So, with all the bad news out there — high diesel prices, a slumping economy, war, famine, the never-ending Democratic primary slugfest, you get the idea — I figured that for today I’d just share another music video clip … just something to keep our heads up under the barrage of negative news everywhere.

Yes, I know it’s ironic to use Blackfoot’s classic southern anthem “Train, train” for a trucking video … but, hey, that song rocks! The band — a contemporary of Lynyrd Skynyrd — has reunited and is touring again, so check them out if you’re a fan of this style of music.

You’ll also catch a glimpse of the one and only David Kolman, a longtime trucking industry veteran and editor of our sister publication Refrigerated Transporter — definitely one the funniest editors you’ll ever meet on the trucking beat.
