    What's Your Favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd Song?

    God I saw Weedeater do it on the tour right after God Luck, Good Speed came out. Sooo heavy. When they played Southern Cross I about had an out of body experience. I’ll post that when someone starts a “Favorite CSN (&Y) Songs” thread.

    How To Tell If A Pipe is Clay Or Meer

    I’d say Peterson wouldn’t/hasn’t made a clay pipe with a metal band and vulcanite stem. It’s VERY rare to see a clay pipe dressed up like that, in that shape. Maybe there’s an example or two out there, but in general, the vast majority of clay pipes are straight and in the Belge/Cutty shape...

    Any Love For The Boer Shape? Show Them Here!

    Any more, some of the Italian companies seem to make this shape more than anyone else. Ser Jacopo does an offshoot.. Jacono, though, seems to make them with the most frequency. I believe they call it a “flamingo”.
