.38 Special has made a habit the last few years of hitching their wagon to stars. This summer is no exception as the boys saddle up to support Lynyrd Skynyrd’s summer amphitheater tour along with Poison’s Bret Michaels.

Donnie Van Zant sings and plays guitar in .38 Special, while younger brother Johnny sings lead vocals for Skynyrd, making the tour a bit of a Van Zant reunion. Their late brother and Skynyrd founding member, Ronnie, died in a plane crash in October 1977.

Tour stops begin June 10 in West Palm Beach, and then includes shows in Houston, Birmingham, Detroit, Chicago, Indianapolis, and Hartford, to name a few. 38 Special tickets are now a triple threat, so get yours today!
