Tribute of the band including video of area near crash site. I was lucky enough to see them twice in concert. The first time being at the Knebworth Arts Festival in England where most of Freebird the movie was filmed. My wife is from a small town in Mississippi, about 30 miles from the crash site. So one sunny day I asked her to go with me to find it and surprise , we did. I plan to go back someday in the winter months and see it again. Maybe do another video. Hope you like this one, it was one of my first.

Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines, Cassie Gaines, assistant road manager Dean Kilpatrick, pilot Walter McCreary and co-pilot William Gray

With absolutely no pun at all intended to Don McClean's song, or with no disrespect at all intended to Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, or the Big Bopper. But for me, October 20, 1977 was really "THE DAY THE MUSIC DIED"!! Fly on Freebirds!!

Wow~ What a wonderful and very emotional tribute to say the least. FyingFinn77 what an excellent job. Been a huge Skynyrd fan since I was a lil' girl. Great storytellers and awesome music. It just doesn't get any better. Every member of Skynyrd has/had their own unique and creative way about them.
