    Almost sad to watch this, Lemmo should have had a record deal. These are really good songs ,that are well played live. Norm's comment, "Lemmo in limo next time he comes here", is surreal. He's a beast at what a does, I hope he catches the break he's looking for. Also, KUDOS, to Norm, for staying with people he knows are good. It's really awesome, and I will make it to the store soon to support them.

      Music deals mean nothing these days. Long gone are the days when talented people could make a fortune selling albums. It's all about performance. It's why I no longer listen to music, but watch it.

    The fact Lemmo didn't "make it" big should be enough to scare most people out of pursuing music as a career. His level of talent is off the charts and he's a brilliant songwriter

      @mylogify 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @xxczerxx disagree, when you don't have albums, doesn't mean you didn't make it. First of all, wherever you play guitar, wherever you are, work, whatever, when you are happy, that's what matters. He'd have chased being popular, famous, we don't know if it was his primary thing. He's looking pretty comfortable where he is, what he does in his life. Touring, being musician is also not easy, requires a lot of work etc. One can not always want that path in life, like playing soccer, basketball... Not every good player will wanna be a sports player, they can do something else and choose to to something else. Nobody should be scared of anything, do whatever you love.
