Welcome to Gaia! ::

This band is one of the bands I grew up on and still enjoy listening too. They are also one of the most legendary bands in music history. Why are they so legendary? Well for starters, the band has been around since 1969 and STILL have all three original members! I mean how much more legendary can you get? Not to mention, one of their albums has gone Diamond (That really says a lot). Anyway, if anyone here is a fan of Southern Rock, Hard Rock or Blues Rock, you should definitely check them out, if you haven't already.

It's really impressive when a band has been around for as long as they have, still has all the original members and is still making albums. Of course, when the next album is due out is unknown.

Yeah another fan.

Good.
