That ain't Skynyrd. It's a tribute band who looks and sounds like Skynyrd. Rossington is the ONLY one left of the original group. Powell was originally a roadie and Medlocke played drums for a short time. Skynyrd died on October 20, 1997 with the plane crash.

So, yeah, they probably are getting some royalties and enjoying the cash flow and the chance to tour. Skynyrd used to be the MAIN act and not an opening act, at least not since the early days. Oh well.
