      LOL. That's funny because I was actually thinking he's the Angus Young of accordion when I was watching this. I came her from the Hormel Pepperoni Ad, which in my opinion is legendary, just amazing, so catchy and energetic.

      Thanks-- Polish is one of the most difficult languages to sing... I only do very few songs as it's really challenging for me.

      @@alexmeixner Thanks for making such great music. Hey, I do daily live streams. I have cool guests occasionally and would love to have you too. I could introduce you to some of my fans. You can even play some music live with your accordion. I just did a live concert myself of my original music, with about 500 views and 48 likes! So your music would fit right in. Let me know! I want everyone to know the Hormel Pepperoni one-man band, and the guy with the cool polka music. I’m sure you could inspire my viewers.

    Alex, the way you attack the accordion reminds me of a young Leo Kottke on the 12 string guitar

    The midi bass is a genius idea.

Do u think u will be returning to Coplay soon with ur band. It would be great to come see u in ur hometown. I would be there for sure. From Terrie in Bethlehem. There will be a parade and red carpet to welcome u. And lots of happy people
