How did you spend your New Year's Eve? Well, if you are Country star Chris Stapleton and rockers Kings of Leon, you spent it in Nashville on Lower Broadway performing along with Kelsea Ballerini and Wild Club.

Lynyrd Skynyrd had established themselves as one of the most successful rock bands of the '70s by the time they released 'Street Survivors' in October 1977.

Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Street Survivors' was released on Oct. 17, 1977, only three days before their fatal plane crash.

Peter Frampton, Cheap Trick and Gregg Allman were just a few of the artists on hand for Lynyrd Skynyrd's all-star concert recording One More for the Fans.

For many years, any band from the south with long hair and screaming guitars fell into the genre of 'southern rock' and would have never thought of taking the stage in the hallowed halls of the Grand Ole Opry.

Lynyrd Skynyrd rose fromtheir shared tragedy, first with a key sibling and a guitarist with an historical connection – and then a group of very famous new friends.

The guitarist paid tribute to the late Bob Burns, with whom he founded Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Burns, who founded the band and drummed on their first two albums, was killed in a single-car crash.

Lynyrd Skynyrd lost yet another seminal member when longtime keyboard player Billy Powell passed away suddenly.

Three things in life are inevitable: death, taxes and somebody yelling 'Free Bird' at every concert.

Lynyrd Skynyrd's breakthrough second album, 'Second Helping,' was released on April 15, 1974.

Last summer, two of classic rock's mainstays, Bad Company and Lynryd Skynyrd, teamed up for one of the season's most successful tours. So it makes sense that the duo are back for another round of dates.
