He plays guitar ( sound familiar ! ) and plans to be another Van Halen.
He is good; I advised him to have a day job as a backup!

Actually, Leonard is everywhere! Last night, at Berklee College of Music, the feature song of the concert welcoming incoming Freshman was "Everybody Knows" sung by well known jazz vocalist, Robin McFall. Everyone was standing and clapping, cheering....just like the Tour! Our son's educati...

Leonard's poetry on this theme .........


"I didn´t kill myself when things went wrong
