    Lee is so unassuming.... People are flocking to his channel cause he's a nice guy and a cool cat and he's got the best stories and the best music...and also for the bass.
    If I could only listen to one band for the rest of my life, but it was Immediate Family, I'd be a little sad, but I'd be okay with it.

I know if I had been alone back in the 70s and early 80s without my friends I would have been completely lost. No telling if I'll even be alive. You got to have a support system in your friends are the best ones as long as they're real friends! Glad these guys had each other! Peace! ✌

I watch Leland‘s Covid blogs, which you were talking about here, almost every day. And now to the point: it was a super sounding live performance and especially the first of the 3 songs (sth. about a Johny) was mind-blowing for me. The absolute best of 3 great songs! Incredibly good. Thank you for having made this possible! đŸ‘đŸ»đŸ‘đŸ»đŸ˜ŽđŸ™đŸ» Isn‘t Sweetwater in America what Thomann is in Europe?
