This reminds me of the fascination of songwriters with Lost Cause bullshit. The Band and The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down is a prominent example. For fuck’s sale, Robbie Robertson, you’re Canadian!
I went to see a really good band tonight. Great musicians.

Right up until they played Dixie for their closing number.

"This one's for two of my great-great grandfathers."

I walked out.
