestyle for us. So I'm glad that many bands and performers are continuing on my legacy.
Looking down over my fellow band members getting back together and continuing the dream we all once had I smile. Some believe that it is a mockery but I am pleased to see they are still kicking a** and showing the world just what southern rock is about. As for my brother, I'm proud of everything you have accomplished and I'm glad you took my role, but don't think you do it better than me. Thank you guys so much for keeping this going and always keeping me close in your hearts.
