Also don't forget Tom Petty! Many people think Tom Petty is from California, but he was born and raised in Gainsville. Tom learned guitar from fellow Gainsville native Don Felder, who later went on to The Eagles.

1stgenbrawler had Tom Petty covered in his post.
Leaving Skynyrd out was inexcusable !
Has me wondering if the boy was really raised right or not. (j / k - lol)


But how can anyone be a native of Gainesville and not know about Lynyrd Skynyrd
