I was at this concert. It was 4th of July weekend. I was 18 at the time and turn 65 in 2 months--long time ago! I was back about 30 yards and just left of center stage. It was a great concert! Skynyrd was second billing to Peter Frampton that day. Their airplane crash would happen just a couple months later. The Days on the Green concert series in Oakland were always awesome--saw so many great bands...great time to be young & free!

Thanks for the memory, partner. I'm happily in my 7th decade and well remember that plane crash as I was then writing for Cash Box, a music trade magazine. They were on our cover that week because their album ("Street Survivors") had just been released.... 3 days BEFORE the plane crash. You may remember the original MCA album cover art had the band engulfed in flames, which was eerily prophetic, especially since one of the tracks ("That Smell") had the refrain, "the smell of death around you." MCA scrambled to replace the flames (but not the song, of course) with a plain black background and we received the new cover art hours before our magazine went to press. As I recall those days, as you also seem to, I remember the lyrics from the Pink Floyd song, ("Free Four"), "The memories of a man in his old age are the deeds of a man in his prime." Thanks to RU-vid, I get to see the reactions of "youngsters" for the first time to music we thrilled to many times. There may be hope for them after all.

Lynyrd Skynyrd was the name of the band, not the singer (Ronnie Van Sant). Great reaction. I saw them in June 1977 at Philadelphia's JFK Stadium. The lineup that day was J. Giles Band, Dicky Betts With Great Southern (Dicky was from The Allman Brothers), Lynyrd Skynyrd and Peter Frampton, who had the biggest album in the world at that time. It was a beautiful day. I was 16 years old and my girlfriend was 14. We were about 30 feet from the stage. It's an experience I will never forget. Thanks for the memory.

Ronnie VanZant is the lead singer and was the leader of the band. Allen Collins guitar. Gary Rossington rhythm and slide guitars. Leon Wilkeson bass. Artimus Pyle. drums, and percussion Billy Powell piano. Thier last performance was South Carolina’s Greenville Memorial Auditorium on Oct. 19, 1977, Free Bird lasted for 20 mins The next day boarded their plane that was unsafe the Fuel gauge was broke. The only way to check the fuel was with a stick. The plane ran out of fuel the engines were burning to rich and wasting precious fuel. One engine shut down then the other did. The plane went down over pine trees killing the members of the band, Ronnie Van Zant lead singer, guitarist Steve Gaines, vocalist Cassie Gaines, that day was the saddest day in Southern Rock. I was 20 when I heard about it on the radio. I cried like a baby.

@natev1956 10 месяцев назад

Nice summary. You know all these years it's infuriated me that they could have died by running out of fuel I mean you would think that's the first thing the pilots checked like damn "basics".... this is the first time I get the info from you that the fuel gauge was actually "broken" and that they had to check the fuel by a stick,,,what the hell is up with that!? I could see doing that if you're in a car with your buddies early in life, first car or something but when you're in the 'air' I think I would want a lot better security regarding the fuel than checking with a STICK😮 Also sad to hear of last remaining original member Gary died just last March. Best band ever. Seen them live half a dozen times. One of my contracts I do the owner just saw them live with ZZ Top couple weeks ago sadly though they're kind of reduced to a cover band they should at least get Artemis back in there!

About 1/2 way through Freebird some tall, blond, long haired guy walks out on stage wearing nothing but cowboy boots and a cowboy hat. Yes, butt naked! He stands there grooving to the song while the band is tearing it up. The band is loving it, the crowd is loving it and when security starts to go out and remove him the band says leave him alone. Unforgettable! Of course he’s high, drunk or all the above. Finally after he’s up there for 5-10 minutes they haul him off. Whoever you are man, if you ever see this, from me to you and I’m sure I speak for hundreds of other people, “Thank You for making an awesome concert even more unforgettable than it would’ve been”.

So sad that later in 1977 we lost the lead singer Ronnie VanZant, the (then newest addition and outstandingly talented) guitarist Steve Gaines (shorter hair and beard in this vid) and his sister, back-up singer Cassie Gaines in a plane crash. It took them many years to come back but they finally did with Ronnie’s youngest brother Johnny VanZant as the lead vocalist in the very late 80s. I saw them a handful of times live between 1990 and 1996 in my teens and early twenties and they always always shook the ground! We’ve now lost every single original member of this amazing group but there is NO doubt their legacy will remain.

The crowd turned absolute crazy... later the Stones played. Then they asked what encore they wanted. The crowd called "Free Bird". That is the absolute insult to every other band, because NOBODY could play Freebird without training weeks or months for it. There is even a meme about "Free bird" for other bands to be demanded to play :D

😂 That was a joint those guys were passing around in the end. And yes, passing around a joint was very common back then, especially at outside concerts. I was about 20 or 21 at the time of this concert.

Three months after this concert the lead vocalist and founding member Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist and vocalist Steve Gaines, backing vocalist Cassie Gaines (Steve's older sister) died in a plane crash...this song has a different meaning to me now

The last surviving original member, Gary Rossington (he's the one playing slide guitar on the Gibson Marauder)just passed away. As the Righteous Brothers said "If you believe in forever, then life is just a one night stand! If there's a Rock and Roll Heaven, then you know you've got a hell of a band!". RIP LYNYRD SKYNYRD!

I was lucky enough to see therm about a month before the plane crash. You can see 2 of the 3 band members that died. The lead singer. The guitar player that you can't see much of until the end with the beard white shirt and dark pants. and his sister a back up singer you don't see.

Great reaction - Yeah, this was a great performance and the crowd looks like a giant pot of lobsters. Sun screen? Bah! It's Oakland in `77! 😏

@natev1956 10 месяцев назад

A giant pot of lobsters😅😅😅...well put. I'm a big Skynyrd fan and seen them live about a half-dozen times but I was born in the mid-70s didn't get to see them with Ronnie singing of course but his brother Johnny but when I went to concerts in the 90s seeing Pearl Jam, Tool, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Tragically Hip etc and all the alternative rock, myself along with the whole crowd would jump and just pump our fists and kind of smash into each other, we'd form mosh pits tgat I barely survived,,,,, rarely did I ever see people just innocently clapping to the beat like I see here back then.

Well-played, grandma, on Lulu's comment on the two guys sharing a "cigarette." Too funny. I saw them in Athens, GA before they were this big. Opening act was Mother's Finest, which you guys may have heard of and would enjoy checking out, too. I'm sure grandpa knows them. Enjoyed your reaction!

Mid 60's now likely. 2023-1976 =47,,,,, Plus if they were say 17 at the time yeah theyr up there wee bit😅. Maybe a gilf...no?

@kevinmclaughlin8975 10 месяцев назад

Saw them in 1987 on the reunion tour that spawned Southern By The Grace of God" and again in 2018 on the Last of the Street Survivors tour. Two very different concerts, but both amazing shows. Fun side note: The hat that Ronnie was wearing was made by Texas Hatters in Lockhart, TX. They also made the hat SRV wore.

The young lady on the right side (Donna) of the frame... the slight smile... of knowing what is coming... makes me smile.... ROCK ON! And just think... most of those guys and gals in that crowd.... are somebody's grandma/grandpa today!!! - Where are y'all from? You sound like home.... Something else to think about... there are three guitarist taking turns in the jam.... but ONE bassist....

Ladies, I WAS AT THIS CONCERT. I was 18, and had saved up to afford the tickets for myself and my girlfriend. And yes, it was fantastic. As I've told many people, on the 4th of July weekend, it was the most fun you could possibly have with your 40,000 best friends. An event I'll remember forever.

The purpose of the beer was not to get a buzz but to cool him down as they also gave beer to football players. This was before Gatorade. They did think it had a cooling effect.

concert was held at Oakland Coliseum where the A's played baseball and the Raiders played football. Tickets to this were $11. Peter Frampton was the "headliner" but Skynrd stole the show!
