Lynyrd Skynyrd, Huron, SD

Legendary southern rockers Lynyrd Skynyrd played the South Dakota State Fair in Huron on September 2, 2017. It was my first taste and I was very impressed.

Had a nice chat backstage with guitarist Rickey Medlocke about our mutual love of Korina Explorer guitars and he told me the story of buying his used from a blind musician who had hundreds of instruments. Thanks to Mike Wolforth for the picture of me with Rickey.

After all the goofy clichés of rock fans yelling out "Freebird!" and at any concert it was amazing to actually hear the song live. I was only a casual Skynyrd fan before, but wow are these guys good in concert.
