Lynyrd Skynyrd Add More Dates to Farewell Tour
Lynyrd Skynyrd have extended their Last of the Street Survivors Farewell Tour to cover a good chunk of 2019, adding 21 more dates in the U.S.
The entire tour calendar, including Canada and Europe legs, is below. These additional shows are spread out between May and late September. Look for them in bold. Tickets for the new dates go on sale Feb. 8; more information is available at the band's website.
Gary Rossington has said that Lynyrd Skynyrd have plans to stay together even after they leave the road. "After a few years of doin’ [the farewell tour], we’re gonna do a new record," he said. "So, we won’t go away, but we won’t be touring every year like we do.”
Recently, Rossington, Johnny Van Zant and Rickey Medlocke appeared on the public television show Speakeasy, with Van Zant joking about the idea of whether or not this will be their last time out on the road.
“I was talking to the guys and they said, ‘You know the the best part of a farewell tour?’" he recalled. "I said, ‘No, what's that?’ They said, ‘The reunion tour!’
