LOL that'll be the day when they denounce the flag- it's all over most of the lynyrd T shirts I own!
They still have it around- Remember- it was not a Flag behind them onstage- it was a Backdrop.
So now it is 2012 , and they stopped using it . Okay-they've moved on. That doesn't mean they've forgotten where they came from, or the heritage of the South. People took what was said way too seriously,I think.Even a Rainbow has a whole new meaning in Today's society. I ain't mad at them. I love lynyrd skynyrd. I got the point of what was said,and I don't think it's a big deal.My Father was from Pickering Louisiana,so, I'm half Southern. My Great uncle was captured by Yankees in Vicksburg. It's part of my heritage also..BUT-
If they don't wanna use the Confederate Flag, that is up to them. Maybe they got tired of people relentlessly giving them a hard time about it,or maybe they Got tired of seeing the same thing every single Night onstage,and just wanted to change it.
Whatever it was- it was and is their decision. .And the KKK DID use it in a lot of Rallys...I remember seeing it a lot in the 60's ,and not in a good way.. All I'm saying , is, try to see it from their point of view. Cut them some slack. Show 'em the Love.

P Rusty,

I knew you would be as well.
