About me:
I'm a bassplayer, songwriter,record producer and a founder member of the Band Ten Years After. Please check out my web site. www.LeoLyons.org.
As of 3 years ago New Orleans was my home. I was abruptly uprooted as a result of Hurricane Katrina. So you can only imagine how heavy my heart feels this weekend watching the city preparing for the possibility of being hit by a similar sized storm. Yet I am filled with gratitude as I know that I am equipped with the ability to help those that are going to need assistance as a result of the storm. No matter where this storm hits, those there are going to need help. I am proudly announcing that I am coordinating concerts/seminars around the United States to benefit victims in need. This is resulting from my recently published book (The Remains of Hurricane Katrina), and my dream of one day being able to help victims of all types. The first of these events is being planned in New Mexico to benefit their domestic violence victims. I am asking all singers, bands and anyone that can help with these events to contact me as soon as possible. We need all the participation and help that we can acquire. The events are going to have to occur as soon as possible. Please refer to my site for further information or contact me as soon as possible, no matter who you are, if you want to help. It is true, only good results from helping others. It makes dreams come true. Sandra Speer International Marketing Consultant/Promoter Author-The Remains of Hurricane Katrina 954.718. 0733
First, I want to thank all of you who have stepped up offering your help and your encouragement.
In August of 2005, I had no idea as to whether the flood waters of Hurricane Katrina washing my home away forever was the start of my freedom to live a happy and normal life, or the end of my ever being able to have anything at all. It actually became my chance to make a dream come true that I have held in my heart over 20 years, which is to be able to help victims of all types with my story.
My dream to help victims of all types with my story is beginning to come alive with the offer of help from singers and bands in all genres, companie and venues, etc. And, I am extremely happy to announce that many who are in no need at all for extra publicity are offering to help. They state that they are offering because they know that victims need to see as many people as possible show them hope. Last but not least, I have decided that the profits from sales of books is going to go into bringing the seminars to as many victims as possible. So, I am asking that if you cannot do anything outside of ordering a book for a victim, that is enough. Remember, The Remains of Hurrican Katrina is a story of survival through disasters is life. Please offer this story of hope to anyone you know that needs to know that they can get through anything in life. If you contact me when you order the book, I will list you for all to see on my site as helping victims throughout the world. As I said, any help that you can offer will be more than appreciated throughout the world! If you have a friend that would benefit from this message, please forward this message to them. And, to make sure that the world knows you are helping, please contact me so that I can list you as one of the singers, bands, venues, companies or people helping to offer hope to victims.
Hubby and I are watching Woodstock for the bizzillionth time - damn awesome performance by Ten Years After. Love watching you groove on that bass. I've been a TYA fan since the 1970s. - DD (deaconlight. com/tenyearsafter)
Hi Leo ! so good to have you among my friends but I wish we share some stage again ...boy it was great in Hungary ! take care and maybe see you in Germany some time this fall ! love Nina Van horn
Yeah, I'd like to see you guys make it down under. Alvin's been here many years ago but it was such a low key tour, a package deal thing, and I was so busy driving trucks in those days (I worked a day job back then) that I missed it! Still, where there's life there's hope. In the meantime we have Youtube. Cheers, Jim
Hey Leo, It's just about impossible to get new material from TYA over here in Oz, so I started trawling Youtube and found heaps of recent live material from just last year. Wow! You guys sound as good as you ever did. Joe's got a similar vocal and guitar style to Alvin's, but you're probably sick of hearing that. This was the first time I'd heard the re-formed line up. Truly excellent! Cheers, Jim
