When Lynyrd Skynyrd opened for the Rolling Stones in front of 200,000 people at Knebworth Festival in August, 1976, Mick Jagger had one hard and fast rule: “don't go out on the tongue”. The tongue was a long extension to the stage that was meant to be reserved for Mick and the boys to cavort on, but Ronnie Van Zant wasn't going to let anyone — even Mick Jagger, one of his idols and biggest influences — tell him where he and his boys could go. So during the band's epic performance of “Free Bird”, Ronnie put one arm each around Allen Collins and Gary Rossington, and ushered them onto the forbidden tongue anyway, and that's where Allen (in red below) played his legendary guitar solo.
Take that, Mick.
