Who is the gay guitar picker in dinosaur

"You're singin' a song about makin' love to your drummer/Well gay guitar-pickers don't turn me on," he sang at one point, that many people in the audience knew word for word.

In the forthcoming lines, it is clear he’s not into the gays: “You’re singin’ a song about makin’ love to your drummer / Well, gay guitar pickers don’t turn me on.” Yikes! That is the most glaring example of homophobia, and the narrow-minded view some country musicians had and still currently have.

Hank Williams Jr. makes that crystal clear in his classic hit "Dinosaur": He takes aim at the performers, singing, "Gay guitar-pickers don't turn me on" and questioning whether they know any old Hank Williams songs. He even disses disco, saying "these flashing lights sure make me dizzy" and describing a bar that's turned into a spaceship.

The song isn't meant as a call out song, but rather that Hank's favorite honkeytonk joint got turned into a disco hall, something very popular around the time the song was released. Hank realizes this, that he prefers the old stuff, hence calling himself a dinosaur alluding to how he enjoys the old music and old ways and doesn't fit in with the new disco scene. Dinosaur is easily one of my.
