Johnny Van Zant and Rickey Medlocke are keeping the music of their band Lynyrd Skynyrd alive.
The rock band is releasing an upcoming film, “The 50th Anniversary of Lynyrd Skynyrd,” which centers on their last concert with founding member Gary Rossington, taped last year. Rossington died of cancer in March. “Gary had been very sick And we were going, ‘Ok, well, we want you to come to this show cause we’re taping it,’ of course and you know, God works in mysterious ways, and he gave Gary enough energy to come out there and play with us,” Van Zant told CNN in an interview this week.
’ So, it was just very dramatic.” Van Zant, who was 17 at the time, said he answered the phone at his family’s home and was the first to learn of the crash from the band’s former manager. “I looked up at the TV and it was on and I hollered for my dad. And after that you kind of go blank, you know, when bad things happen. I think your mind has a way of just kind of making it fuzzy. It was a very long, very sad night, and the days after were very sad … you just don’t think of something like that.
