It’s half a band now anyway.

Stop playing all of them live.

They are just a blues cover band according to that Paul McCartney fellow.

Lame they will stop playing that song.

If they don't want to play that song anymore, that's up to them.

If you don't like it, don't buy a ticket to their concert.

Exactly my thought here.

Yeah, there is a lot of virtue signaling going on out there. But, not all these things are just virtue signaling.

While I’m sure there was some Twitter beef somewhere out there on this, I don’t recall too much of a buzz on it that the band would have felt they need to cave to.

Its highly likely they just don’t want to play this song anymore.
