Lynyrd Skynyrd played before the Coke 600 this weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway. A lot of the members are no longer alive, and the group is now fronted by Johnny Van Zandt. He is the late Ronnie Van Zant's brother.

According to Foxnews, you can now buy the home the Van Zant brothers grew up in located in Jacksonville Florida. The home was purchased by a group in 2015 for just over 67K. The home is on the market for $629,000 and comes with eight lots, a fourplex home, and a manufactured home.

The property also includes a historical marker that was placed in the front yard in 2018. The sign reads, "The Van Zants’ legacy, memorialized in this house, commemorates their prodigious contribution to the world of rock music."
