Lynyrd Skynyrd have called off a New York show planned for tonight (July 19) after guitarist Gary Rossington began suffering chest pains.
The co-founder had a heart attack in October, leading the cancellation of a handful of shows as he recovered.
The band say in a statement: “Gary is seeking doctor’s evaluation in Atlanta after experiencing some chest pains.

- Inside Jimi Hendrix’s first ever live gig
- Fleetwood Mac: "Green's the best blues guitarist the UK's produced"
- News in brief: Against Me, Anthrax, 5FDP, Devildriver, Ramones & more
“Lynyrd Skynyrd will resume their tour once Gary is cleared by medical professionals. We hope to reschedule in the near future.”
Last year Rossington’s family said they’d come “very close to losing him this time.” He’d undergone bypass treatment in 2003.
The band’s next scheduled appearance is set for Hyannis, Massachusetts, on July 21, as part of their North American tour with Peter Frampton.
