Ron Reyes out of Black Flag

Posted in Bands on December 3, 2013

The current incarnation of Black Flag has fired Ron Reyes from the band during a performance in Australia. According to Reyes, with only a few songs left, Mike Vallely of Good For You took over the final few songs as Reyes was subsequently axed.

Says Reyes:

The writing was on the wall since before we played our first show. So many things went wrong from the start...How could I dare be a fan of OFF! And or be friends and a fan of Flag? I was told that I had to chose sides...There were some magical moments at first. I was naive enough to believe in the promise of potential. But in the end the good was no match for the overwhelming bad. It am proud of my contributions including the new album and it's [sic] cover. 

Black Flag, with Greg Ginn on guitar, is set to release What The... this month, the band's first record since 1985's In My Head
