Lynyrd Skynyrd From Scotland to Illinois

Lynyrd Skynyrd has added a handful of stops to its 2015 Europe trek. Plus, the Illinois edition of Country Life Music Festival just named the act as its Friday headliner.

Before we bid farewell to 2014, the Southern rock band has a run of U.S. dates to take care of, as well as two nights in Moncton, New Brunswick, Nov. 7-8.

The group will be the guest of honor in Atlanta Nov. 12 at an event dubbed “One More For The Fans! – Celebrating The Songs & Music Of Lynyrd Skynyrd.” The lineup features Trace Adkins, Alabama, Gregg Allman, Charlie Daniels, Peter Frampton, Warren Haynes, John Hiatt, Jason Isbell and more.

And don’t forget about Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Simple Man Cruise, which sails outs of Miami on the Norwegian Pearl Nov. 16.
