Some of us may never get there to see all these places but it is a real treat to share every footstep with you Lee. Cheers to everyone and please look after yourself. 👍🇦🇺
Reminds me of downtown Orange when they close the 4 streets around the circle for the International Street Fair! I loved how as you were walking around and the different types of music were heard as you made your circuit! Made me think of the Beach Boys "Add some Music to your Day!"
Wow, Leland. I was just listening to "Stratus" covered by Gov't Mule with John Scofield. It was so good, I decided to listen to the original with YOU from '72. Then while Im listening, I get this notice at the top that says you're an hour away from me in McKinney, Texas! 😎 Yall have a great show, brother. ✌️
On disability from a whip lash since 93 and living in Thailand since 2000 your walks take me places I'll never see. One old time guitar guy named Jorma lived down the road a peace from my home farm in Ohio. I've been told I used to talk to him in the 90's but had no idea who he was.
In the town of Kilsyth near where I live in Glasgow Mr Sklar , there is a road called ' Tak Me Doon ' road ,which translates into Scottish vernacular as 'Take Me Down ' road ! I'm guessing there aren't too many roads or streets in Texas , with such names over there ? It won't be too long until they name a road or street after yourself ...Leland Sklar Street ! Yes , that's got a nice ring to it ! Very fitting ... Have a good one ....thinking of Mr Bruce Knight at this time too .
I see this time last year you were in lil' ol' Modesto with the film. It was a great pleasure to "meet" you there (my brush with celebrity for the millennium). Best wishes for more adventures to come.
Hello lee. Nice video. Love the comeback you gave. Without you we are just rehearsing. So true. A good relationship with the pa is a must. Greetings brother. 😎
Hey, man, I enjoyed the tour. Years ago I played piano for a musical there in the courthouse. There's a performance space in that building. Hope tonight's gig goes well -- I'm sure it will.
Will be a good night in McKinney, TX. Spent Thur. and Fr. with Mark Brooks and his sister, LeeAnne, at the Walter Ginter Botanical Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. Dig this, LeeAnne is an historical conservationist who spent years working at Williamsburg. And, Mark and sis love the botanical garden. Cannot imagine better guides, now friends, to spend time with. Love and Thanks ❤👍❤👍
Good early morning, Lee! 🥰 Love these outdoor venues. They are the best! This is just the warmup to a great summer of tunes at amazing venues! So excited! Hope you all had a great show tonight! Love you, bunches!!!:🎸🎶🥰😎
Hey, you’re about 5 hours away from my little Texas town. Austin is only 2. I may indulge myself, and come see y’all. I love Lyle Lovett. He was great in The Player “One of us. One of us.” Also, I want to commend you on your camera work. I noticed in your Savannah video you’re not even using a steady cam. All hand held. New subscriber - takes a lot to get me to do that. Rock on!
Friday, June 7: Lukas Nelson /Jason Boland & The Stragglers / Angel White / Prophets & Outlaws/ Katrina Cane /Ryder Grimes + MANY MORE! Saturday, June 8: Lyle Lovett /Ray Wylie Hubbard /Lola Kirke /Gabe Lee /Jamie Richards /Two Tons of Steel + MANY MORE! Also performing are C. Thomas Howell (the actor who recently released a country album), The Buffalo Ruckus, Blackbird Sing, & George Dunham & the Birddogs.
“Old Town” is a part of every large Texas town - even the large metro areas like Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio and Houston have those commerce districts
I went to Texas on a business trip . They took us to a rodeo in the hill country . After it finished , they were leading all the horses out . I remarked " hand me those firecrackers " ! 😂 The help had evil in their eyes . I don't think I would have made it out alive if I did it ! Enjoy the tour !
This is why I love small towns but man I can not take the heat. Toronto is hovering around 20 celsius. Way more cool. Got to get you guys here. Been working on it dontcha know.
I live in Plano which is about 15 miles from downtown McKinney where they are. It’s a great old square with shops and eateries but it’s HOT in Texas now. Leland, come back in January and you’ll love it.
@@KittyCarlile-490 My neighbors were going at it last night at 11:30 P.M. One decided to power wash his driveway then because it was cooler. "For God sake Bob it's 11:30 F!@$#%^&* at night. So in retaliation because Bob wouldn't turn it off, the woman's husband got into his truck rolled the windows down and started blasting Ted Nugent Stranglehold. At this point Robert on the other side came out opened up a folding chair and yelled over to me "Grab a chair this could get good."
@@randyschiffer3265 Hi Randy, Would have gotten back to you sooner but internet service was down in my area. ..Be grateful your neighbors don't scream n shout, wash their vehicles every night. I had neighbors years ago that went at it most every night around 1 am until the break of dawn. I thought about calling the cops a few times but another neighbor beat me to the punch. Besides I was afraid they would figure out it was me then both of them would scream at me THEN I would have to call the cops. It's important to have good, quiet neighbors who don't wash their vehicles at midnight
sunglasses girl at 6:57 -been a while in your vids Le. She was in charge of something with the large band shows awhile back? Her folks showed up at one of your gig walk throughs I think? Either way always a nice walk with you bud, hopefully gig was good.
Hehe, people are putting their chairs hours before the concert?!?? We Germans are well known for placing our towels on the deck chairs of the hotel swimming pool at 5am but this is even better… guess these Texans have all German roots 🤪
having been in heavy rotation for so many years with so many top selling artists, I am very interested to know your thoughts on the transition from carbureted engines to ecu controlled fuel injected systems. any thoughts?

How cool! I didn’t know I was going to McKinney Texas today! Thanks for taking us along, Leland! Have fun!
Leland, please be careful due to the heat! Have always enough to drink at your hand. And wear a hat! You are in Texas, right at the source... ;-)
Don't think I've ever seen Lee in a hat - can that be right?

@@randyschiffer3265 aw yeah! That's highway music. ✌️
Thanks for a tour of the town my grandson lives in! Too bad he doesn’t have the good sense to go to the music festival. Have a great time!
😂 I hope he sees this comment
The Summer tour is firing up! Can't wait for Red Rocks in July! Always a spiritual experience.
So cool you got to see Bob Malone twice at DFW!! He was excited to see you!! ❤

That would be Jorma Kaukonen from Hot Tuna and Jefferson Airplane
Always look forward to the times of year that you go on tour with Lyle to see your wonderful videos of people, towns, and venues!
Wish we coulda video from Palm Springs event.

McKinney TX, the actual hometown of legendary pro wrestler Haystacks Calhoun.
I remember that guy battling Dick the Bruiser.
Even here in Australia he was known.
I was playing a club in Los Angeles back in the mid 60’s and Haystack was there.

Cute town! Love the truck❤Are you playing with Lyle? Stay cool! Too hot
Would the lamppost in the middle of the crowd be considered obstructed viewing?

You wold love the ice cream, from where I live got to be the best I've ever tasted 'Joe' Casscarini founded in 1922
Next time you go by the food trucks could you get a little closer so I can get a scratch and sniff off the screen.
Of tacos. I've been hungry for them but it's too hot to go outside
