This is definitely a HUGE thing for me, he was my favourite pianist >.< I had just started playing piano at Christmas and got a book of Lynyrd Skynyrd songs to learn on piano... the first thing I learned was the intro to piano.
I have all of their albums and I was hoping to see them live this year with Billy..guess that won't happen.
RIP Billy and the other members that have died.

Sad to hear. I played in a Southern Rock/metal band when I was in high school and I lived and breathed Skynyrd for a few years. Powell was the soul and glue of the band, despite the line-up changes over the years. Very talented guy. Here's one more for the road. :thumb: :( :cool:
R.I.P. Billy (and Ronnie, and Steve, and Cassie, and Leon, and Artemus, and...)
