“We had a blast doing Speakeasy,” shares Lynyrd Skynyrd guitarist and original member Gary Rossington. “We’ve been reminiscing a lot on our farewell tour this year and it was so cool to sit down with fans in such a small theater and share some of those memories with them. And Rob Tannenbaum did a great job with the interview; we could have talked all afternoon! Look forward to everyone seeing the episode.”

Last year, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2006 inductees kicked off their Last of the Street Survivors Farewell Tour marking a big moment for generations of fans. After a career spanning more than 40 years and including a catalog of more than 60 albums with more than 30 million units sold, the band is ready to rock one last time. The farewell tour is currently underway and includes original member Rossington joined by Van Zant, Medlocke, Mark “Sparky” Matejka, Michael Cartellone, Keith Christopher, Peter Keys, Dale Krantz Rossington, Carol Chase and special guest Jim Horn. This spring and summer the tour will take the band across the country and around the world with international stops in Canada, the UK and Europe.
