Lynyrd Skynyrd concert chronology

Street Survivors Tour was the sixth major concert tour by American Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd. The tour took place in North America, Europe and for the first time Asia.

What turned out to be the final tour of the original band had the ominous title, "Tour of the Survivors", and truly was as three band members were killed in a plane crash on October 20, 1977, the day after their show on October 19, 1977, in Greenville, South Carolina, which was the fourth date of their forty-five day tour. The band was flying to the next date of its tour in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
