Southern rock icons Lynyrd Skynyrd will perform Tuesday, Aug. 5, at Legendary Buffalo Chip Campground during the annual Sturgis motorcycle rally.

"Lynyrd Skynyrd has always been one of the bands most requested by the Sturgis rally campers who choose the Buffalo Chip," Rod Woodruff, campground owner, said in a prepared release.

"Their showmanship and musicianship is unmatched by anyone in rock."

In March 2006, the band, and original members Ronnie Van Zant,

Gary Rossington, Allen Collins, Ed King, Steve Gaines, Leon Wilkeson,

Billy Powell, Bob Burns and Artimus Pyle, were inducted into the Rock

and Roll Hall of Fame.

Their songs "Free Bird" and "Sweet Home Alabama" are popular among the bikers who come to the Sturgis Rally.
