more like Free. Later,
Ronnie met Bob Burns and Gary Rossington when he hit Bob in the head with
a baseball. They decided to start a band with Bob on drums, Gary on
guitar, Ronnie singing, and Gary's friend Larry Junstrom on Bass.
They later decided to add a second guitar player. They heard from
other people that Allen Collins was very good at the guitar. They
found Allen riding his bike and they called his name and he started
running thinking they wanted to beat him up. They chased after him
and caught him. When Allen heard what they really wanted he was
surprised and excited and decided to join the band. They changed the
name to The One Percents. Ronnie thought of the name because only
one percent of musicians make it big and he was going to be in that one
percent. |
