Lynyrd Skynyrd Made A Stop In Toronto With Their Last of the Street Survivors Farewell Tour Presented by SiriusXm
Lynyrd Skynyrd brought their show to Toronto’s Budweiser Stage Saturday night and it was a huge hit! They have been on the road in one form or another for over five decades, playing under various names and settling on Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1969. At the height of their career, in 1977 there was a tragic plane crash and the band was instantly over when Ronnie Van Zant, Cassie Gaines and Steve Gaines perished. The remaining members reformed in 1987 with Johnny Van Zant, Ronnie’s younger brother singing lead and they have continued, since then, to tour and record. 2018 will mark the end of their long and storied career with this Last of the Street Survivors Farewell Tour, presented by SiriusXM.

Skynyrd, Dear Rouge and more Ottawa Bluesfest Week 2
After an incredible start to this year’s Ottawa Bluesfest the second week was the week that had more of the music I was interested loaded so it was no doubt one I would be looking forward to covering. Initial plans were that I would be finished my shifts with the Green Team by this point as well but health issues in the first week forced me to pick up some shifts in the second week.
Ottawa Bluesfest – Week in Review
It’s hard to believe that the event that I’ve been anticipating all year is already halfway through. It feels like just yesterday that the Full Flex Express rolled into town kicking off what would be an incredible 11 days of live entertainment along the Ottawa River. New to our coverage this year is the addition of Sean Sisk, our new resident event photographer extraordinaire in the Ottawa region. Sean’s incredible pictures will appear throughout my reviews and allow me to focus on the music and our social media coverage instead of trying to get the perfect shot.
