HI
I was listening to a local rock radio station this morning and one of the questions asked was how many redneck rockers can you name. Thus my obvious question is: How many redneck rockers can you name,here are a few to get things rolling:

Lynard Skynard,
Ted nugent,
Humble pie.
any more guys!
macabre
GEEZ! I NEVER REALISED A BRAIN WEIGHED SO MUCH.
WHY HAVE YOU GOT A KNIFE IN YOUR HAND? I HAVEN'T IT'S IN YOUR CHEST.
A MARATHON! MY WIFE COULDN'T RUN A BATH WITHOUT FEELING TIRED.

Humble Pie is British.
I can think of some:

Marshall Tucker Band
Ozark Mountain Daredevils
Molly Hatchett

I was going to say Molly Hatchett

38 Special is another one.
I don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org

ZZ Top
Georgia Satellites
Kid Rock

Many classify Tom Petty as a Southern rocker, but I'm not sure about "redneck."

Looks like just about everybody I can name of the top of my head has been named. Even the Georgia Satellites.

Would Credence fit here?

Creedence I'm not sure would fit; they're from California.  They just TRY to sound like they're redneckish, singing about bayous and cottonfields and such.  Kind of like Bon Jovi singing about being a cowboy, when he's from New Jersey.  Not buying it!  :bouncegiggle:

I didn't know that. Just assumed they had to be singing about what they knew.

See I'm with you there on Creedence although I see RR's point.  When I was DJ on a classic rock station they'd always be lumped into our "redneck weekends".

CCR definitely belong on any "redneck Rockers" list... it's not just about where a band is from, it's also what they sound like, or even, where they sound like...  :teddyr:
