These tour updates have become must see TV!
Ohhh how cool is that place!!! What could better!!!! Great music 🎶 good food and wine.
As I always say….. Don’t forget to take care of the servers☺️! Really like the intimacy of the tables…..SWEET…That house will be rockin!!! Thank you Leland ,and all the crew. Continued blessings to you all🌹🪷🌹🪷🌹🪷🥰🕊🪬🕊🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻👍
I love how different and uniquely beautiful these venues are.
Yes, it's fascinating to see how different all the venues are, in age, size, setting and style.
Agreed, was just about to write the same thing. Must keep it interesting for the crew and band.
I can’t say it enough…thanks for these tours!
Thanks Leland for the Tour... Nice.😲💙💜💛💚👍🤘pretty cool is Right
A Winery!! my type of place!! Specially if they serve a good red...Thanks for the great tour Lee...
You've finally graduated to the Dinner theatre ! Ha ha . Philly has soo many great small and medium venues. Always a pleasure to gig there. The history alone is mind blowing and when it comes to food the Reading Terminal Market is worth checking out !
I've had several false starts for shows at City Winery Philly. Your video tour has inspired me to try a little harder to catch some shows there. Thanks Lee...
Hey, Lee and all! We have a City Winery in my town, too. To complement, we have at least a few dozen City Winos.
His swag is humorous but cool, nice stuff. You're very close by to where I live now. I left Philly 20 years ago to go down to the jersey shore.. but it never left me. City Winery is so nice.
I actually prefer (now that I'm older, hehe) the small venues like this. And the AC helps. Hi everyone. Kick butt tonight Lee!
Heard so much about this venue now I can really see it . Thank you Lee !
That is cool so it is like a dinner theatre????? Fun!!!!!
Now, that´s the place i would play and be happy. Cozy, nice and small. 😃
Thousands of bottles of wine on the spiral staircase ! Congrats on the new duds ! Thank You As Always!
Not the singer. Had the name before he was famous 😁. Awesome vids Lee. Really enjoy seeing a bit of the life of a touring musician. Kinda living vicariously thru them. 👍
Wow…my favorite picture of Led Zeppelin…..but what a surprise to see it there! The thought of hearing Zeppelin (or a similar group) in a room that size…..YIKES! But what a great, intimate experience for all the lucky folks who will be privileged to see you all over the next few nights. Thanks again, Lee, for all your sharing. Rest up.
Love this picture as well. Shows how tiny engines were at that time, almost like hair rollers. Nowadays engines are that huge that you could drive though them with a VW bus…🤓
oh oops… are you possibly referring to the persons on that picture? 🤔
I can’t remember if it was Jim Marshall or Robert Knight who took that photo of Zep. Fairly certain it was one of the two. Wanna say it was the latter.

@gotham61
Correct, that’s one reason. But the main reason is that this aircraft has turbojet engines (Pratt & Whitney J57s). Todays engines are high by-pass turbofan engines with a huge fan in front of the engine.
Evening Lee and all
Greetings from Epping,UK
Cheers Barry 🎸
Hey Barry!
@@Winston01
Hi Winston
Yay! A new jacket❣️😊
Leland: Such A nice new lightweight suit, wear it in good health ! Those seats appear to be a bit uncomfortable to sit in for three to four hours.
So glad a friend turned me on to your channel!! Thanks for taking us in your journey 👏🎶
Great change of scenery. Go give ‘em a dose of your magical oscillating moonbeams!
Tight indeed in more ways than one with the wine service. Might be like the intro to Turtle Blues by Big Brother & Janis all night long. Have fun.
I think you'll really enjoy playing there for several nights...love city winery! Thx Lee
Lee, it looks like the venue is pretty tight for the audience too. At least with 4 nights, it should work out and it's always mellow at a winery. Have a great night!
It's actually not as tight for the audience as it looks. Been there a few times and it's ok. Looking forward to seeing Lyle again.
Saw Dirty Dozen Brass Band on the wall. They are tremendous. You'd love the bass player Kirk Joseph ( frogman's son) he plays his Tuba(Sousaphone) like an string bass and he seems to incorporate Motown bottoms to the jazzy songs they have.
Another gorgeous venue, Lee. I'm glad you have a "base" for a few days and can get a little rest between gigs. Have a blast!
Something tells me you are going to have red teeth with all the Cabernet that surrounds you. Beautiful Winery 🍷 Cheers
Amazing place........have fun
Cool space. I love CW in Philly. Frequented the old CW in NYC. Haven’t been to the new one yet.
This room reminds me ever so slightly of The Birchmere in Alexandria VA. Similarly, everyone can eat dinner and it seats about 500. Saw David Crosby, Colin Hay, Ashley Monroe and Tom Rush there (different nights all). For those trying to find similar venues in the DC area.
Thanks for the tour!
Wow those are going to be some nice, intimate, shows. Hopefully you get the chance to explore Philly and have a few cheese steaks 😊👍
Was there tonight. I was a violinist, radio DJ and a dedicated music lover. It’s such a pleasure listening to great musicians. Thank you so much for sharing your gift. Hope you had as much fun as we did.
Thank you. Totally enjoyed it.
🎵99 bottles of wine on the wall, 99 bottles of wine. Take one down, pass it around…..🎵 Have a great show!
Interesting room, thanks 😊 for the walk through! Have a good evening, a great show!
Cool place they have you packed in but Neatly so!!!
Four nights..great..in the house nice place.If lived there I would be all worked up...enjoy your stay.Be safe,stay safe...Leland Sklar.
Neat venue for your mini-residency. Different and intimate. Russ is in his home state! Hope you are holed-up in nice digs!
You're going to LOVE August 11 at Shelburne Museum! Be sure to look at Lake Champlain, THE most historic lake in the U.S. and maybe check out Shelburne Farms next door, the first country Vanderbilt estate in the U.S. I'm going to scream out "Hi Leland!" as I volunteer for the show.
What a nice space! Enjoy your time 🎶
Cool, wish I was in Philly. Would love to see another Lyle show. The only person I've seen more than Lyle is Neil Young.
Can’t wait to see the show tomorrow (Thurs) night, Leland! We’ll be just left of center stage, second row. Woo hoo 🎸🐶
Nice to see Russ in there! The wall immediately reminded me of the one you signed in Bill Schnee’s studio. 😄
Welcome Lee to Philly. Definitely not Lancaster 😂😂😂, but you’ll enjoy yourself while you’re here. Enjoy the sights and the food!
Tight indeed in more ways than one with the bar setup. Be like the intro to
These videos are really amazing. Even if you were familiar with the diversity of venues (and you have done a bunch we have never heard of), it's amazing to see them juxtaposed with each other day after day and seeing this unfold week after week.
A green Green room!
Question. Can somebody tell us if there has been a change in the definition of swag over the years? Originally it was (free) stuff we all get if attending the event or having paid to go to that event. We are offered use of a merch table (though we are, of course, merchless. Back when we were much younger and even more naive we did put out ID swag of no commercial value which, of course, only one person took).😁😁
We just refer to swag as stuff that is for sale. I know what you mean though. A different usage back in the days.
@@lelandsklar6363 Thanks! Apropos of nothing, I believe that Toni Morrison has a character utter "Pig Meat" (while watching a young female character walk by) in the novel Sula.
I was was at the City Winery in Atl to see Peter Asher with Jeremy Clyde. We were fortunate to be right up front and our table had some very interesting folks. I made a friend with the gal next to me, we bonded while sharing our eclectic musical tastes. Surprisingly, we had so many in common. ♥️
Thanks for the tour! Stay safe it there and keep making music. 😉
Allen Hinds uses Xotic Guitars and does shows supporting their products!
Good evening Leland and friends
Oh hell, Lyle was singing ''....Pig Meat". Due to hearing impairment, I thought he was singing "....Big Meat". Well... that gets added to my long list of misunderstood phrases that my friends find hysterical. Crap. Anyhoo. nice venue! (Even found space for a stage mixer, impressive) :)
😆😆😂😂
I enjoy seeing the diverse types of venues you're playing on this tour. I thought we were about to get an interview with Russ around the 6:30 mark, but clearly he was focused on his sound check. Hopefully sometime soon!
Will grab Russ after a sound check. Too much to do beforehand
@@lelandsklar6363 Many thanks! Russ is the epitome of a tasty drummer. His work with Warren Zevon, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor, and Dan Fogelberg are some of my favorites.
Thanks Lee Tell all to have a great show tonght!!!!
Nice and got to see Russ doing his sound check
That's got to be a really live room!
Russ's drums sound soo good!😁
these videos are just the best
City of brotherly love 🙂
Lookin' good! Thanks, Lee.
Leland!
Wonder where Brad is practicing!🎷😀✌
Those repurposed barrels hung from the ceiling are to help with the acoustics
On my TH-cam recommendations/feed I've watched video from Red Rock, Indy (with Chris Issaks), Iowa. Hoping to see more. Enjoy your channel that's made me aware of so much.
How very civilized!! Enjoy a smoothie or two for us Lee.
@leland sklar - Was at the show last night with my wife. The show was really great and we especially enjoyed the band introduction / nickname roundtable. Wish we could have heard each band members reply to Lyle but he really does a great job replicating to the audience. Incredibly witty and kind. Really cool venue too.
Cool Guitar James!!!!
I remember seeing the Everly Brothers playing a gig like this with a minimum order paid up front and all served at once. See why you want light weight suit it is 93 degrees today and tomorrow. Thank you for a visit and walk about.
Hey Leland,
I don't want to "get shot down" by all the Led Zeppelin fans, but a huge poster of The Immediate Family would look cool up on the wall in the Winery..... Just saying... say safe buddy... best wishes from New Zealand.
Yeah, I adore Zeppelin, but it does seem a tad out of place in a chic little venue like that.
“It’s hot as hell in Philadelphiaaaaaaa!” - Dr. Craig (William Daniels), St. Elsewhere
Totally different from some of your previous venues, but I’m sure non the less enjoyable for the audience. 😁
I see those casks and think "Amontillado?!"
A little over equipped for that size of venue. The big guys have a lot of trouble down sizing.
My band "TheBearcats" where opening for 54/40 at an outdoor venue. I was not needed as they had a much bigger PA than I.. but I went along for the ride.
It ended up down pouring in buckets. They cancelled the show and we moved into the bar. We now had a bar with over 300 people in it and no band. I asked the 54/40 techs if they could bring in part of the PA. They said no, it is all integrated.
I knew we had our own mics, and our Keyboardist had an old tube 4 channel Yamaha mixer he used to mix his keys. The property owner sourced some bose901's and I set up a stage that worked like the 60's.. sound off stage and rigged the mics using the old Mixer and Bose.
The sound was some what questionable...lol however the "TheBearcats" where the stars of the show and 54/40 was our audience...lol
Great video.
We've been to Philly a lot but never ventured to the City Winery. Sounds like another great venue.
Last time we were there in 2019 before Covid we went to Chris' Jazz Club. It was a good time!!!
We've also be fortunate to see a few concerts at the Mann Center.
Hoping to get back there sometime, maybe 2023.
Take care, stay safe and God Bless You all.
Don't forget to check out the Reading Terminal Market!!
City Winery in Philly opened up in late 2019. It was only open for a few months before the pandemic hit.
Thanks for letting me know that Jim. I hope to get there next time we're in Philly.
What a cool room!
H&M is a Swedish company and have a huge warehouse here in my hometown.
Interesting to hear how it goes. It looks a bit boomy
A bit of a challenge at sound check. Needs people in it.
@@lelandsklar6363 I was wondering about that, honestly..
I've never been to one before this. You know how you get an idea in your head of what you think it's going to look like? Mine was a dark large wine cellar type of thing. Instead it looks like a hospital cafeteria.
@@randyschiffer3265 A bit of both
@@lelandsklar6363 I believe those wood crates hanging from the ceiling are more for acoustic purposes.
Evening Leland
✋🏼
Leland I have been a big fan of your work since the 70s. My friend Larry (Big Larry) met you today and talked up my daughter who has been attending University in England for the past 3 years. Larry said you wanted to hear some of her stuff. Her name is Jordan Nelson and her stage name is “Ferne” her stuff is on TH-cam, Spotify and iTunes. Her latest single “Headache” was picked up by the BBC and has been included on their Alternative new artists of 2022. She writes, performs and produces all of her stuff. Check her out at your convenience and let me know what you think. It’s nice to see young kids these days being creative. Her music is a conglomeration of many genres (alt, pop, punk, etc.). Great to see you playing some cool venues in our hometown of Philly. Cheers!

Will check her out!
Take a trip down Kensington Ave to see the heroin/fentanyl capital of America!
Or just take a look at a street tour here on YT. Very scary stuff to see the zombies clustered on street corners.
Theres a street like it in every city in the usa
thanks for this dude!!
Good thing they don't get a lot of earthquakes in Philly. I would not want to be at the bottom of that staircase!
Question: What's the longest tour you've ever been on? And, what's the longest period of time between visits home?
About one year. With Phil Collins in 1990. Home very little that year.
I have to ask who has the job of picking/booking the venues as they have one of the best jobs ever. This one is unique and different. Maybe a dumb question but how do they actually pick the venues Lee? I started my musicianship by becoming a self taught drummer in the early 70s and boy oh boy I felt like I was sitting behind that kit with Russ. Beautiful set of skins. Thank you brother for the walk through and enjoy the venue. I think this one is going to be amazing. 👍👌🙏
Not involved at all in that end of things!
@@lelandsklar6363 l can understand why brother. Whoever does it has a big job.
@@steven_scattergood Just glad to play what they book.
@@lelandsklar6363 That is what it is all about. Let it be someone else’s hassle. I absolutely loved your revisit to my old friend Billy and I miss him so much. Nichelle Nichols was the actress from Star Trek you couldn’t remember.
Nice place.
I'll bet Lyle could do a great cover of Jerry lee Lewis' "Drinkin' Wine Spo-de-oh-de"
Actually a bit bigger than it looks. According to Google it seats 160/225 standing. Do they normally serve food and beverages shows?
Lee , I can see that in City Winery you drink french water !!
Hello lee and everyone. At the end Russ was killing it. Loved it. Sounded great.
Have a swinging evening tonight lee. Greetings.
Sounds almost like this famous drum fill from „ In the air tonight“
😎👍❤🖖
Love Brother
Thank you
Now THAT'S a wine cask!
The City Winery has a very loud atmosphere but hopefully that will dissipate as people fill the room. Where’s Brad, I hope he hasn’t taken previous comments the wrong way because we love listening to him practicing!
Great gig for a wino.
❤
Last time Lyle was here in VT Shelburne Museum, he bought a Harley and pulled out cash from his pocket! Do you do sound checks? And how many bass guitars do you take on tours?
We do sound checks every day and I have two basses. One for the show and one as a back up just in case something happens to the other.
I almost couldn’t tell if that was Robert Plant or Le clean shaven in his younger days.
Looks like you guys are playing a lunch room lol
One two. One. Nay nay.
Someone has to tell him that the number he is looking for is…… drum fill…. 3!!!!! 🤓
But, but, but... Where's Brad? 😲😁
1. 1 2. 1. 1. Hey hey. 1. 1 2. 1. 1. How does that guy decide whether to go with just a 1 or a 1 2 or a hey hey and what exactly is he listening for?
You need to pull a prank on Lyle and record it.
