Lynyrd Skynyrd at Choctaw Grand Theater

Sharp Dressed Simple Man Tour 2025

The Choctaw Grand Theater is about to get loud. Real loud. And rowdy. And soulful. And legendary. Because on Friday, November 21st, the gods of Southern rock themselves — LYNYRD freakin’ SKYNYRD — are pulling up for what might just be the most rip-roaring, foot-stomping, beer-raising night of your life. That’s not an exaggeration. That’s just what happens when these boys from Jacksonville take the stage. And trust us — they’ve still got plenty of gas in the tank. This stop in Durant is part of their Sharp Dressed Simple Man Tour, a full-blown celebration of 50 years of blazing guitar solos, triple-threat riff attacks, and songs that basically built the entire genre of Southern rock. You know the ones: “Sweet Home Alabama,” “Simple Man,” “Gimme Three Steps,” “Call Me the Breeze,” “What’s Your Name,” “Saturday Night Special” — and of course, that 11-minute spiritual experience called “Free Bird.” These songs aren’t just hits. They’re way of life songs. Tattoo-on-your-arm songs. Cookout, tailgate, and midnight highway songs. And you better believe they sound even better when 3,000 people are singing them at full volume inside a packed theater.

Lynyrd Skynyrd is a cultural phenomena. A family. A legacy of grit, pride, brotherhood, and never backing down from what you believe in. Even after all the years, all the wild stories, and all the heartbreak, the Skynyrd train never stopped rolling. And here in 2025, it’s rolling harder than ever — with founding member Gary Rossington’s spirit still running through every note played, and a touring band that carries the torch with fire and fury.

This isn’t some mellow sit-down-and-nod show. This is get-up-on-your-feet, raise-your-glass, scream-every-lyric, and feel something real kind of night. And there’s no better place to experience it than right here with us at Choctaw — where the sound shakes the floors and the crowd sings like a choir of Southern angels.

So come on out and let’s make some memories the Skynyrd way: loud, proud, and full of heart. Tickets are flying fast — so don’t sleep on it. We’ll see you under the lights on November 21st. Bring your boots. Bring your friends. And bring your Free Bird fingers.
