Bassist and founding member of the legendary Lynyrd Skynyrd Leon Wilkeson has died of natural causes. The band still has several dates on their current tour, the rest of the tour is obviously 'up in the air'.
RIP Leon. <img src="frown.gif" border="0">

I tip a low E string to a fallen fellow four-stringer....

Saw this thread nearing the bottom and had hardly been touched. &lt;BUMP&gt; it goes back to the top. Skynard's music has influenced a lot of people and deserves a more hearty memorial.

Thanks for the music, Leon. Rest well.
