Shop the best of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s discography on vinyl and more.
The artist pre-sale begins on Tuesday, October 31 at 10 AM local time, and will be available until 10 PM local time on Thursday, November 2. The public on-sale begins at 10 AM local time on Friday, November 3. Visit Lynyrd Skynyrd’s official website for more information.
The new run begins on Friday, March 8 at Enmarket Arena in Savannah, Georgia, with stops across the Southeast, Midwest and South before wrapping up in Corpus Christi, Texas at the American Bank Center. A new leg of dates will begin on August 15 in Syracuse, New York and continue through September 22 in Ridgefield, Washington.
Black Stone Cherry will open all appearances from March 8 Through April 20. The Outlaws will serve as the support act from August 15 through September 22.
The tour will support the band’s new release, a 50th anniversary boxed set edition of Fyfty, out now via Geffen/UMe. The 50 tracks on the set celebrate the entire career of the American originals, back to their early Muscle Shoals recordings via definitive 1970s landmarks to the previously unreleased live performance of “Gimme Three Steps,” from the band’s last show with co-founder Gary Rossington last November.
The 12-inch vinyl-size Fyfty package has a gatefold jacket containing a detailed 40-page booklet, for which the introduction is written by Skynyrd’s longtime friend Cameron Crowe, who reflects: “Through it all, doggedly making one authentically great record after another, Lynyrd Skynyrd had risen through the ranks to become one of America’s greatest bands.”
Liner notes and information on each track is by Detroit rock journalist Gary Graff. A limited edition version of the set, featuring a signed litho print, will be available exclusively via uDiscover and as part of the band’s touring packages.
