Lynyrd Skynyrd had to cancel three shows after lead singer Johnny Van Zant required emergency surgery to remove his appendix. After toughing out a couple shows, Van Zant finally saw a doctor and had the surgery last Thursday in Palo Alto, CA. Skynyrd shows in Mountain View, CA, 29 Palms, CA and Henderson, NV had to be cancelled during Van Zant's recovery. Make-up dates have yet to be announced.
