@notme20640 Lynyrd Skynyrd was never about the money. They are still doing it for the love of the music and respect for the guys that have passed on and cannot be here to play anymore so they are doing it for them and the fans.

God Bless you Lynyrd Skynyrd. The saddest days of my were between the day of the wreck & the first time I heard "Smoke Stack Lightning". Since then every album has been better than the one before it, every show has been the absolute trill of my life. Special thanks to the band & all the good folks that made it possible! And Lord please take me & mine when this is gone.

how could dislike this band they scream American, freedom, and NRA. this is America's band.

R.I.P Billy Powell, Allen Collins, Leon Wilkins, Ronnie Van Zant, Ian Evans, Hughie Thommason, Steve Gaines, Cassy Gaines, and all the others who have are no longer alive that were with the band.

for the folks who realy do not know the fact.

2 of the original members wives collect 30% of all revenue without doing anything.

So I would say the members of the band do it for a lot more than money.

It is true that they give the fans what the fans really want and that is the old standards but there are some really good post RVZ music if folks would just give it a fair chance. Skynyrd is just the best group of all time past, present and future.

@robinhoodtn1 your correct it's your opinion, and your entitled to it. my response was my opinion and i'm entitled to it.

[bisp25]

@robinhoodtn1 the bottom line is the band is still now today playing to packed houses night in and night out. if the fans didn't want to see them they wouldn't go. also i find it funny the comments you make if ronnie was alive today he would do this or that. how do you know, what he would do or say. johnny has carried on with class and diginty. plus it has given his daughter melody in which he loved even more then music, and his grandaughter a great life by getting a % of the gate. he be proud.

@notme20640 Only one ORIGINAL SKYNYRD!!!

That band's career sadly ended 10-20-77.

[notme20640]

Not Skynyd, just riding the name out. What a shame. All about the money

[BoromirGurl26]

They are the greatest band in the world and I'm sure Ronnie would approve of what Johnny has done with the band
