Lynyrd Skynyrd has just tagged 13 new cities onto its “Big Wheels Keep On Turnin’ 2022 Tour,” according to Ultimate Classic Rock. The band, who’ll kick off its next string of dates on Friday (May 13th) in Pomona, California at the L.A. County Fair, will now be on the road through September 26th when Skynyrd wraps their year at Airway Heights, Washington’s Northern Quest Resort & Casino.
As expected, sole surviving original member Gary Rossington will be sidelined from the upcoming dates following emergency heart surgery. Guitarist Damon Johnson will once again sit in for him.
Skynyrd’s opening acts on the tour include former-Eagles guitarist Don Felder, the Outlaws, the Marshall Tucker Band, and the Devon Allman Project.
