Time to rename the band touring around now as LS. Clearly 1 original member left in the band does not make an entire name. RIP Powell..thanks for the tunes.

IIRC, the agreement with Ronnie Van Zant’s widow was they could call themselves Lynyrd Skynyrd as long as Rossington and two other original members were in the group (saw this mentioned in an article after Leon Wilkeson died). I also seem to recall that Gary Rossington is not on speaking terms with any of the other surviving original members.

I guess if Skynyrd continues, it’ll have to be under a new name.
