(antiMusic) Kid Rock and Lynyrd Skynyrd are planning to hit the road together this August for a North American tour but New York fans will get a sneak peak of the tour when the pair play Madison Square Garden on May 15th. This will be the first time that Skynyrd has played the garden. Here is most of the PR we were sent: Kid Rock's "Rock ˜N Roll Jesus" debuted at #1 and continues to dominate the charts as his new single "All Summer Long" is the leading contender for standout smash of the season. The companion video for the track is expected to premier in the coming weeks. Kid Rock, featuring his expanded 11-piece Twisted Brown Trucker Band, will perform the song on "The Late Show" with David Letterman on May 14th, the eve of the pair's show at New York's famed Madison Square Garden.
May 15th will mark an historic first in the legendary career of Rock ˜N Roll Hall of Fame members Lynyrd Skynyrd - their first appearance at Madison Square Garden. Lynyrd Skynyrd has been together since the seventies and has played shows around the world. With their induction into the Hall of Fame in 2006 the band has proved that after all those years they are stilling going strong. Now after all this time people will get a chance to sing along to their classics at the "World's Most Famous Arena."
