Once again Lynyrd Skynyrd Fans will gather together to pay tribute to Jacksonville's own Lynyrd Skynyrd Band in their hometown, Jacksonville, FL. We're excited to announce that our Host Hotel & Lounge will be the Quality Inn Conference Center & Mi Casa Lounge in Orange Park, FL, for the 3rd year in a row!
HISTORY OF THE SKYNYRD TRIBUTE
Every year since 1997, a weekend in October has been set aside as a Skynyrd Fan Fest to honor and celebrate the Lynyrd Skynyrd Band and their music. This was originally created by Judy & Melody Van Zant of the The Freebird Foundation and went on from October 1997 until October 2000. Artimus Pyle organized The Celebration Of Life Tribute in October 2001.
The Skynyrd Chat group has been involved with the annual tributes since 1997. Beginning October 2002, the Skynyrd Chat Frynds internet group at www.frynds.com has independently organized and sponsored the annual "free" fan based Skynyrd Tribute Weekend in conjunction with Jacksonville rock band KYMYSTRY hosting the entertainment. Other "Skynyrd Fan" bands and musicians donate their time and talents to round out a full weekend of live music. In addition, there is a "Skynyrd Sytes Tour" (by caravan) scheduled on Saturday afternoon with a lyst and directions to other Skynyrd related sytes of interest, provided for your convenience to visit at your leisure.
The Lynyrd Skynyrd Band has touched the hearts and souls of so many through the music they created and their performances over the past 30+ years. The Skynyrd Tribute is our (the fans) way of honoring them and it's also a time for special remembrance of the "original band members" Ronnie Van Zant, Allen Collins, Leon Wilkeson, Steve Gaines and Honkette - Cassie Gaines, who gave their extraordinary talents and creativity which is responsible for the unique Lynyrd Skynyrd sound. The Lynyrd Skynyrd Band is the world famous "Greatest Southern Rock Band" of all tyme! This year is extra special because Lynyrd Skynyrd was finally inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 13th 2006! ~ Join Us This Year In Celebration ~
