It isn't Molly Hatchet without Danny Joe Brown...Just isn't.

Gator Country is my favorite Hatchet songs. It mentions a lot of the other southern groups of that time and has an awesome guitar solos

Yeah but the mention of the other bands wasn't in a good way. If you go up and find my post and go into the replies underneath it about the "grave robber story" you'll see what I mean. I believe the guys name was "CRINGY" check it out

I had a rock band in 1979, and "Boogie No More" was one of the songs we covered. The extended solos were fun for me to play! I tried to sing like Danny Joe Brown but I couldn't come close to his style. He left us way too soon.

Perhaps you mean "He left Molly Hatchet way too soon." And yes, he left the world too soon but the band almost disappeared after 1984.

Best Molly Hatchet song is … dreams I’ll never see!

Fall of the Peacemakers & Edge of Sundown are their songs, excellent songs. Bounty Hunter is pretty good too. Their song The Creeper is basically telling us the Creeper in Jeepers Creepers is going to enter the world stage in the near future. The Creeper looks like a Demonic Fallen Angel Reptilian with wings created in a government lab by cross hybridizing Humans with Giant Flying Fox Bats. They have used gene splicing technologies to create Monsters, Dinosaurs & Martians right here on earth. My guess is the first Beast they unleash will be supersized Great White Sharks they'll call Megalodons?

Saw M.H. live in Munich in December 23 with Parker Lee at lead vocals and loved it! 🤩 They paid tribute to D.J. Brown on stage, btw. 🤘

Saw The Danny Joe Brown band at the Fox in Atlanta. They opened for Blackfoot - the Marauder tour. Also saw Molly Hatchet several times with both Danny Joe and Jimmy. As I’ve said with other bands, as with Molly Hatchet, my favorite lineup was with Dave, Duane and Steve - the three guitar attack. In other words-I still love and listen to all of it, period. Great video- thank you!

Amazing things you are saying, Being from Fayetteville, North Carolina, amazingly enough. There used to be a bar there called the seller that Play that quite a bit and I remember all the equipment. All the older storage bins all had Lynyrd Skynyrd spray painted all over everything but they used to stay in a motel the Palomino Inn and I became real good friends with Danny Joe and he would call me a week before they were coming into town and he would ask me to get in touch with certain people and we'll leave that conversation there but he did love Jack Daniels and he did love to party but then I moved from North Carolina to Florida in 83 and my wife worked for Orlando Hospital and they brought Danny Joe Brown in and he was going through the DTs was trying to be seen by doctors and my wife is the one that took in his paperwork but Danny Jones wife started playing the do you have any idea who my husband is card well my wife didn't take a whole lot of crap from nobody and there was a bad car wreck that night also these people had to be seen right away long story short she had Danny Joe Brown's wife escorted out of the hospital

I'm one of those that believe the first two Molly Hatchet albums were the best and that the Danny Joe Brown Band was a pale imitation of the original.

I was ASKED to come meet the band in 1996 and was still cussed out by a whiskey guzzling Danny Joe Brown who later couldn`t remember a single lyric of his own songs. He just stood on stage and smiled and mumbled. The rest of the band was nice.

back in 1990 or 91 I was in a band that opened for Molly Hatchet. Danny was nice enough to take a photo with me. He also had a drink in each hand and one on stage! lol This was at soundcheck! well, needless to say Hatchet ended up not performing that night. Danny had to be rushed to the hospital due to a medical condition that caught up to him that night!. Not to talk bad about him, Danny was a hell of a singer! But, a cool story to tell seeing as I was 19 at the time and Hatchet being my first Major band that I was opening for!!......Almost

The whistle was producer Ronnie Van Zant.

Weird to think 1980 - Bon Scott, Danny Joe Brown, Ozzy not out on the road with their bands. Then Di'Anno from Maiden the next year. And all those bands - at least briefly - became bigger somehow.

The tour for that album was great. They were tight. Glad I saw them.

Boogie No More is their best song ever

Bounty Hunter…”Hell yea!”

I saw MH in the Late 70s and early 80s DJB MADE THE BAND SOUND GREAT !!!! RIP BOYS

.38 Special didn't do any southern rock in the 80's. They transformed into an arena rock sound

Molly Hatchet - I’ll be running!!

Bounty hunter is the backbone

Molly Hatchet was such a thing for me when they broke onto the scene. The Skynyrd tragedy and all just before. Danny's voice, 3 guitarist, great songs, great cover art. They def had it going on. After Flirtin' I happened to see the new album at the record store and couldn't buy it fast enough. Got it home and threw it on to a big huh? moment 😮 something was very wrong. I had no idea Danny left as I undecidedly listened to Beating The Odds. I didn't know what happened to Danny but I knew this was no longer the same and I wasn't alright with it. Danny Joe Brown was as unique and irreplaceable as Ronnie Van Zant and I wasn't okay with a replacement. That was the last of Molly Hatchet for me. The debut album and Flirtin' was the real Molly Hatchet. Today sadly a band carries on calling themselves Molly Hatchet which really really bothers me and seems so wrong. Danny Dave Duane Steve Banner and Bruce were Molly Hatchet RIP

@@Cagey-1 so your comment aroused my curiosity. Although I was only 16 in 1978 when it came out I did actually notice all mentioned lyrics in I believe it was Gator Country and wondered what was up way back when? I guess my "picked up the flag" analogy was a bad choice. I kinda meant after loosing Skynyrd they were stepping in to musically fill the void of loosing that band. I liked the music and was a young guitar player starting out and dug learning their music I wasn't to aware of the politics or deeper message behind any of it and didn't give it to much thought at the time but your comment got the old guy me curious as to what exactly you may be talking about because you mentioned "the grave robber story" a couple times with no explanation as to what that means so please feel free to enlighten us if you would I can't be the only one in ignorance on the subject.

@@Cagey-1 I really had a feeling upon asking you that I probably wasn't going to like what I learned and I can honestly say "I was right" ! It really left a bad taste in my mouth where Molly is concerned. Hearing your story they were actually the kind of people I have no use for and can understand why things worked out the way they did. Although I understand their initial frustration, once they "got there" they should have let go of the animosity and a sense of respect decency and gratitude should have taken over and the fact that that wasn't the case and they continued to be POS people towards those who tried to help them is disturbing. Although like most truth it's unpleasant to know thanks for telling me. I'd rather know the truth it answered a lot of questions! Thanks for your time 👍☮️

Too many great ones. Whiskey Man, Cheatin Woman, Bounty Hunter, Long Time, Peacemakers, Beatin (on and on)...

Fall of the peacemakers.

thats the allman brothers dreams ill never see

This video told me about one thing that I hadn't heard before in that DJB was a very unstable person. I've never heard anyone say that. And WHERE is the REST of the video where you actually tell HUMANS something they couldn't figure out by themselves? Every guess I've ever made, every speculation was rehashed here by you. It's a real shame that DJB had such bad health problems. I am sure he was using steroids. He went from a big fat slob on the 1978 record to a ripped dude in 1983. He had lost about 40 lbs by 1979. How did he do that? Steroids were a big deal back around that time. And you say he had pancreatic problems. Diabetes, steroids, alcohol and cocaine and weed, don't do a pancreas any good at all. I've always said that Danny just didn't have the maturity and first he loved food, then it was drugs, and alcohol. He abused his body with the stuff he put into it. Me, I am just addicted to food, sweets, carbs. I was drinking a ton of vodka off and on for about 5 years. I decided that I had a big, big problem. I look back and realize I didn't really understand how dangerous alcohol really is. It's a carcinogen. It's poison. There's a reason alcohol gets us drunk. It is temporary poisoning, perhaps mild, by alcohol. Sometimes people drink so much that have to go to the hospital for alcohol poisoning. Or you can slowly poison yourself week by week. You can die from drinking too much. Or you can die from drinking habitually. RESPECT YOUR LIVER. And don't get tongue, mouth, throat or stomach cancer. Cancer is easy enough to get it without forcing it upon your body.

Boogie no more awesome tune

r sorry no Danny Joe Brown no Molly hatchet

This guy is a waste of time

this band didnt age well.

30 seconds of HORRIBLE music that sounds a bit like Van Halen's Jump. God, your INTRO is horrendous.

YOU ARE JUST WRONG ON EVERY LEVEL \

This Bobby Hatchet tribute band is horrible. Nothing about this band sounds like MOLLY HATCHET. There is NO MOLLY HATCHET , TODAY...Just some suck ass band with 1 guitarist and a keyboard player. Nothing against the new kid.He maybe a singer but he cannot sing Danny Joe's vocals. It's not good , at best. I'm born and raised and live in Jacksonville Florida. I know the story and here it is...Bobby Hatchet and his old buddy Henry Paul need to do one last tribute show together ...pack it up go home and Seriously work on your health so you be with your family. This is SAD and it's not MOLLY HATCHET !!!

Yeah we use to sing hey yup bop doodle bop😅
