Look really closely in Trace Adkins ear and you'll see a Confederate Flag on his ear piece.

HE caused a stir by wearing it during his performance at the Rockefeller Center tree lighting last night.

Some consider the Confederate flag a representation of racism, while others consider it a symbol of southern pride. Trace, who has an ancestor who fought in the Civil War, is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans.
