I know! I hate that he stole from a dead man! Zevon with his ties to at least three of the five FM'ers (He was the roomate of LB, I think) and was an amazing musician. The first time I heard that song, I was so mad. I love getting people on the Mic/John trivia.

Don't you think the fact that he's using the song is a sign of respect for the man's music? I'm not a fan of Kid Rock but sampling is quite a fashionable thing to do at the minute and it can be done with artistic integrity or it can be bland and boring and offer nothing new.

I hate that song too if you going to do a tribute to someone at least just cover the whole damn song instead of stealing them and the song (kid rocks)sucks too I am surprised the record label agreed to put that out on a cd.Warren Zevon is probably turning over in his grave for sure and pretty much most of Lynrd Skynrd are doing the same in there graves.
