This is a sad day. More than just Freebird, many Skynyrd songs have signature piano licks.....all Billy. No body can fill his shoes. I personally think the band should retire now. Rossington is the only original left in the current band. Ed King and Artimus Pyle are still living, but are not part of the current band.
Plus, the current band has a contract with the late Ronnie VanZant's wife that states they can only use the name Lynyrd Skynyrd if three original band members are actively in the the group. They have been getting buy with just two the last few years. I bet they will have a legal battle now.
Is that more than you really wanted to know?
I will be playing Freebird sometime today.

No, Really glad to get the info. I agree it's probably time. I just hope he made peace with God and really is a free bird now. He was spared in the plane crash and got 30+ years more time. 56 is young especially since I'll be 55 this year.
