US southern rock band LYNYRD SKYNYRD have postponed this Saturday's (February 23rd) show at Coushatta Casino Resort in Kinder, LA. Guitarist Gary Rossington was hospitalized earlier this month in Wyoming with an abdominal infection.

A message from the band states: "Gary is doing well, but will be unable to perform this weekend while he recovers from his illness. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused the fans and promoters. Lynyrd Skynyrd looks forward to touring and performing in the near future."
