  • Goin to see these boys live tonight!!!!

  • this song is so fucking bad ass! Can never get enough of it..

  • the new lynyrd skynyrd \m/ I like blackberry smoke

  • I can't wait to see these guys again next month!!!

  • fu%king kick assband right here!!!!!!!!

  • Hmm,This band might do something,O K I admit,They F@#kin Rock!!!

  • Awesome Freakin band

  • I love this band.

  • kick anus riff

    LONG LIVE ROCK 'N' ROLL

  • Ay, these guys are GREAT! Why haven't we heard much from them?

  • The best of the best. This band ROCKS!!!!

  • Love the video! And love BBS!!!

  • reminds me of Jackel...

  • @stonesrule1000 If you can't tell the difference in this band and Jackyl give it up.Yes they both ROCK,but One is Southern Rock the other is just plain in your face.Now ,back up and start over...

  • @0069muffinma your option..they sound close to me ..Dixieland comes to mind

    Jackyl

  • @stonesrule1000 what? they sound nothing like Jackel

  • Great Jam!

    

  • Honky Tonk History by Travis Tritt sounds similar.

  • sweet

  • Can these guys really walk down the street with a straight face looking like that in 2011? The skull-tophat-ace mascot is tediously representative of their abysmal style, hammering it in that YES, they're an homage to G&R, Skynyrd, Motorhead. It's not a bad riff & I might be able to forgive the utter lack of originality if they had an oz of musical subtlety or lyrical wit. Beautiful guitar work & melodies, a la the Allmans? Hardly. Clever, personal, Van Zant-esque verbal musings? Not a chance.

  • @TKsFC hey, shit head. I'm 23 and happen to think these are some of the hottest guys around. Why does anyone have to fit a specific "mold". I'm sorry...should they look like Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw and every other generic, cowboy hat wearing, "hollywood" type? The BBS boys are the whole package. Attractive, Down-to-Earth...some of the NICEST human beings you could ever hope to meet, and they OOZE talent and originality. So if you don't like them...then don't watch the f***ing video.

  • @CareBear4044 I'm entitled to my opinion without being insulted by you, but whatever. Did I say that the only alternative to heinous facial hair and two-foot, middle parted manes is to dress like a Young Country tool? And I'm sure that these guys are SUPER "nice" and "down-to-earth". Too bad their lyrics are totally misogynistic and they have not a sliver of an actual soul among them. Oh, and thanks for saying they "ooze originality" - I really needed a good belly laugh!

  • Were I a paleontologist o' rock & roll, I might be more fascinated by Blackberry Smoke, but though I'm a fan of The Drive-By Truckers, BS (how perfect!) lacks every smidgeon of verbal or musical inspiration that distinguishes The Truckers from the 10K Skynyrd Wannabes who've lumbered across the stage since Ronnie Van Zant's plane went down 34 yrs ago. Center-parted 2ft hair & jaded boogie-riffed trifles about sneakin' in quickies while yer boyfriend ain't lookin' just don't git me goin' no mo'!

  • @TKsFC Is that you Simon Cowell? You've left American Idol for YouTube? If you think for one second your pseudo critic, Ala Rolling Stone style hit piece is persuading anyone who's a fan, you've failed. Being a phony intellectual, elitist "critic" who has nothing to do but knock a band isn't talent or "clever". They are INFLUENCED by their predecessors, but who isn't? Without Clapton, no Van Halen, Without, Black Sabbath, no Motorhead, As you said,"clever, personal...musings"..Not a chance.

  • @datsellur I'm just stating my take on this video like everyone else. Sorry you don't like my opinion, but do u have to insult me personally? There's a difference between having influences & being a carbon copy. Hell, I don't even mind a carbon copy if they're a GOOD one & can come up with decent original songs. I love Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings. Revivalism does have its place. But why would u wanna listen to these guys when Skynard already did it WAY better? Even BS would have to admit that.

  • @TKsFC I saw Skynyrd at their last show and I've seen these guys live and BBS is every bit as original and sound fantastic in person. They are indeed the real deal....don't hold it against BBS cause Skynyrd was there first. These guys are an amazing live band. I was dragged to their concert not knowing who they were and about half way thru the first song I said to myself...who the fuck are these guys? Totally kick ass band...and I've seen em all.

  • Now that's ass rippin...all day !!!!!!!!

  • These are some of the nicest, most genuine human beings you could ever hope to meet...and they will ROCK your faces off! They will be huge some day...they deserve that more than anyone.

  • Charlie come to MInnesota Jill, John, Louise and Doug from the Skynyrd Cruise want to see you and Christine!

  • Nice tone, have not heard a good southern progression like this in 30 years...

  • The south is rising again!!!!!!!!!!! That's southern swaggar!!!!It took me until this year to discover this truely gifted band!!!!!!!! I'm gonna tell everyone!

  • lookslike men on drugs

  • @mildredk1 and your point is?

  • @mildredk1 Well, they ARE a band!?! What's your point?

  • @mildredk1 and you're still livin' in '68. Move on.

  • They opened for Lynyrd Skynyrd in St Louis.  Blackberry Smoke was awesome!

  • @jonnewellphd You were there too? Cool. That's how I found out about these guys.

  • Comment removed

  • saw them in concert. awesome! they are bringing southern rock back

  • I thought this video was from 1977 for first few seconds. Bad ass band

  • The most chill drummer ever! He's barely moving.

  • No Prizes for knowing were these boys hail from or who there Influences are.

    Cool Band, cool Sidies and that beard.................

    Only became aware of them through Classic Rock Magazine.

    Rock n Roll

  • waiting years to have NEW southern rock back. Nothing against the old stuff but grew up with it. KICK ASS

  • Awesome musicians, really nice guys and let's admit it.........some of the best facial hair in the biz to date.........:)

    Love you guys!

  • I saw them in Round Rock too, at the Dell Diamond

    It was an amazing Concert

  • Saw them with Zach Brown Band in Round Rock. They put on a good show and their music is awesome! They can jam that's for sure!

    

  • i dig it.

    

  • Brilliant! They remind me of Backfoot.

  • You guys are absolutely amazing...I feel like I've been deprived since I only heard you for the first time about a week or 2 ago. But I'm 100% hooked, and I'm planning on driving up to Wisconsin to see you at Summerfest this year <3

  • It's great to hear real southern rock again. Good old lon haired southern boys! I hope they get around Baltimore again soon. My friend turnened me on to them and they are a must see.

  • Heard them two Years ago when they came to Sioux Falls in 2008. Love this song and even better have the album signed.

  • This is my new favorite band. I saw them in Biloxi recently but the bass player was sick and they had to do an acoustic show. I really want to see them electric, but they are the opening act for a band I care nothing about at most of the shows close to me. You guys are too good to be an opening act.

  • BUUUUUFFFFFFF UP in SMOKE Down in FLAMESSSSS

    really great music!!!!!

  • WOW, WHERE HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN??????? LOVE IT, LOVE IT

  • If it isn't Taylor Twit our stations in the Pacific N.W. won't play it. That's why we come on youtube and search for better music than what is spoon fed to the unwitting masses.

  • @tgoltiani If I were still in the radio biz, this would be gettin' heavy airplay!!!!!

  • @tgoltiani i live in nashville and the selection of spoon fed radio stations is4. my dog's SH*T smells better than that crap. atlanta has a radio station every 2 points on the dial. for being music city, the music selection sucks !! i, too, am on Youtube listening constantly to what i want to listen to !! so it not just the Pacific NW. i've heard that before with several friends up your way !!

  • such a fuckin underrated band.

    this is pure rock n roll

  • @Omdullla

    agreed, indefinitely.

  • some of you are going to be mad at my post below but here is the thing,,i have friends that have played with all the big southern bands like ,skynyrd,outlaws,hachet and the CDB band they opened for them or jammed around jacksonville fl in clubs with them !!

  • damn good song but needs more kick ass drive from the bass and drummer,,,best song from this band the rest is just every day bar music,,sorry been around alot of bands,,and there are some kickass bands in jacksonville fl that still play alot of real southern rock hard driving music not this 123 cowboy count crap,,lets see i would put this band in the 1980s country change as hair bands and metal took over

  • Saw these guys open for ZZ Top a couple summers ago, They were freakin awesome!!!! Just as good as ZZ, and that's sayin somethin!!!!

  • How does a song this good not get airplay?

  • @tgoltiani 106.3 thunder country Atlantic City plays it alot

  • Such a great song! I ordered a t-shirt and cd a few years ago..

  • GO RICHARD!!!!!!!! FROM JAXSON

  • redneks for ever! love this band, next big things!

  • i loved seening them at the pig jig in VIENNA

  • Saw these guys in Lexington, Ky with a band called Fifth on the Floor. Both bands were incredible!

  • @P0000h I was there too !!!

  • @31rcr What an awesome show huh?!

  • @P0000h Fifth on the Floor is awesome. Thought I was the only person that had ever heard of them.

  • These guys put the hammer down every time they take the stage. I just saw them on the Lynyrd Skynyrd cruise from Tampa, FL.  Pure awesomeness.

  • started out kickin ass, then sounded like some Nashville neckties came in and did some kind of Little Rascal FRatts like chorus , it didnt match.

  • Comment removed

  • the one who disliked, kan dislike my grannys butt

  • I saw them in Chattanooga opening for Jamey Johnson. These guys are way too good to be an opening act. Love the whole Little Piece of Dixie cd

  • Wow, nice video editing of a studio track to live performance. Every time it's ready to slip out of sync we get a cut away, but it doesn't wreck the perfomance. Well done, makes we want to go catch these boys live.

  • These guys are awesome.Why haven"t hit it big yet??

  • Rock n Roll is resurrected...at last! Thanks, I'm young again. I'm getting the Vrod out and it's raining!

  • I'm a 72 year old rock fan of sorts. My son had a band 30 years ago and now they are having 30 year reunions, and someone posted this link on FaceBook.

These guys are the real deal folks. Great band, killer songs, and every one of them are as laid back and down to earth as it gets. One of the best bands I have ever gigged beside!  Check em out now!

  • @macattack619 And what an awsome gig it was!

  • @Gunxtha Awesome even... :P

  • To Blackberry Smoke: This song is a pure hit. It belongs in the top 20 songs of the year (If not higher). I have played guitar in local cover bands in the Eastern N.C. area for the last 30 years. They say I'm pretty good. I play the style of music you play, extremely well! I'd be a great pick if you needed a replacement player. I hope that never happens. You guys f*#king rock! I'll be looking for your next tour date near me.

  • Frank Beard doesn't look well.
